[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]UMass is not a sight for sore eyes, but it’s a great place to get an education. Excellent accessible professors and opportunities to take classes at the smaller four LACs in the area. [/quote] Hard pass.[/quote] Why? Can you say what there is to dislike about UMass-Amherst so strongly? I toured with my DS18. The campus itself will not win any beauty contests. It is a hodgepodge of 60's architecture and utilitarian buildings along with a few Georgian-ish red brick buildings for that college campus feel. But the landscape of the Pioneer Valley is beautiful. Academically there are a wide variety of academic programs. They have strong research programs in many scientific fields. And access to the Five College Consortium is nothing to sneeze at. I really wanted my DS to choose the school; he preferred a smaller college and went with an SLAC[/quote]
