[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you were a good computer scientist and lived in silicon valley, why in the world would you teach for $150k a year at Pomona when you could pull $500k (or more, if youre really good or are part of a startup) in private industry. This is the issue. [/quote] Williams has 13 tenure track faculty members. Swarthmore has 11. The fact that Pomona only has 6 is a sign of poorly managed administration that cannot seem to get their priorities together. I've heard horror stories about other aspects regarding them as well. Avoid the headache and don't bother applying here. Most of the other T10 LACs are much better run. [/quote] Agree. They don’t seem to want to fix this. Engineering, CS professors can make a ton consulting. Even in the short term, Pomona could get really great adjunct faculty if they wanted. [/quote]
