I thought Amherst was better situated near a town than Williams. The commercial district next to Williams is very very small.

Maybe it's because I've never been to Amherst when the weather has been anything other than disgusting, but I've never really been impressed by the campus.

Calling USC beautiful requires you to be very near-sighted.
