[quote=Anonymous]We are a couple of years away from applying anywhere, but were at a family event this spring nearby, and stopped in fog a tour. The tour guide was nice, but spent a lot of time talking about how stressed she was doing the tour when she had a class immediately after the tour. Felt rushed. I thought the campus was fine, but I kept thinking, "I can't believe this is Amherst." It really is underwhelming. The buildings aren't interesting and they're all in a little cluster, with people driving through the campus. We saw smith and Mount Holyoke on previous family trips and both are far more impressive. I realize this is all superficial and what matters are the academics and social life. But the physical plant is more like a 7 when one would expect a 9 or 10.[/quote]
