I don’t think that’s the issue. My numbers are from IPEDS, which is the only search engine I’ve found that lets you generate a customized list of colleges based on the number of students majoring in a subject.</p>
<p>The problem with IPEDS is that it counts only primary majors. For a subject like French, which is often tacked on as a secondary major, that may conceal a lot of students, as apparently it did at Amherst.</p>
