<p>I like the Exeter vs. Lawrenceville thread.</p>
<p>St. George's vs. Middlesex</p>
<p>Choate vs. Taft</p>
<p>Deerfield vs. Hotchkiss</p>
<p>Avon Old Farms vs. Salisbury vs. Trinity-Pawling</p>
<p>Hill vs. Lawrenceville</p>
<p>Blair vs. Peddie</p>
<p>St. Paul's vs. Groton</p>
<p>Loomis vs. Kent</p>
<p>Andover vs. Exeter</p>
<p>LET'S GET READY TO RUUUUUUMBLE!!!!!!!!!</p>
<p>What ?</p>
<p>He's on second base.</p>
<p>Dayuummmn...Andover better bring their best. Exeter's ready to kick some smurf-ass.</p>
<p>What's on second? ;)</p>
<p>I don't know.</p>
<p>No, he's on third!</p>
<p>Good for you -- I knew that!</p>
<p>Excellence defined... Is there a winner, 2nd place, last place? Or is it up to you?</p>
<p>It's always up to me. I'm a kind of American royalty.</p>
<p>hotchkiss vs. deerfield</p>
<p>hotchkiss is definitely awesomer than deerfield.</p>
<p>"definitely awesomer" is not gonna make it.</p>
<p>Expand your answer for credit.</p>
<p>but then again it depends on what your looking for. hotchkiss-
located on a lake
not as far north as deerfield but still in new england
more students boarding
more flexible curriculum</p>
<p>Hotchkiss is on a lake and doesn't offer crew. Deerfield older and more prestigious.</p>
<p>Deerfield vs. Hotchkiss</p>
<p>hotchkiss
more endowment
more endowment per person
one building policy</p>
<p>The endowment difference is low enough to be a wash.
What's a "one building policy"?</p>
<p>um....382.1M vs 334M..that's a good 20% difference right there... and remember hotchkiss was established almost a whole 100 years later than deerfield, and managed to have more endowment...</p>
<p>hotchkiss ,600 arces
deerfield 280arces</p>
<p>It's not 20% and those #'s are a wash -- believe me. </p>
<p>The modern Deerfield begins with Boyden's Headermastership in 1901.</p>
<p>Nobody really cares about campus size.</p>
<p>Yeah...because if size matters, St. Paul's kicks their butt @ 2,000 acres. :)
Take that, Groton!</p>
<p>Excellent -- bring it!</p>
