before you put a slamdunk on how bad pitzer is to pomona, just realize that regardless of where you get your degree, it is important for you to represent the school instead of the school representing you. Your achievements in college is what will take you farther; you just cant count on the brand name only.
What is funny is that many of us at pitzer had to make decision between berk,ucla, ucsd and so on. It really was a decision based on LAC vs BIG university. Now i dont doubt that pomona kids may be “more academically driven”- i wont discount that, but like everyone on this board is saying, each of the 5c draws in a different type of student. So, be sure to check out if your personality fits well with that type of school <– i believe i made a mistake on the school i selected, but i will see what happens.
