<div>Winter Study is the span of weeks between the two semesters at Williams. The courses offered during winter study may seem silly and frivolous in comparison to the academic rigors of semesterly courses, but nothing could be further from the truth. Many people find that the freedom from the usual constraints allows them to study whatever strikes their fancy, with no concerns about getting credit towards a major or dropping GPA. Winter Study also frequently features courses that include trips abroad, which are highly popular.<br />
<br />
Winter Study for the 2005-2006 school year begins on '''Tuesday, January 3rd''' and ends on '''Thursday, January 26th'''. (Spring classes don't start until the following Wednesday, February 2nd.)<br />

<div>Where's there to eat around here? Here are some restaurants that are nearby, cheap, or good.<br />
<br />
== Colonial Pizza ==<br />
<br />
Constantine, the proprietor, is a minor Route 2 celebrity. This pushy flirt almost invariably concludes his phone exchanges with "OK, I take care of you" in a Greek immigrant accent. Anyway, the pizza is pretty good and not too pricey, although not many people swear by the crust. The calzones aren't bad, either. Colonial's delivers to Williams, and closes at "midnight" (11:30-midnight) on weekdays.<br />
<br />
234 Main St<br />
Williamstown, MA 01267-2641 [http://www.amazon.com/gp/yp/imap.html?asin=B0003SOERO&ostr=&ocity=&ostate=&ozip=&destlat=42.702002&destlong=-73.184498&storePhone=4134589009&storeState=MA&storeZip=01267-2641&storeCity=Williamstown&storeStr=234%20Main%20St&storeName=Colonial%20Pizza map]<br />
Phone: (413) 458-9009<br />
<br />
== Little Anthony's Pizza ==<br />
<br />
Little Anthony's, located in North Adams, is an establisment relatively unknown among Williams students that is becoming well-regarded for its thick, tasty pizza. The Anthony Deluxe is a winner, they deliver to Williams, and they're open till one. What's not to like? Well, for one, they have a $15 minimum order for deliveries. Usually a pizza and a big bottle of soda will get you there.<br />
<br />
1 River St<br />
North Adams, MA 01247-2404<br />
Phone: (413) 662-3600<br />
<br />
==Mezze Bar and Bistro==<br />
<br />
Located a couple of stores before Water Street Books. The fancy restaurant you get your parents to take you to when they're in town. Nice [http://www.mezzerestaurant.com/ website], too.<br />
<br />
== McDonald's ==<br />
<br />
Located a block past the overpass on Rte. 2, the North Adams McDonald's is almost always visited by Williams students between the hours of 1:30 and 5 a.m., the time when it's the only hot food in town. Caveat esor.<br />
<br />
17 Union St<br />
North Adams, MA 01247-3548<br />
Phone: (413) 664-7272<br />
<br />
== Subway ==<br />
<br />
Delicious well priced sandwiches. You will have eaten at one of these before. Ask for the special spicy sauce (it's red in colour - I don't remember its name but it's awesome) Closes too early though.<br />
<br />
== Desperado's ==<br />
<br />
Located in Colonial Plaza, probably ''just'' too far to walk (though you can certainly do that if you want to). It looks kind of like a hole in the wall, but the food is good. Tex-Mex makes for a nice change from the Spring Street restaurants.<br />
<br />
Pretty standard American fast food type tex-mex fare-- Nothing too well seasoned or too savory. Just a basic alternative to wrap night.<br />
<br />
It's pretty easy to get served alcohol here, perhaps easiest at the Desperados in North Adams.<br />
<br />
== Hobson's Choice ==<br />
<br />
Located on the west side of Water Street between Latham and Meacham, Hobson's Choice offers excellent "American cuisine and seafood" for moderate prices. It features a make-your-own-salad bar, and the cozy atmosphere is highlighted by lots of those little hand-crafted puzles where you have to get a metal ring off some convoluted intertwining of other metal rings and triangles and bars. You know the sort. [[Brent Yorgey|I]] highly recommend the Cajun blackened swordfish/tuna.<br />
<br />
Not to be confused with [http://afactor.net/hcf/index.html Hobson's Choice in Williamstown, Victoria, Australia]. You may also be interested to know the [http://www.wordorigins.org/wordorh.htm#Hobson's origin of the phrase] (a "hobson's choice" is a supposed choice where there is really no choice at all; presumably, in this context the implication is that one has no choice but to eat at the restaurant, since the food is so good).<br />
<br />
159 Water Street Williamstown, MA 01267 Phone: (413) 458-9101<br />
<br />
== Helen's Place ==<br />
<br />
== Blue Benn Diner ==<br />
<br />
