There aren't many study-stopping athletic events, although whenever CMS and PP match up it attracts a crowd. Stag vs. Sagehen basketball games are the most exciting, with intense play, close games, packed stands with both sides in full attendance, and post game spectator brawls between rivals. Outside of NCAA sports, there are intramural leagues that pit dorm against dorm. IM sports include flag football, inner-tube water polo, softball, basketball and soccer. Flag football and basketball produce particularly intense match-ups.
Housing is available in tradition residence halls and on-campus apartments.
Needless to say, this is not a commuter college. That almost everyone lives on campus is vital to CMC's social life . Since the city of Claremont is not really a college town , on campus housing is the most attractive option. Living arrangements range from multi-floored towers to traditional style dorms to 4 room suites.
