U of Rochester or Macalester College?!

<p>heyy everyone, </p>

<p>i thought i'd love Macalester College, but when i visited i guess i was disappointed by the various uhm..."liberal" students i met. and in addition to everything my parents think it's a better school for me. but when i visited UR i really liked the people i met and the campus itself seemed college-like and welcoming...one downside to the college is however the fact that it's in rochester (suburban). i'm being opened minded about my major, but currently i'm registered under a chemistry major at both schools. Help?</p>

<p>The University of Rochester has an excellent chemistry program. U of R has a lot of preprofessional students so its a bit more on the serious side. Rochester has a lot of cultural and recreational opportunities. I think it is a great city...just the right size to be liveable and still have good restaurants, entertainment, theater, music, films, and so on. </p>

<p>What is it that you are looking for from the campus location/city?
What do you enjoy doing in your free time?</p>

<p>Rochester is highly diverse both racially and politically. The student body as a whole is moderate. Chemistry is great at Rochester and you will probably get a more well rounded college experience there.</p>