Located in Bennington (Keep driving up Rt. 7 through Bennington. You'll se an authentic, tiny diner on your left. An amazing variety of food available, from meatloaf to french fries. Not high class, but still delicious.<br />
<br />
== Water Street Grill ==<br />
<br />
== Thai Garden ==<br />
<br />
Yummy Thai food, reasonably priced, and conveniently located on Spring Street. What's not to like?<br />
<br />
If you have never eaten Thai food before, the Pad Thai is a good thing to order.<br />
<br />
== Spice Root ==<br />
<br />
Spice Root is a mid sized restaraunt on Spring Street that serves Indian food. The food is as close to authentic Indian that you'll find within a pretty good radius, and tastes quite good. Modestly priced student meals are available ($10 for a sit in meal and $5 for a take away of small proportions) The Naan bread is good, as is the tandoori chicken. The chole (pronounced chho-lay) served with a student meal is excellent.<br />
<br />
Not for the hard-core Indian food fans who might be offended by the mixture of North Indian and South Indian cuisines, but definitely worth a try.<br />
<br />
23 Spring St, Williamstown, MA<br />
(413) 458-5200<br />
<br />
== Rattlesnake Cafe ==<br />
<br />
The best...or only place in the area to get Mexican food. Large portions of food and well worth the trip. To get there, take Rt. 7 most of the way through Bennington. It will be hidden back a ways on your left, and very brightly colored.<br />
<br />
== Jae's Inn ==<br />
An asian fusian restaurant that is better than both Thai Garden and Chopsticks (in my opinion). Jae's Inn is also less pricey than Thai Garden...It's located just a little past Walmart on the right. Their pad thai is especially amazing if you prefer your pad thai an americanized, sugar filled glob. The sushi is divine as well. <br />
<br />
It's a little far, but definitely worth the drive! It's also an Inn (as you might guess from the name...), so it's a bit nicer, but the ambiance is still very warm and inviting, with an art collection better suited for the walmart across the street.<br />
<br />
1111 South State Street (Rt 8) North Adams, MA 01247 (413) 664-0100<br />
<br />
== Chopsticks ==<br />
<br />
Saki saki saki BOMB!<br />
<br />
One time Bibby ordered from here and attempted to get sushi, and they weren't having it. For some reason, he kept asking the foreign phone answerer for more and more complex types of sushi, much to everyone's surprise. Finally, they agreed on some bizarre kind of sushi. Needless to say, Bibby wound up with 6 spring rolls. He called to complain, but it was OK because nobody who he was talking to spoke English. The end.<br />
<br />
== Moonlight Diner ==<br />
<br />
== Gramercy Bistro ==<br />
<br />
A small, cozy bistro right near Mass MOCA. Excellent appetizers (especially the crab cake with a light wasabi sauce) and pretty nice desserts (the chocolate cake with raspberry hits the spot), but the entrees themselves were on the weak side. Reservations recommended. [http://www.gramercybistro.com/ Website]. Phone: (413) 663-5300.<br />
<br />
== Gideon's ==<br />
<br />
== Ye Olde Forge ==<br />
<br />
A restaurant/tavern on Rt. 7 about 20 minutes from campus. The wings alone are reason enough to make the trip. Also famous for its wide selection of beers and the Beer Card (sample 50 different beers within a year and you'll get an engraved pewter stein).<br />
<br />
Don't forget to have a designated driver!<br />
This is a classic getaway, especially for upperclassmen, but over the years it has become increasingly popular among the Williams community. A perfect night at the Forge involves several of their quality beers on tap (they normally have about 15 on tap at any time in addition to almost 300 more bottled varieties available), a cup of chili with cheeze and top it off with some Dean's Original wings (the buffalo style). Contrary to popular belief, the Forge also does food other than wings, which is also very tasty.<br />
<br />
On the poster above the urinal in the male bathroom you may witness ongoing communication between two 05's (Shokstar and Z-mac) who loved the place more than anything else and still return there despite having graduated and living several hours away.<br />
<br />
== Pappa Charlie's Deli ==<br />
<br />
Tastier than Subway, but also slightly more expensive. Mad crowded whenever any parents are in town. They make all sorts of sandwiches named after celebrities. Their gyros are surprisingly weak. Don't forget about the tasty juice/smoothie bar in the basement!<br />
<br />
== Purple Pub ==</div>137.165.223.192https://wso.williams.edu/wiki/index.php?title=Procrastinating&diff=2461Procrastinating2005-10-16T21:44:32Z<p>137.165.223.192: </p>

