[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let me rattle off all the bad faith anti-Amherst talking points before someone else gets to them:

- Campus is such a dump that opening your eyes is unbearable
- Athletes and non-athletes get into fights if they make eye contact
- Fellowships are so rare that the school holds celebrations if someone gets one
- Academics are so low-caliber that students only go to local state schools for graduate school
- Every single student is an LGBTQ+ test-optional POC

I think that covers it[/quote]

I think you have them all covered except that the job placement is so bad that kids are forced to go to NYC and work in finance.[/quote] Don't forget its intersection with "The reason Amherst students go to grad school at high rates is because they can't get jobs."[/quote]

Or, they’re highly intelligent, academically successful, and professionally ambitious compared to those with only undergraduate degrees? Amherst is top-ranked for outcomes in medicine and law, for example. [/quote]
