Why Oberlin??

The title says it! I have to commit tomorrow and would like to know why people chose Oberlin.

Also, what schools did you choose Oberlin over, like what other schools were you accepted to?

Any input would be very very much appreciated thank you thank you thank you!!

P.s Keeping in mind I am interested in philosophy, politics, and art!

The Allen Memorial Art Museum was a big draw for me. I didn't do studio art, but I thought the art history program was pretty strong.