<hr />
<div>Beirut (also known as beer pong, though never in the company of a Williams student) is a game which consists of throwing ping pong balls into plastic cups which contain beer.<br />
<br />
Around here, teams consist of two members, and each team has, in front of them, two triangular racks of six, separated by a few inches or so. When a player sinks one of the opposing team's cups, the team must drink the beer in the cup, and remove the cup from play. if a team sinks both of their shots, they receive the balls back and get to try again. One rerack only, at six cups.<br />
<br />
Remember, Beirut is not just another drinking game. It is a game of skill, and the game of choice.</div>137.165.223.192https://wso.williams.edu/wiki/index.php?title=Your_Mom&diff=2406Your Mom2005-10-16T01:36:55Z<p>137.165.223.192: </p>

<div>Where's there to eat around here? Here are some restaurants that are nearby, cheap, or good.<br />
<br />
== Colonial Pizza ==<br />
<br />
Constantine, the proprietor, is a minor Route 2 celebrity. This pushy flirt almost invariably concludes his phone exchanges with "OK, I take care of you" in a Greek immigrant accent. Anyway, the pizza is pretty good and not too pricey, although not many people swear by the crust. The calzones aren't bad, either. Colonial's delivers to Williams, and closes at "midnight" (11:30-midnight) on weekdays.<br />

<br />
== Little Anthony's Pizza ==<br />
<br />
Little Anthony's, located in North Adams, is an establisment relatively unknown among Williams students that is becoming well-regarded for its thick, tasty pizza. The Anthony Deluxe is a winner, they deliver to Williams, and they're open till one. What's not to like? Well, for one, they have a $15 minimum order for deliveries. Usually a pizza and a big bottle of soda will get you there.<br />

Phone: (413) 662-3600<br />
<br />
==Mezze Bar and Bistro==<br />
<br />
Located a couple of stores before Water Street Books. The fancy restaurant you get your parents to take you to when they're in town. Nice [http://www.mezzerestaurant.com/ website], too.<br />
<br />
== McDonald's ==<br />
<br />
Located a block past the overpass on Rte. 2, the North Adams McDonald's is almost always visited by Williams students between the hours of 1:30 and 5 a.m., the time when it's the only hot food in town. Caveat esor.<br />

<br />
== Subway ==<br />
<br />
Delicious well priced sandwiches. You will have eaten at one of these before. Ask for the special spicy sauce (it's red in colour - I don't remember its name but it's awesome) Closes too early though.<br />
<br />
== Desperado's ==<br />
<br />
Located in Colonial Plaza, probably ''just'' too far to walk (though you can certainly do that if you want to). It looks kind of like a hole in the wall, but the food is good. Tex-Mex makes for a nice change from the Spring Street restaurants.<br />
<br />
Pretty standard American fast food type tex-mex fare-- Nothing too well seasoned or too savory. Just a basic alternative to wrap night.<br />
<br />
== Hobson's Choice ==<br />
<br />
Located on the west side of Water Street between Latham and Meacham, Hobson's Choice offers excellent "American cuisine and seafood" for moderate prices. It features a make-your-own-salad bar, and the cozy atmosphere is highlighted by lots of those little hand-crafted puzles where you have to get a metal ring off some convoluted intertwining of other metal rings and triangles and bars. You know the sort. [[Brent Yorgey|I]] highly recommend the Cajun blackened swordfish/tuna.<br />
<br />
Not to be confused with [http://afactor.net/hcf/index.html Hobson's Choice in Williamstown, Victoria, Australia]. You may also be interested to know the [http://www.wordorigins.org/wordorh.htm#Hobson's origin of the phrase] (a "hobson's choice" is a supposed choice where there is really no choice at all; presumably, in this context the implication is that one has no choice but to eat at the restaurant, since the food is so good).<br />

