% STEM majors averaged across Ivy League: 35.1%

% STEM majors averaged across Williams, Amherst, Pomona, Swarthmore, Wellesley, Bowdoin, Carleton, and Grinnell: 38.3% [/quote]
DP. But STEM majors at SLACs are mickey mouse stuff comparing to ivy schools. I think that's what PP was saying.[/quote]

Someone forgot to tell the grad schools that.

Science and Eng PhD rate for Ivies: 8%
Science and Eng PhD rate for above 8 LACs: 10.9% [/quote]
Why is PhD rate important? Is it supposed to be something prestigious? (it's not!) Sounds like some random thinking to me.[/quote]

Really important to keep those goal posts moving, so when someone posts actual data  showing LACs performance in the sciences you can make a wild claim like a BA is a terminal degree actually or nobody ever goes to school again once they have that Stanford BA in CS.

Who do you think is TEACHING these classes, some kids with a BA in Chemistry from Yale?
