Tufts, Cornell or UVA?

<p>Please help! D wants to study IR/Government at one of these (communications and gov at Cornell) and she's trying to choose. We've visited all and she knows all about the size and weather, but wants to know about the programs, prof and student body. Also, how is each school for music, as she wants to continue to play violin and sing for extracurricular fun?</p>

<p>C'mon people--I know you have an opinion! Any insights will be appreciated.</p>
