[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Williams for a rural experience
Amherst for a college town experience
Swarthmore for a suburban experience
Pomona for a west coast experience
Barnard/Reed for the urban experience

You aren't better than others for choosing one over the other.[/quote]

West coaster checking in! I'd hardly call Pomona or any of the 5Cs providing a true "west coast" experience. The 5Cs are firmly in what we call the "Inland empire". Nowhere near the coast or a city. Please don't think of it as being even within 30 minutes from a beach or major city. You need to fly into Ontario airport not LAX and it's easily 1-2 hrs (depending on how bad the traffic is) away from anything fun in LA. You're essentially just in an affluent suburb in the inland empire with a new-ish town area that's more interesting to professors and the parents of 5C students than teens or adults in their early 20s. [b]There's no club, bar or music scene.[/b] The most laudable things about Claremont town is its farmer's market. It is very dull which is why the campus becomes a bubble for those students.[/quote]
