Social life at the Claremont Colleges?

<p>This question is all inclusive: parties/ extra curriculars/ sports/ dorm life</p>

<p>my sister went to Scripps and this is what I've gathered from her experiences-</p>

<p>the dorm life is a really big part of the social life because most kids live on campus all 4 years at each of the 5 claremont colleges. And the dorms are generally pretty nice, except for maybe Pitzer's, which I've heard are still alright.</p>

<p>there's only one little tiny frat (at Pomona), but otherwise the parties are just gatherings in someone's room, and people from different colleges come to parties on each campus.</p>

<p>Harvey Mudd throws some of the best parties, and the kids there are generally pretty cool and not all anti-social like you'd think people at a science/math school would be. </p>

<p>The claremont colleges have division 3 sports, I'm not sure how enthusiastic the students generally are about them. The 2 teams are the Pomona-Pitzer Sagehens and the Scripps-Mudd-Claremont Mckenna "I forget their mascot name"s. Claremont Mckenna is supposed to have the most athletic student body of all the 5 Cs (5 claremont colleges).</p>

<p>Parties happen, and they seem to be pretty laid back.</p>

<p>from all of the 5 Cs total there's a balance of girls and guys, so dating probably wouldn't be too big of a problem. </p>

<p>there seemed to be a good variety of ECs, but I can't really think of them. A lot of international or community service kind of things. </p>

<p>and that's all I can think of for now!</p>
