<p>Well, there plenty of artsy kids around since we have a music school and a theatre program here, and definitely no shortage of nerdy students. Unless you’re actively seeking the greek scene, I don’t think the existence of the frats should really be a bother. Either way, both are great schools so just go with which you think is the best fit for you. Btw, did you visit the campus yet?</p>
<p>I don’t know much about the astronomy/physics department here, but I’ll just say that the cosmology class I took last quarter was the best class I’ve ever taken. Also, we have the Dearborn telescope on campus which was the first to discover a white dwarf and was actually the biggest telescope in the world for a short time!</p>
