Sometimes smaller schools offer a better learning environment for CS. They have smaller class sizes, which means better relationships with professors. They sometimes will be more hands on and up to date, as they are not bogged down by professors entrenched in academia for decades. These at least were my experiences having gone to a small school, teaching at a medium school, and comparing to experiences of friends at large schools. Edit: I should mention all were 4 year degrees in my experience. Although, comparing my local community college's course curriculum to the large state schools, it seems more focused on web development and has less computer science fluff. So it may be better career/experience wise but lacking in more theoretical topics.
