Get the macalester mug.Macalester College (Pronounced Mu-cal-est-er; Nickname MAC) is a Liberal Arts college located in Saint Paul, MN.
Though the college itself may be small, the student population consists of 50% Chinese students, 50% International students and about 125% Hipsters.
Students often pride themselves on their self-supposed intellectual superiority, though science has yet to verify such notions.
