Only Pitzer. I have a sense that it is changing. It used to be “pooh man’s Claremont”, easier to get in, smaller endowment, unsightly dorms, easy curriculum, slacker students, etc, etc. But they seem to be boosting their academic offerings, and, if I remember correctly, last year they won more Fulbrights than Pomona, Scripps, CMC, and Harvey Mudd combined, and 21 over the past three years. Has (or at least used to have) an extraordinary anthropology department, and, combined with all the external studies, folks can find themselves led in all sorts of directions.
