Pluck off Williams, and this is a great list.[/quote]
I’m old, but I have always looked at Williams to be a stronghold in certain humanities such as Art History. Are the students there not interested in the humanities anymore?[/quote]
Not at all. Even art history enrollment is collapsing under a new generation more fascinated by math and economics. It's a good school, but it is not the place for the kind of student who struggles with lack of community in the humanities. Amherst has played the game a lot better and gotten a more diverse profile of student.[/quote]
Williams is still great for art history. It’s just (with only slight exaggeration) every other kid is an econ or CS major, and every third kid is an econ major who is an athlete. [/quote]
I’m not even sure if this is a slight exaggeration![/quote]
