educ-Colleges and Universities-All-Williams College: Best school, but I'm biased.

Sun, 29 Feb 2004 19:22:15 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author stenz - I graduated from Williams in '99. I was an art major, and I ran XC and indoor/outdoor track. When I was in high school (public school in upstate NY, so I went through the Regents program), I just sort of coasted through and nobody paid me too much...

educ-Colleges and Universities-All-Williams College: Love it or hate it, you'll want to get away...and then come back

Fri, 7 Sep 2001 03:27:33 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author ktchai - I love Williams. But after two years here, I need a break. That is why I am studying away this year. That is why a LOT of students study away (34% of the junior class is going away for a semester or a year).

Why I chose Williams...

educ-Colleges and Universities-All-Williams College: Whatcha wanna do?

Sun, 17 Dec 2000 03:33:50 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author andrewkao - First of all, one has to acknowledge the geographical limits of Williams. To be frank, it's in the middle of frickin' nowhere. While this may be disadvantageous towards certain activities it's also quite condusive for many others. Also, fraternities and...

Wed, 13 Dec 2000 21:23:55 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author andrewkao - I've been at Williams now for about a semester and I must say that I was very pleasantly surprised. Ecstatic even. To be honest, Williams was not my first choice, nor was it the type of school I was terribly interested in when I was applying. I had...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author pike.bishop - I don't know where to start... What a four years I had. I think what will be most helpful to potential applicants of this school is to relate my experience chronologically:

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author mar - I will admit this from the outset: I was, at one point, a very disenchanted Williams student. As a minority and a liberal, I was heavily involved in petitioning for courses in Asian and Latino studies, in recruiting minority professors, and in creating...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author PlayHosea - I applied to Willams College a year ago thinking it was my dream school. I was accepted and attended one of the Williams Preview sessions. It seemed to be everything I expected. Brilliant professors, huge dorms, and a vibrant extra-curricular scene. The...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author gentlementle - Williams College, set in a cozy Northeast town in Western Massachusetts, could be close to being a picture-perfect postcard of a place. In the winters there, I still remember sitting on a couch in the Cold Springs Cafe on Spring Street, watching the...

Thu, 1 Jun 2000 01:20:11 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author duckierose - Everyone I know who has any connection to Williams rants and raves about how wonderful the school is. I'm sure you've heard it too if you've talked to any alumni. What I have to tell you is it's better than you hear, and you can only find that out by...

Thu, 27 Apr 2000 23:15:44 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author commonsense - As a recent alum, I absolutely loved my four years at Williams College and was involved with many aspects of the "college experience": played on a team, was a Junior Advisor (Williams version of a RA, but much better) and was a leader of...

Mon, 17 Apr 2000 16:43:41 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author penguinorama - I graduated from Williams in 1993. The last 5 years I have been a graduate student at Harvard, and also been a resident advisor (tutor) at one of Harvard's dorms (House) for the last 2 years. I'm sure a lot has changed since I graduated, but after...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author ephlet - I'm one of the lucky few who can truly say that they have found the right college for them. Williams is a wonderful place to spend 4 years of your life and most alumni keep in close contact with the school. The best part of Williams would have to...

Fri, 18 Feb 2000 00:09:24 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author renewal2 - I notice nothing but 5 star reviews thus far. I'll give Williams three for reasons I will explain.

First, I went there --class of '58 -- and I was instrumental in helping the school abolish its fraternity system. It was clear to me then that...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author 03mgb - I am currently a first year student at Williams College, one of the best higher education schools (colleges and universities combined) around. It is clear from the recent US News and World Report survey, why students are not only extremely bright but...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author debu_yama - A fantastic place to truly push your limits mentally and physically. The academics, athletics, partying, and weather could kill a lesser man, but Williams is definitely a place that has shaped my life, and perspective on life in a very positive way...

Sat, 29 Jan 2000 19:31:07 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author kquigley - As a freshman at Williams College, I feel that I have found the best-kept secret in the academic world. While the majority of my senior class went to schools in New England, few people on the West Coast have heard of this small and reasonably...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author 99ejs - As all Williams alums know, James Garfield believed that "the ideal education is Mark Hopkins at one end of a log and a student at the other."

Wed, 26 Jan 2000 00:02:26 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author emily002 - Williams is one of my first choices in looking at colleges. Of course, the admissions are extremely competitive, so getting in is really difficult. I'll report the only bad thing I know about the school first, when I visited, so many of the people I...
