As I mentioned, Fiona, we don’t know who Horseradish is or what his/her agenda is, but whoever he/she is, they are not in any way representative of Williams or its students (and Horseradish has posted lots of other bizarre things in this forum, fyi). As I said, I wouldn’t impute anything to Williams or any other school based on comments of one zany poster, especially when Williams (like many of its peers) invests a lot of resources in outreach. Of course, there is only so much it can do – it is small school, in a rural location, with lots of kids from privileged or at least very academic environments, so not everyone will necessarly feel comfortable in that setting. But the school does what it can (and again, it is hardly unique in that regard) in terms of both admissions preferences and academic suppor both before and during the school year, and I wouldn’t base any sort of opinon on one poster.
