@gardenstategal Just want to clarify – Denison has really moved past its preppy history – recent article about how it, Williams and Grinnell successfully foster economic diversity on campus, plus that NY Times piece a while ago about economic demographics at various schools put Denison families at much more blended, and modest, economically, than both Kenyon and Oberlin.
Schools like Trinity CT, W&L, Sewanee would fit the OP’s bill
