Having several smaller acts doesn't generate the same campus-wide excitement that one big concert does. Lesser known artists tend to fly under the radar. I know some people who had no idea that Santigold or RJD2 played a show at Middlebury. Big name artists energize the student body and give everyone a spring event to look forward to.

I think the idea of putting on smaller shows is much more beneficial to the College community. Trying to homogenize the tastes of 2,400 people with different interests and different backgrounds is impossible. However, bringing multiple smaller acts is not only a way to please a larger swath of the student community but also to introduce new bands to students that would not have otherwise heard of them.
