Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

True, you have to work hard at Williams, and As are hard to get, but the amount of personal attention and the quality of instruction make every bead of sweat worth it. Williams professors are accessible, articulate, and extremely erudite. Whatever their specific field, they share a commitment to encourage students to explore and learn, both within and beyond the classroom. Williams professors are also willing to devote whatever time necessary to help a student learn.

While the workload does vary with separate departments, students are constantly challenged to improve their skills and obtain new ones, as well. They are also encouraged to share these achievements with others. Professors allow for each student to have his or her own style of learning, and they are supportive of everyone’s individual learning process. Students have to work hard, but they enjoy help and inspiration from their professors every step of the way.

Professors Are AMAZING

All of the professors I've had are extremely engaging and really care about their students' learning experiences. They love going out to coffee, lunch or dinner with students to continue the fascinating discussion in class.

English

The English department at Williams is phenomenal, offering numerous courses in comparative literature, criticism, and literary histories. In addition, there are many gateway courses offered in which the critical, analytic methods used in English classes are applied to other subjects. For example, I took an English class which studied contemporary fiction of the environment after the 1970s. All of the professors are extremely approachable and accessible, allowing me to receive some of the strongest recommendations I have ever had for internships.
