@summer1997, you won’t find that any cultural group, or major, as the dominant voice on campus. My D is about to graduate and says she doesn’t know any theater majors as her social circles are mostly science majors. The director of admissions once proudly told me that the student body is about 30% Protestant heritage, 30% Catholic heritage, 30% Jewish heritage and a mix of other groups fill in after that. Very few people wear their religion ‘on their sleeve’ regardless of their affiliation.

Overall, Muhlenberg has a very nice mix of courteous and conscientious students of many backgrounds. Demographically, the school is a little lacking in racial diversity but I wouldn’t worry about the theater majors or any faith group dominating the scene.
