<p>Yeah, it’s the same town. But really…the college isn’t associated with the high school in the slightest, other than possibly doing some community service work there. Still freaky for us MHC students, though…</p>
<p>888sale, there is definitely a direct one from MHC to Boston, but for MHC to NYC you might have to transfer. The Amtrak train is actually a better option, unless you’re concerned about cost. I take the train from Springfield to Philadelphia every time I go home on break; it’s about a $35 taxi ride from campus to Springfield. Taking the PVTA bus to UMass campus is also an option (the Amherst Amtrak station is a 5-10 minute walk from the bus stop, VERY easy), but it actually shaves off a full hour-and-a-half on the train ride if you go from Springfield.</p>
