Claremont is a great college town.  Of the 5 colleges, CMC does lean more conservative traditionally (lots of Econ, poly sci, philosophy majors).  I went to Scripps and was there for reunion recently.  CMC kids were partying just like they did 30 years ago. It’s a work hard/play hard place.  Serious students. [b] A little more fun than HMC or Pomona. [/b] Great school.[/quote]

I can tell you from personal experience that HMC is [i]not fun at all[/i]. CMC is not a little more fun that HMC, it is a lot more fun.[/quote]
Harvey Mudd is the current party school of the Claremont Colleges and, while engineering coursework isn’t thrilling, they have a really fun dorm culture and lifestyle in general. Pomona has become the boring one.[/quote]

Unless they watered down the courses A LOT, this cannot be true.[/quote]
No they're still just as hard, and mudders are invisible during the week, but they drink habitually and its not uncommon to see them with borgs, doing cage fights, and blasting music at night. Pomona clamped down hard on party life and has become a dry place in general. CMC has the mediocre parties when Mudd isn't throwing. Mudd is hard, but the kids have time at 11pm on a saturday. It isn't purgatory.[/quote]
