Coverage

"Febs are different than typical first-years in at least one way. We are almost exclusively white. There is a simple reason for this: the College only reports the diversity statistics of fall admits. Former Director of Admissions Bob Clagett said in a Campus article published in March 2010 that 'we tend not to offer February admission to American students of color unless they specifically ask for it.' By taking a lily-white February class, Middlebury looks much more diverse than we actually are."
