<p>^^I would take the above advice with a huge grain of salt. Amherst students, like most co-ed LAC campuses, exist within a bubble which means, for the most part, they restrict themselves to finding everything they need on campus, even if it means making compromises. It is a net importer of 5C students and it takes a lot of coaxing to get them off campus and when they do leave it is seldom for UMass.</p>
