<p>mamenyu-thanks so much. He did visit Oberlin, but not Grinnell. I agree, I think he will have to have seen both to make a choice. I have heard that Grinnell is clique-y, and feels small. I don’t think he appreciates how remote it is either. He is a northeast kid from a major metropolitan area. </p>
<p>I was very reassured, from the visit to Oberlin, that he’ll be engaged, challenged and supported academically. He didn’t really share his social impressions with me, though.</p>
