  Harvey Mudd College - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Harvey Mudd College is a highly selective, private college of science, engineering, and mathematics, located in Claremont, California.
Harvey Mudd College has a unique mission which, to paraphrase, is: to educate scientists, engineers, and mathematicians well-versed in the social sciences and humanities so that they better understand the impact of their work on society.
Harvey Mudd College is contiguous to the other Claremont Colleges, and students at these colleges may take classes at any of them, though classes in the student's major are normally taken at their own college.

 Diversity at Harvey Mudd
In their view, a support model that fails to challenge the prevailing attitudes, values, and pedagogies of the Mudd community unjustly and unwisely places all the burden for change and adaptation on underrepresented students themselves.
Such a choice not only alienates the student from either the Mudd community or their self-identification (and frequently both) but also creates a sense of confusion and subordination contrary to the individual and social empowerment a college education should cultivate.
