[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids loved the school - the open curriculum, beautiful campus, the culture and the professors they met. The consortium wasn’t even given a second thought [/quote]

+1 There is a reason the editorial mentions other students taking classes at Amherst not the reverse. My kid is beyond happy and academically fulfilled there. She'll do junior year at Oxford to expand her horizons a bit.[/quote]

Look, the strongest school in the consortium is likely to be the one most in demand. But it's a shame there isn't better logistical support for all students to explore the consortium. I told my son he should at least go study at the MHC library because it's such a wonderful space. He said he'd like to but with two lab classes doesn't have time to waste with the shuttle. He wanted to take a freshman seminar that utilized the Smith archives but when he tried to figure out the logistics, said there was just no way. I don't know what the consortium could do other than run the shuttles more often, but that doesn't change the distance and time needed.[/quote]
