[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Academics in STEM will know Harvey Mudd well. It sounds like some PPs are reigniting the debate DCUM so often seems to fall into re. name recognition among lay people and other factors pretty distant from the academic environment.

That said, I agree there are pros and cons to both. You've made a good list, OP. What is your DC thinking?[/quote]

W[b]e can finance Columbia. Daughter definitely prefers the vibe at Mudd, but is afraid about what could happen if she decides she doesn't want to do STEM[/b]. All her friends/family are puzzling over Mudd as well, so while she knows Mudd has good tech outcomes, what happens if she didn't want to do that?

Mudd seems like a riskier option, basically. [/quote]

Well that's easy - Pomona, Scripps, Pitzer, Claremont.   Take classes or enroll there.  One of my friend's DDs who could not get into Clarement enrolled at Scripps at takes classes on the other campuses.[/quote]

Yo[b]u can cross register within the 5c. But OP's concern is what happens if the student doesn't want a STEM major?  You still need a major at Harvey?[/quote][/b]

[b]why you guys can't google is beyond me.[/b]  YES - big political science, etc, opportunities and major at Mudd AND at the other colleges.  Or she can just apply to one of the others for a transfer to that college if she chooses.  https://www.hmc.edu/hsa/[/quote]

Because it's not my kid, and I don't care enough to do more than fire off a quick question on DCUM.  [/quote]