== Helen's Place ==<br />
<br />
== Blue Benn Diner ==<br />
<br />
Located in Bennington (Keep driving up Rt. 7 through Bennington. You'll se an authentic, tiny diner on your left. An amazing bvariety of food available, from meatloaf to french fries. Not high class, but still delicious.<br />
<br />
== Water Street Grill ==<br />
<br />
== Thai Garden ==<br />
<br />
== Spice Root ==<br />
<br />
Spice Root is a mid sized restaraunt on Spring Street that serves Indian food. The food is as close to authentic Indian that you'll find within a pretty good radius, and tastes quite good. Modestly priced student meals are available ($10 for a sit in meal and $5 for a take away of small proportions) The Naan bread is good, as is the tandoori chicken. The chole (pronounced chho-lay) served with a student meal is excellent.<br />
<br />
Not for the hard-core Indian food fans who might be offended by the mixture of North Indian and South Indian cuisines, but definitely worth a try.<br />
<br />
23 Spring St, Williamstown, MA<br />
(413) 458-5200<br />
<br />
== Rattlesnake Cafe ==<br />
<br />
The best...or only place in the area to get Mexican food. Large portions of food and well worth the trip. To get there, take Rt. 7 most of the way through Bennington. It will be hidden back a ways on your left, and very brightly colored.<br />
<br />
== Jae's Inn ==<br />
An asian fusian restaurant that is better than both Thai Garden and Chopsticks (in my opinion). Jae's Inn is also less pricey than Thai Garden...It's located just a little past Walmart on the right. Their pad thai is especially amazing, if your prefrence for pad thai is americanized, sugar filled glob. and the sushi is divine as well. <br />
<br />
It's a little far, but definitely worth the drive! It's also an Inn (as you might guess from the name...), so it's a bit nicer, but the ambiance is still very warm and inviting, with an art collection better suited for the walmart across the street.<br />

<br />
== Grammercy Bistro ==<br />
<br />
A small, cozy bistro right near Mass MOCA.

Reservations recommended. [http://www.gramercybistro.com/ Website]. Phone: (413) 663-5300.<br />
<br />
== Gideon's ==<br />
<br />
== The Forge ==<br />
<br />
A restaurant/tavern on Rt. 7 about 20 minutes from campus. The wings alone are reason enough to make the trip. Also famous for its wide selection of beers and the Beer Card (sample 50 different beers within a year and you'll get an engraved pewter stein).<br />

== Spice Root ==<br />
<br />
Spice Root is a mid sized restaraunt on Spring Street that serves Indian food. The food is as close to authentic Indian that you'll find within a pretty good radius, and tastes quite good. Modestly priced student meals are available ($10 for a sit in meal and $5 for a take away of small proportions) The Naan bread is good, as is the tandoori chicken. The chole (pronounced chho-lay) served with a student meal is excellent.<br />
<br />
Not for the hard-core Indian food fans who might be offended by the mixture of North Indian and South Indian cuisines, but definitely worth a try.<br />

<br />
== Rattlesnake Cafe ==<br />
<br />
The best...or only place in the area to get Mexican food. Large portions of food and well worth the trip.<br />
<br />
<br />
Take Rt. 7 most of the way through Bennington. It will be hidden back a ways on your left, and very brightly colored.<br />
<br />
== Jae's Inn ==<br />
An asian fusian restaurant that is better than both Thai Garden and Chopsticks (in my opinion). Jae's Inn is also less pricey than Thai Garden...It's located just a little past Walmart on the right. Their pad thai is especially amazing, if your prefrence for pad thai is americanized, sugar filled glob. and the sushi is divine as well. <br />
<br />
It's a little far, but definitely worth the drive! It's also an Inn (as you might guess from the name...), so it's a bit nicer, but the ambiance is still very warm and inviting, with an art collection better suited for the walmart across the street.<br />

<br />
A small, cozy bistro right near Mass MOCA. Excellent appetizers (especially the crab cake with a light wasabi sauce) and pretty nice desserts (the chocolate cake with raspberry hits the spot), but the entrees themselves were on the weak side. Reservations recommended. [http://www.gramercybistro.com/ Website]. Phone: (413) 663-5300.<br />

