<p>I just heard that Denver was a cool school because I’m looking for a smaller private school feel, with a nice campus.</p>
<p>Denver also seems like a much cooler city than alot of college towns…</p>

<p>While I’d love to say that BC is incredibly overrated, and only where it’s at because of the sports teams, it’s still a fantastic school academically, and lightyears ahead of DU. What happened with your parents 30 years ago is a pointless anecdote, which adds nothing to the conversation. My mother went to Columbia 30 years ago, and while it was still a great school academically, it was significantly easier to get into than it is now. Does that make it a bad school? That’s what you seem to be insinuating…</p>
<p>If Denver isn’t the greatest school, then does anyone have some suggestions for schools around the same size with more renown academics, a good greek system, and a cool town that isn’t impossible to get into?</p>
