<p>How often is the consortium used by HMC kids? Do they often take classes at other colleges or is it just a nice accessory that is strongly advertised?</p>
<p>It’s definitely not an accessory, not at all. I am taking two Pitzer classes right now (and three Mudd technical classes)! Lots of people can chime in on this so I’ll stop here.</p>
<p>Most people take at least 6 off-campus humanities courses, since half of the 12 required must be taken at Mudd and the others can be taken anywhere. In my 4 years I’ve taken 5 Pomona classes, 3 CMC classes, 1 Pitzer class, and 1 Scripps class. I also use the other dining halls all the time.</p>
<p>It’s a good question. See this related thread with Consortium feedback. </p>
