Case Western has much more modern architecture blended with classical, and has very top medical research with Cleveland Clinic available to undergrads. It has similar big city amenities close by, top art museum and Cleveland Orchestra is only beat by Chicago Symphony for excellence. Many Case Western professors got their education at U of Chicago. Cleveland is up and coming, great for sports, art, music, dancing, downtown is smaller, and its more east coast feel than midwestern, but friendly and smaller than Chicago.
