The Great Barrington, Mass.-based American Institute for Economic Research has named the Bridgeport-Norwalk-Stamford corridor as the eighth-best “small city” for college students. Boulder, Colo., home to, among other schools, the University of Colorado, was first. The Institute compiled data from metropolitan areas across the country, incorporating metrics on student life, culture, economic health and opportunity. The organization’s philosophy is that “the people students meet, the places they go and the jobs they may hold are essential supplements to formal education.” Sacred Heart University in Fairfield announced the news. Its main Fairfield campus is in the heart of the designated No. 8 “small city” region and it maintains a downtown Stamford campus and satellites in Luxembourg and Ireland. Source: Westfair Online
