[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oberlin produced 4 Nobel prize winners. I believe 3 were in sciences and the 2021 one in economics. The first was by Robert Millikan. He was the first president of Caltech. Oberlin is hard to beat. [/quote] Some little known Oberlin STEM history: The origin of Oberlin's big endowment was a gift from Charles Martin in the 1800s. While a student at Oberlin, he researched better ways to extract aluminum from ore. His process worked and it powered the growth of ALCOA. Martin gave generously to Oberlin, with much of the current endowment attributable to his gift. [/quote]
