[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lots of great information about Williams on this thread - I would add two things:

1) The arts community is large and extremely vibrant. WCMA, the Clark, and of course MassMOCA nearby. The Art History and Studio Art programs are very highly regarded. And performing arts rivals the athletics community in size (of course there is a lot of overlap!). There are probably 6 a capella groups alone, which is a lot for a 2000 student college. The '62 Center is amazing, not to mention the Berkshire symphony. It's a wonderful, creative place, and the arts are a big draw for many students.

2) I would think most students go to Williams "because of" not "in spite of" the location. If the rural setting gives one pause, they should seriously reconsider IMO- and probably spend a good amount of time on campus and in the surrounding area, talk to current students, etc., before deciding to attend.[/quote]
If someone is looking for a serious art history department that is large and diverse, I’d look at Yale. Williams doesn’t really offer anything unique that you can’t get at any other college with its museum and art history department. It’s seen as a prized jewel on this forum, but that doesn’t at all reflect the industry.[/quote]
