Graduates from a tiny liberal-arts school in California outern Harvard and Stanford graduates
Graduates from science, mathematics, and engineering powerhouse Harvey Mudd College outern colleagues from Harvard and Stanford.

‘Culturally insensitive’ food served at Pembroke College
Students at Pembroke College complained about dinner menu because of ”cultural misrepresentation” of meals that were wrongly attributed to different regions and countries. Some of the meals included Chinese chicken, Indian fish pie, oriental beef stew, Jamaican stew and African stew with sweet potato. Students claim these combinations do not exist in their native countries. On the contrary side, others said they were thankful to the Pembroke staff for at least trying.
