<p>From the Oberlin website. I think it's current info. Two things I really like: One of the largest and best libraries among liberal arts colleges, and regional balance in the student pop. I'm pleasantly surprised to learn the regional distribution at Oberlin balances the NE (Mid-Atlantic + New England) with the Midwest + West/Southwest, at 42% each. There was a huge California contingent at Orientation. I thought that was great.</p>
