<p>Probably people who’ve always been family or small-town/school people, who enjoy that sort of tight-knit social cohesion and support. (Not people who necessarily live in a small town, if they don’t like it, but those who do like it or those who wish they did.) I like my family, but I wanted a university for the same reasons I was looking forward to not living in their house any more. I’d guess that jumping into a supportive college would be an easier and happier thing for people who are afraid of being homesick than those who are less ambivalent about leaving home.</p>
