Most Diverse
PMC was rated the nation's most racially diverse liberal arts college by U.S. News and World Reports, with only 13% of the student body identifying themselves as white (Zezima 2010).
The school also promotes diversity of social classes: Three out of five students qualify for Pell Grants, non-repayable federal funds given to low-income students (Khadaroo 2010). Two-thirds of students are from Massachusetts; one quarter are from other states, and the remaining students are from outside the country (Princeton Review).

“Think of the tools in a tool-box: there is a hammer, pliers, a saw, a screwdriver, a rule, a glue-pot, nails and screws.—The function of words are as diverse as the functions of these objects.”

“Is it possible
That any may find
Within one heart so diverse mind,
To change or turn as weather and wind?
Is it possible?”
