[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]If you are a serious contender academically for Pomona, I don't see how you would want to settle for Pitzer. I [/b]don't think the academics/student body is well regarded and i think of the student body as more activist vs intellectual (pomona). Maybe look at cmc if kid is pre professional type. [/quote] This. They are worlds apart. Pomona is ranked 5 for national liberal arts colleges; Pitzer is 36 . It's not as well-regarded. I would do CMC, which is ranked 8, and cross-register for STEM. Because it's unlikely the STEM major will hold. New college students change majors 80 percent of the time - and usually twice. My own kid entered as an aerospace engineer at UVA and switched to the humanities second year. google it.[/quote] Thanks for another example of slavish adherence to dubious rankings.[/quote]
