If they were just slightly more different from each other, this would be a whole lot easier.
My advice is to pick a town that you can see yourself having a good time in, as well as a school that you like.
Well, what I'd really like is a small town, but small towns and largeish research universities are fairly incompatible things. So I'm aiming for "not giant cities," which is working okay, I guess, but still leaves lots of options.
Grad school is lonely enough without worrying about living in a dead-end city, right?
Well, I'm not having much luck outside of grad school in a city that's not really dead-end, so I'm actually hoping for campus activities and classes to give me a social life again. *g*
Bowling was great. We should do it again if we're ever in the same town at the same time again. ;)
