Among the LACs, I can tell you that Bowdoin is highly focused on, and has been successful at, carving a path to Silicon Valley companies for its graduates.

Career Services organizes a “West Trek” to top Silicon Valley employers. The college’s Trustees spend a lot of time engaging with tech execs. Top leadership at Netflix (CEO and founder is a Bowdoin alum), Apple and others have very close ties to Bowdoin and have donated millions to the school. (See below)
