Little Ivies

I have already discussed the ivy league schools  i along with many national research universities ndividually.
 This is a good moment to look at the elite group of liberal arts colleges  known as the little ivies.

 Like the ivy league the little ivies are predominantly new England schools.
 The folowing can be thought of as little ivies

  •  Williams 
  • Amherst
  •  Swarthmore
  • Bates
  •  Bowdoin
  • Middlebury
  •  Bowdoin
  • Connecticut College
  • Vassar
  • Wesleyan
  Williams, Amherst  and   Swarthmore are consistently the top ranked liberal arts colleges. and are referred to as the "little three"

  Other excellent   liberal arts schools can be found in other states but are called little ivies. These include Pomona, Oberlin, Davidson, Grinnell,Macalaster amongst others.

 I will look at several of these individually.
