    Looks like both North Dakota's major research universities are doing some things right. Congrats to both universities.

    That's a pretty good list I think. Ithica, NY is pretty sweet. So is Charlottesville, VA.

    We all live in stories... It seems to me that a definition of any living vibrant society is that you constantly question those stories... The argument itself is freedom. It's not that you come to a conclusion about it. Through that argument you change your mind sometimes... That's how societies grow. When you can't retell for yourself the stories of your life then you live in a prison... Somebody else controls the story. - S. Rushdie

    Those rents are ridiculous. My wife got into the PhD program at Penn State but we couldn't afford to live there on a Grad Student's stipend. Those smaller college towns are all made of student houses that are designed to be divided up by 4 or 5 people. A family that doesn't have roommates can't really afford it.
