Internets and College Search

So, although I haven't had internet (for the last... say... nine months?) on any stable basis, for the last few days I've been waking up especially early to go to a place that does! This means I've been catching up on comics, doing research, and looking at colleges.

College is frightening. That's the truth. I'm planning the trips, tours, and whatnot, while my parents ask me lots of questions. Suggestions? Sometimes. Advice? Only in strange idioms. Questions and doubts about my choices? Hellofalot.

Here are the top 2 I am currently looking into. Shoot me an email to tell me what you think!

Fordham: Located in NYC with a liberal-quasi-religious basis. The school was formed by Jesuit priests who did not believe in grades, but managed to survive despite its liberal ideas by classes on rational thought and realistic activism. They don't have an architecture major, something I am considering going into, but I can always go to grad school for that.

Northeastern: A polar opposite of Fordham, Northeastern is what my maternal family calls a "big block school." They function on large class sizes with rudimentary information, then letting students pursue their own goals. Basically, instead of coddling kids to reach their creative limits IN class, they limit the small-class feeling to inspire students to follow tangents outside. I kind of like that method of learning, but if they do it wrong, it's gonna be hell. Another BIG plus is their huge coop program. I could be working in a field before I leave.

These two choices aren't the only I've looked into, and obviously I have a bit more to do, but I think I'm doing pretty well, dangnamit!
