Not That Much to Do in Dear Old Williamstown...

If you have a car, there are a lot more options, but without access to transportation, finding things that are off campus and fun to do is really difficult. The town of Williamstown is gorgeous and very safe, albeit super small, and if you like the outdoors, you can find a lot more to do, especially in the spring or fall.
