<p>This is why I would be thrilled to go to Stanford; debate, location, and the majors I want (not as many school's as I would like have Aeronautical Engineering). I would be sooo happy, it's a dream.</p>
<p>Hey I debate too!</p>
<p>But I hear East coast schools are better, debate team-wise.</p>
<p>-not having my parents around
-meeting new people
-networking
-parties
-being academically challenged
-exploring interesting courses
-taking advantage of living in a city
-school spirit</p>
<p>Texas, California, midwest, and a lot of the east and the northeast are really good. But we have nationally competitive teams in Missouri, Texas, and a couple in my state. The 'best' coast really just has more good teams, not necessarily better IMHO.</p>
