Not as odd as you might think. It kind of goes with what I was saying that, when deciding among the dozens and dozens of good quality schools there are in the USA, it is really mostly the non-academic factors that prevail. Weather, size of school, and sure, how aesthetically pleasing the school is to you. After all, it is a place you will be living for 4 years, generally speaking. These factors should be taken into account, because the happier you are with your overall situation the better you are likely to do, not to mention the better memories you will have of your college experience.</p>
