[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Reflection towards the move of LAC to Science and Math Arts Colleges. These lacs should be embarrassed that their top majors are math, Econ, and Chemistry.[/quote] That's nothing new. From a 1964 Amherst College admissions brochure: "Since we seek diversification in terms of interest and achievements, candidates whose greatest strength is in mathematics or science (including medicine) face a more competitive admission situation than students in the non-sciences. About 70 per cent of our applicants seem to be tentatively headed for math-science majors, but we try to give about half the places in the class to men aiming for math-science areas and half to all other areas."[/quote]
