Yeah, the OP says that s/he doesn’t want small LACs.
Some matches/reaches in colder places, with classics majors, and without big sports traditions are Brandeis, Tufts, University of Pittsburgh (debatable about the party culture, though), Fordham, Loyola Chicago, Case Western, Boston U, SUNY Binghamton, and Hofstra.
Some other places that are colder and have classics majors, but do have big sports and/or party reputations are Villanova, Minnesota, Purdue, Syracuse, and UConn.
