<p>applejack, I don’t disagree with the description! Ithaca is a gorgeous city. But to characterize this winter sky as the same as any Northeast city is highly misleading- I’m originally from the northern suburbs of NY and I can assure you, this was a much bleaker winter than any I remember. Of course, 1L can do that to you too…</p>

<p>My point is, you should visit! All three campuses/towns have their plusses and minuses. I personally like the bar scene here in Ithaca better than in Evanston, for instance.</p>

<p>Chicago is so much better than Boston. I don’t know why students love it here to be honest haha. Cambridge is better than Evanston though but the gap is narrowing. I think of Evanston as Davis Square (which I really like) near Tufts.</p>

<p>And at this level, personal aesthetic taste is a perfectly valid and good reason for choosing one campus over the others.</p>
