2016-2017 Scripps Catalog


2016-2017 Scripps Catalog

Scripps College was founded in 1926 by Ellen Browning Scripps, a pioneering philanthropist and influential figure in the world of education, publishing, and women’s rights - a woman ahead of her time.
“The paramount obligation of a college is to develop in its students the ability to think clearly and independently, and the ability to live confidently, courageously, and hopefully.”
-Ellen Browning Scripps
