If college students are asked about debt, most will think of their own impending payments of student loans. The average amount of student debt nationwide has skyrocketed over the past 20 years and now exceeds $26,000 per undergraduate student. Student debt is an increasing threat to the financial security of an entire generation and clearly must be addressed in the coming years. However, debt on a different scale has been growing in Washington, D.C. for years. Recent changes

With only 100 days left until graduation, the senior class spent last Thursday celebrating their time at CMC.

Last semester, 80 CMCers got the chance to experience a change of scenery from the typical Bauer and Kravis classroom setting. Take a look at their adventures this past fall from all over the globe. They might just spark your interest to go abroad! Photo by Rebecca Shane '19 - Geneva, Switzerland "Studying abroad in Geneva was an incredible experience for me!

When the reading assignments pile up, or when Roberts Pavilion seems like too much of a trek, what can you possibly do to make sure that those numbers on the scale don’t skyrocket? As with most things, maintaining personal health depends on sustaining a balanced lifestyle, rather than depending on one grand workout. Here are five simple tips to help you avoid gaining the "Freshman 15" (or the Sophomore 16): 1. Don’t go for seconds (or thirds). Buffets create a sense of illusi

Over the weekend, hundreds of thousands of people turned out for the Women's March in Los Angeles. Among the crowds this past weekend were CMC students becoming a part of the uplifting and empowering atmosphere surrounding the day. Take a look at some pictures shot by CMC and Scripps students this past Saturday to learn more about their experiences at the Women's March. Photos by Shreya Bhatnagar '20 "This was my first Women's March and the only word to describe it was 'invig

Lack of diversity negatively impacts everyone, not just underrepresented communities. Exposing people to multiple perspectives, backgrounds, and narratives is the centerpiece of higher education, yet there is only one Black professor at CMC. Taken directly from the Diversity and Inclusion page of CMC’s website, the faculty and Board of Trustees promised in 2007: The value that we place on diversity at Claremont McKenna College - in our student body, in our faculty and staff,

As a student at CMC, I often forget about the importance of art. Whenever I say that I’ve never taken an Econ class before (and have no burning desire to do so) I elicit an array of colorful, shocked responses. Yet, I have failed to encounter a similar type of outrage at CMC’s lack of emphasis surrounding theater, music, and applied art. To even access art-centric clubs and events, I frequently have to trek to Pomona and Scripps, often times, finding myself to be the only CMC

At this week’s Senate meeting, ASCMC senators considered a transparency constitutional amendment and discussed a proposal to build a hammock lounge in Mid Quad.

He focused on the most significant update: the provision that “at the discretion of the president pro tempore, electronic communications pertaining to votes shal

So, you know the CARE Center, right? You probably know that it is located on the second floor of Heggblade, above the Dean of Students Office. You might know that part of its mission is "to build capacity in communicating across difference with respect and civility." But here's something you probably don't know about the CARE Center: it exists because of the activism of a small group of students of color, which began in February 2015. These students, who formed a group called
