They are both lovely schools with beautiful campuses.

Union’s traditional strength has been in sciences and engineering, though the humanities/social sciences are strong.

Conn. College’s traditional strength has been in social science/humanities although their sciences are solid.

Conn. College has an excellent study abroad program and stresses internationalism.

Conn. College will be more moderate in terms of the whether. The LI Sound is a moderating influence. There is a ferry to LI very near campus and the water is always there.

They are both good schools with similar student bodies, though I would guess Conn C might be slightly preppier.
