Scripps College Scripps College, a top-ranked women's liberal arts college, prepares students to contribute to society through leadership, service, integrity & creativity.

Scripps College is home to a proud community of intelligent and inspiring women, who support each other in every endeavor. From the natural beauty of our campus in Claremont, Southern California, we offer a modern and rigorous approach to the liberal arts that equips our students to live and learn with intention. Our sunny location at the base of the San Gabriel Mountains and just 35 miles from Los Angeles provides students with a convenient home base from which to explore one of the most diverse and multicultural regions in the country, and our home within the Claremont Consortium affords them with all the benefits of a women’s college alongside the opportunities and connection of a much larger co-ed institution. The learning environment at Scripps is engaging, thought-provoking, and alive with community and creativity; encouraging students to learn to think deeply, communicate thoughtfully, and navigate their careers and lives with confidence.

A Scripps education doesn’t prepare you for just one career, it gives you the skills to navigate what comes next. ✨ 🧳

Scripps College’s new Career Action Plan (CAP) builds career preparation into all four years, helping students explore their interests, gain experience, build professional relationships, and develop the confidence to make purposeful choices about their futures.

For alum Meris Mullaley ’05, an interdisciplinary Scripps education provided skills she has carried through a nonlinear career journey from archaeology and museum education to video game worldbuilding.

CAP builds on that same idea: your Scripps education can give you the adaptability to grow, change direction, and pursue new possibilities throughout your life.

Barbara Bruner ’76 is continuing that legacy through a $37,000 gift to the Laspa Center for Leadership. Her support will help Scripps students participate in the Carter Center Executive Briefing, building their understanding of global challenges and values-driven leadership.

Since 2007, Barbara has sponsored 22 Scripps students through the opportunity. Her continued investment reflects one way alums can help open doors for the next generation of Scripps leaders.

Curiosity has always been part of the Scripps experience, and today’s students are continuing that tradition in new ways. 💡💚

At the 2026 Research Tea, four Scripps students presented summer research spanning political rhetoric, neuroscience, art and women’s history, and economic history. Their projects demonstrate how a Scripps education encourages students to connect disciplines, challenge assumptions, and pursue questions that matter to them.

From the classroom to research labs and archives, the Scripps experience continues to give students the freedom to explore where their ideas can take them.
