[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]40% of the williams class are recruited athletes and it is extremely remote. [/quote] The % of recruited athletes is similar or smaller than a peer school like Amherst which has a smaller student population and the same number of sports. Possibly, Williams outreach to minorities and families with less means hasn't been as strong as some peers though I have no evidence to back that up. I do agree its remoteness even compared to peer schools like Amherst (which can market its membership in the 5 College Consortium w/nearly 30,000 other college students within a few mile radius) limits the pool of applicants. Still, Williams is a wonderful school in a picturesque New England town and is otherwise every bit the match of Amherst in the upper echelon of SLACs.[/quote]
