<p>“Case Western, Carnegie Mellon, Lafayette, Lehigh, Villanova. Not top 50 I don’t think but have good engineering and math programs.”</p>
<p>all but villanova rank above 50 in the USNWR national universities list (Lafayette I think they rank with the LAC’s, its also right up there and has strong engineering)</p>
<p>U Rochester is strong in some areas of engineering, esp EE, has strong music and liberal arts, and has many other interesting things (5th year free to top students). And its on your way from Boston to Cleveland, and could be combined with a visit to RIT.</p>
