I have a D at Oberlin. What constitutes a “better atmosphere” depends on the individual and his or her needs or desire. One person’s nirvana is another person’s hell. What kind of atmosphere are you looking for or desire? Kenyon has outstanding creative writing opportunities, while Oberlin tends to produce significantly more graduates that pursue PhDs. I don’t know anything about Colorado College except what PelicanDad said about the surrounding community. And you have to ask yourself, if CC is academically rigorous (I don’t know this for a fact) how much time are you going to have to spend outdoors? The evangelical, militaristic community would be too much of a downer for me.
