My D is interested in creative writing and English. We went for a visit and found the class schedule rather odd. Pitzer and other non-Pomona Claremonts only were offering about 10 english classes with pretty generic titles, e.g. advanced poetry. By contrast, Pomona offered about 30 classes with lots of interesting content.

Is this by design? Do English majors at Pitzer take lots of classes at Pomona? Is English a multi-school major?
