As far as college visits go, I visited a lot of colleges when I was a HS senior and looking back on it all you see is a bunch of buildings, which tells you nothing about what being a student there is really like and if the college is a good fit for you as an individual.
Best of luck to you what ever you decide.

Michigan is fabulous, but if he want he wants is a liberal arts education, that's what Kalamazoo does. It may be closer to what he wants in a learning community, and Kalamazoo does very well with grad school acceptances, if that is what he wants.
