Colorado School of Mines Vs. WPI

<p>I am wondering which school I should attend. I like the outdoors of CSM but I am concerned that there will be too many people involved in their studies to have fun. WPI seems like a great campus and cool hands on project based learning but it seems like the only thing people do there for fun is join frats.</p>

<p>Does any one have advise or any insight on the social scene of these schools. I also would like to know which one has more project based or hands on classes/labs.</p>

<p>Thanks</p>
