It's a small school. Like any LAC, I would not expect to be able to identify famous alumni off the top of my head.

Why would it matter?

I said famous, not moderately impressive.

It’s an underwhelming list esp last 50 years versus many peers.

Oh yeah? How, exactly? Less so than peers like Amherst, Williams, Bowdoin? Sure. Less so than Conn, Bates, Davidson. MacAlester, Mudd, etc? Nope.

I have another game:

Name 3 people rejected by Colby:

1. OP (or children)
2. Posters in the (coincidental?) other colby thread
3. ??

Three famous Wesleyan University alumn:

Bill Belechick
Lin-Manuel Miranda
Joss Whedon

I guess my kid should have applied there. His chances of becoming famous are gone.

I went to a no-name college. I just glanced at its list of notable alumni for fun. Surprisingly, it includes a first lady and the most well-known current NCAA women’s basketball coach (I do not follow basketball at all and I recognized this person’s name instantly, so I’d so they’re the most well-known).

A lot of Bushes went to Colby. A friend of mine was there with Billy Bush.

No, not a lot. Just Billy. The rest went to the family school - Yale. I know one of the second cousins, dumbest person I ever met. The name got her into Yale.
