<p>Just curious, how do students at CMC (in general) dress? I heard that at some of the LACs on the east coast, students won't even wear something as 'scrubby' as jeans to class (eek!). Anyone know if CMC's different?</p>
<p>When I visited, everything was pretty casual. There were some girls who were wearing sweatshirts, t-shirts, jeans, flip flops etc. and some others who were a little more dressed up. Of course I didn't stay long enough to go to a class, but I don't think CMC is anything like that.</p>
<p>I second that. It was pretty casual when I went there, but slightly preppier than Pomona, Scripps, and Pitzer, which were just more down to earth. Still, at CMC, most people were wearing jeans, maybe a nice shirt, and flip flops.</p>
<p>yeah CMC definitely reflects the California laid back attitude---there did seem to be some preppiness, but other than that nobody spends that much time on their appearance as people on the east coast do just for class.</p>
<p>class meaning "going to the classroom" LoL not status.</p>
<p>When I visited, the attire seemed even more laid back than earlier said. I saw several students in pajamas and an old tee-shirt. granted, i went in the summer and there wasn't many people around. Good luck to everybody</p>
<p>If you want to experience contrast in dress, do as we did and drive straight form Pepperdine (stilettos paired with a shocking pink cashmere (?) track suit) to Claremont McKenna. The dress at the latter mirrors that at a top rated large suburban Bay Area high school.</p>
<p>When I visited, no one was sober.</p>
