re: Would you rather go to a state school or a small private school?

I went to a very small school, and it was a good fit for me academically and socially. I could never have gone to an LSU sized school. Sometimes I wish I had gone somewhere moderately sized, like a TCU.

Do people really pick a college to go to because of the football team? Lol

I mean it wasn't THE reason, but I'm sure the fact that I had been a Georgia fan since I could talk swayed me there a little bit. But money, party scene, academics I'd say were bigger concerns.

It's an old one

Depends on the school. I'd go to Rice over LSU, but I'd go to Texas or UGA over Rice.

Big public schools are the way to go, IMO, most of the time. Often cheaper, lots to do, good networks, good academics, often more practical for career moves, etc.

In the Northeast it is different, where everyone with any money goes to small liberal arts schools rather than the shitty public schools.

Rice is on the top of list of happiest student and quality of life , many state schools have suicides
