[4 ] WE MYTHOLOGIZE OUR OWN CURRICULUM. We have a

core curriculum that provides, shall we say, an intensive introduction to the major fields of study. Both chal- lenging and invigorating, it’ll make you a strong, well-rounded student.

[5 ] WE DIG LIFE. We’re a liberal arts college interested in the human

experience. At least thirty percent of your coursework will be in the humanities, social sciences and the arts. You’ll be an enlightened human being—and an exceptional scientist. One follows naturally from the other.

[6 ] WE’RE NOT ALONE. We’re a member of The Claremont Colleges,

one of the nation’s oldest college consortia. You’ll have access to over 2,500 courses, over 300 clubs and organizations, two million volumes in the Colleges’ library, and dozens of majors.

[7 ] WE’RE SMART. And modest. By any numerical standard, we rock.

You’ll be surrounded by people who represent the future of your field.

[8 ] WE’RE A COMMUNITY. We live by an honor code, we help each

other, we throw legendary parties, we go trayless in the dining hall and monitor our dorms’ energy usage, we play complicated and reversible pranks. Students collaborate, not compete. You’ll belong here.

[9 ] WE’RE GEEKS. We’re geeks—if by “geek” you mean

“a multidimensional, polyvalent, seriously interesting person who happens to really, really love math, science, engineering, humanities, social sciences, or the arts.” We have lives and interests and tastes and something approaching style. Some of us are actually cool!

[10 ] WE SUCCEED BEYOND MUDD. Our graduates have seri-

ous options. When you graduate, you’ll be looking at jobs with salaries averaging $65,000-$70,000 or at prestigious Ph.D. programs with full fellowships.
