What is unique/special about Amherst College?

<p>Adidasnike, I think that’s definitely unfair. Firstly, this is a problem that is widespread across campuses in America, and not unique to amherst. Further, while I agree that the administration did a horrible job in the past regarding these cases, it looks promising that much will change. Our new president was already working on reforming this system before the this came to light and I hope that after this, reforms will be even more thorough and fast. I’m also very proud of the large majority of the student body, who took up this issue and created the tide towards this publicity and reform. There are less savory parts of the campus(e.g. Some sports teams–heard rather negative things about the lacrosse team), but most people are very supportive, open, and activated to push lasting reforms through the administration.</p>
