A+! I'm a Harvard professor, and have taught students at Cambridge, Cornell, Columbia, London, Paris, Wesleyan, Swarthmore, and Yale. Oberlin is a jewel in the crown of American intellectual life. Nowhere does one find a better equipped environment, from libraries, to musea, to music, for stimulation of the life of the mind, and the students are genuine, extremely capable, inquisitive, adventurous. An intellectual's heaven. The best place in the country."

<p>A friend of mine taught for two years at Oberlin right out of grad school. Then she moved to Princeton. She thought the students at Oberlin were more interesting and fun to teach.</p>
