<p>Just a side note...</p>
<p>Pomona and Pitzer are in Claremont, CA. Claremont is far from rough, but there isn't much for a college student to do; I felt at home. But if you want to get out of California then they probably won't be at the top of your list. I live in Oregon and you should consider Reed + Lewis and Clark, both are awesome and "crunchy."</p>
