Definitely not true. Why, because WASP is nothing special and CMC is already there. There are about a dozen top SLACs with virtually identical student profiles and none of them are better than any of the others. They all have their niches and fit and those who believe that a certain 4 are somehow better than the others are just idiots.

CMC is more pre-professional than some others so keep that in mind. C5 consortium provide alot of opportunities.

Keep saying this and maybe you will believe it. But students and their applications vote with their feet. Learn from them.


Colby and Northeastern thank you for that wonderful insight......dim, one dimensional little fool you are. ~Yoda

Just so you know, it’s called 5Cs. I don’t think there is a C5 consortium.

Amazing school in an amazing setting. Nothing bad to say about ANY of the Claremont colleges.

Truth!

I do think the culture is changing, but it's slow. DD hated the vibe, but did really like Pomona.

One of the best things about it is the lack of dim little tools such as yourself.

Recently rising college and DD thinks it would be a good opportunity as a literature/philosophy double major. There’s been great buzz on the college across other forum posts, so it would be nice to get some centralized opinion on the college and the culture. Is it still dude bro or is that reducing as the school gets more popular?
