Brandeis University

Brandeis University is a small liberal arts college in Waltham, Massachusetts. It currently has approximately 3000 undergraduates and 1300 grad students.

It was founded in 1948 as an Ivy League caliber school that Jews could get into (at the time, Harvard and the rest of the Ivy League schools had quotas on the number of Jews they would accept). The school is named for the late United States Supreme Court Justice Louis Dembitz Brandeis.
