I was listening to Los Angeles sports radio yesterday. One of the radio personality, Matt Smith, mentioned that he was in Claremont and at Pomona college for his daughter’s high school Lacrosse (or soccer) tournament this past weekend. He said it was his first time at the Claremont colleges and was blown away at how gorgeous it looks. He gave Pomona some free publicity and told the radio audience that PMC was the #1 Liberal Arts school in the country. He admittedly acknowledged that he did not know Pomona is that highly regarded and that it was a beautiful campus. I know it’s superficial of me to think this but I do hope the words gets out more. A lot of the Pomona kids work super hard to get into this school and it would be nice for them to get some recognition by the general public. I have a niece at Stanford and another one that graduated from Dartmouth and they both had Pomona as their top choice out of high school .
