<p>As far as crime, there are areas of Newark that are less safe and sad to hear that last week a U of D student, living in an off campus apt. , was raped and murdered. I don’t believe anything like that has happened before but it is worth noting.</p>
<p>I think Mass is bigger and the weather not as good as Del. unless you like to ski/snowboard. I think DEl. is also seen as a “rising” institution that keeps improving its academics. I agree that the sports areas are little further away but that is not uncommon in large schools.</p>
