Bring It Home AC

 New Field House

When the unbeaten Lord Jeffs take the field later this afternoon for their home opener against Bowdoin, they will be playing second fiddle to their spectacular playing field as today marks the first time Amherst College Pratt Field will host a football game after a mega-million dollar renovation. 

What's left of mainstream media will have nifty new press box

Newly realigned banked running track

Amherst:  Where only the h is silent (or, even the h)

Camperdown Elm almost became collateral damage but was gently moved (at $100K cost) out of the way

  1. And no out of control traffic nor students. They have left -- who won?

  3. It wouldn't have anything to do with the way that people treat them, would it?

    Seems to me that AC, with what 1/10th the students, runs at least 1/2 the AFD calls that UM does, which means a higher per-student ratio yet you don't see any of the same attitudes, do you?

    That, of course, wouldn't have anything to do with attitude toward the town in response, would it? Of course not...