<br />
== The Forge ==<br />
<br />
A restaurant/tavern on Rt. 7 about 20 minutes from campus. The wings alone are reason enough to make the trip. Also famous for its wide selection of beers and the Beer Card (sample 50 different beers within a year and you'll get an engraved pewter stein).<br />

<div>Where's there to eat around here? Here are some restaurants that are nearby, cheap, or good.<br />
<br />
== Colonial Pizza ==<br />
<br />
Constantine, the proprietor, is a minor Route 2 celebrity. This pushy flirt almost invariably concludes his phone exchanges with "OK, I take care of you" in a Greek immigrant accent. Anyway, the pizza is pretty good and not too pricey, although not many people swear by the crust. The calzones aren't bad, either. Colonial's delivers to Williams, and closes at "midnight" (11:30-midnight) on weekdays.<br />
<br />
234 Main St<br />
Williamstown, MA 01267-2641 [http://www.amazon.com/gp/yp/imap.html?asin=B0003SOERO&ostr=&ocity=&ostate=&ozip=&destlat=42.702002&destlong=-73.184498&storePhone=4134589009&storeState=MA&storeZip=01267-2641&storeCity=Williamstown&storeStr=234%20Main%20St&storeName=Colonial%20Pizza map]<br />
Phone: (413) 458-9009<br />
<br />
== Little Anthony's Pizza ==<br />
<br />
Little Anthony's, located in North Adams, is an establisment relatively unknown among Williams students that is becoming well-regarded for its thick, tasty pizza. The Anthony Deluxe is a winner, they deliver to Williams, and they're open till one. What's not to like? Well, for one, they have a $15 minimum order for deliveries. Usually a pizza and a big bottle of soda will get you there.<br />
<br />
1 River St<br />
North Adams, MA 01247-2404<br />
Phone: (413) 662-3600<br />
<br />
== McDonald's ==<br />
<br />
Located a block past the overpass on Rte. 2, the North Adams McDonald's is almost always visited by Williams students between the hours of 1:30 and 5 a.m., the time when it's the only hot food in town. Caveat esor.<br />
<br />
17 Union St<br />
North Adams, MA 01247-3548<br />
Phone: (413) 664-7272<br />
<br />
== Subway ==<br />
<br />
Delicious well priced sandwiches. You will have eaten at one of these before. Ask for the special spicy sauce (it's red in colour - I don't remember its name but it's awesome) Closes too early though.<br />
<br />
== Desperado's ==<br />
<br />
Located in Colonial Plaza, probably ''just'' too far to walk (though you can certainly do that if you want to). It looks kind of like a hole in the wall, but the food is good. Tex-Mex makes for a nice change from the Spring Street restaurants.<br />
<br />
Pretty standard American fast food type tex-mex fare-- Nothing too well seasoned or too savory. Just a basic alternative to wrap night.<br />
<br />
== Hobson's Choice ==<br />
<br />
Located on the west side of Water Street between Latham and Meacham, Hobson's Choice offers excellent "American cuisine and seafood" for moderate prices. It features a make-your-own-salad bar, and the cozy atmosphere is highlighted by lots of those little hand-crafted puzles where you have to get a metal ring off some convoluted intertwining of other metal rings and triangles and bars. You know the sort. [[Brent Yorgey|I]] highly recommend the Cajun blackened swordfish/tuna.<br />
<br />
Not to be confused with [http://afactor.net/hcf/index.html Hobson's Choice in Williamstown, Victoria, Australia]. You may also be interested to know the [http://www.wordorigins.org/wordorh.htm#Hobson's origin of the phrase] (a "hobson's choice" is a supposed choice where there is really no choice at all; presumably, in this context the implication is that one has no choice but to eat at the restaurant, since the food is so good).<br />

<br />
== Helen's Place ==<br />
<br />
== Blue Benn Diner ==<br />
<br />
Located in Bennington (Keep driving up Rt. 7 through Bennington. You'll se an authentic, tiny diner on your left. An amazing bvariety of food available, from meatloaf to french fries. Not high class, but still delicious.<br />
<br />
== Water Street Grill ==<br />
<br />
