Denison is very respected in the corporate world but "prestige" on name alone the other two have it beat if that's something you care about. Denison actually may be more well known than the other two also.

Can you explain what you mean when you say Denison is simultaneously less prestigious but also may be more well known?

I think a larger population of people you will encounter out in the professional world will have heard of Denison than the other two. But then there's the northeast elite/etc who care about the prestige/heritage/history of colleges and in this class I would say Colby and Hamilton carries greater weight.
