<p>I wouldn’t pick Carlton over Grinnel because it is supposedly more prestigious.</p>
<p>They are roughly equivalent.</p>
<p>Don’t just pick a school because it is somewhat higher ranked. Pick the school that best fits your personality.</p>
<p>I would pick Grinnell over Carlton if you are looking for kind of a left wing, hippie, political protest type of school (which is the reason my son is NOT applying to Grinnell)</p>
<p>Also, picking a school based on whether it is environmentally aware or not in my view is not a very good reason.</p>
<p>With all due respect, you are being too PC. Would you really take a pass on Harvard if you found out it was NOT environmentally aware?</p>
