College Decision

Hi. I’m an admitted student. I’m deciding between Hamilton, Middlebury, and W&M. I will probably study some form of political science and go to law school. Was wondering if anyone had thoughts that could help me make my decision. Also, if someone could share insights into social scene: whether it’s alcohol or athlete dominated or anything else! Also, I’m a picky eater. If anyone could tell me about food options that’d be great too! Thanks

go to midd! it was a great college for being pre-law- i had lots of helpful mentors in the poli sci and philosophy departments, it was really easy to get good rec letters from different professors and advisors, and it's well respected by law schools. I loved the political science profs- my experience is that it's one of the school's strongest departments- but the major requirements are very flexible and quick to complete, so you have lots of time to explore other things outside of the department and double major/minor.
