I always wondered why so many of the movers and shakers in the world graduated from Connecticut College.


If you weren't so ignorant, you'd know that CC used to be a women's college. How many of the world's movers and shakers (except HRC) graduated from women's colleges? Connecticut College was never a top tier school, but now it's very hard to get into, closing in on some of the very best SLACS. I know some very smart people who graduated form CC, but they are still young. It takes a while to shake the world.


Relax. No one cares about small liberal arts colleges in general.


You think people only care about Division ! schools or something. I think big state schools suck.

Wow -- I feel sorry for your kids . . . and for you.


Can't comment on the "movers and the shakers" bit...but this certainly seems like a great idea.........hard to criticize the school for taking a bold move like this...
