Our home in Western Massachusetts’ Pioneer Valley lets us tap the resources and faculty of the local Five College Consortium. We are minutes from Amherst, Hampshire, Mount Holyoke, and Smith colleges and the University of Massachusetts.

This year, Williston will welcome faculty members from the nearby colleges to speak to students.

• December 8: Jennifer Beichman, Smith College, Math Department
• January 12: Colin MacCormack, Smith College, Classical Language Department
• January 28: Ishmael Annang, Mt. Holyoke College, History Department
• February 11: Nicholas Holschuh, Amherst College, Geology Department
• March 30: Joel Westerdale, Smith College, German Department

For field trips or just for fun, students
have access to world-class museums
and libraries at the nearby colleges and universities.

Be it dance, theater, or music, phenomenal arts shows are just a van-ride away.

The Five College brain trust is abundant. Faculty frequently comes to Williston to share expertise.

Scholars are right around the corner when you’re looking for original research.

Students head to the University of Massachusetts every year for Classics Day, an exploration of all things ancient.
