[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP. The math department at UMW seems oddly strong for a small college with a high admissions rate, especially in cryptography. Can anyone speak to that?[/quote] It's the law of small numbers at play. At a larger university, a similarly sized cryptography department wouldn't be as much of a standout. UMW seems like a great option for students interested in cryptography, as these professors won't have the demands of grad students and the rush to make tenure, and UMW's understated reputation makes it unlikely that a student interested in cryptography (or any math research) will struggle with competition for research opportunities.[/quote]
