| ADDITIONAL INFORMATION |
 |
HMC is a community of scholars. Everyone here has a rich interest in math and science and loves to learn.
We expect great things from our students, and that includes trusting them to behave with maturity and integrity. Our trust is so strong that we’ve put issues of academic and social integrity in the hands of our students. It’s the Honor Code, and it’s an important part of the HMC experience.
From an active arts scene to top-notch student athletics, there’s plenty to do on campus. The event calendar is full to the brim with great things to see and do. There are many student organizations and leadership roles available. (About 200 leadership positions exist for a student population of about 720.)
