[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Amherst grad here. Academics by far dominates over athletics. Not even close. Hell, the a capella group at Amherst is more popular than the athletic teams. [/quote] Hmm, really? I actually know someone from Amherst who complained about this very issue that OP is raising.[/quote] I'm an Amherst grad (non-athlete) and yes, all the athletes are smart people. However, it is also true that a non-athlete is going to have to work harder to find their people. There was a report that was circulated to the Amherst community that acknowledged that sports plays too dominate a role in the social life - maybe it's available on the website? I'd make sure that there is some club or something that the kid is excited about that is offered by Amherst. [/quote]
