==History==
West college, as everyone knows is the oldest building on campus. What most people don't know that it was actually built by Ephram Williams himself and small band of settlers in the year 1529. While most of the white men in the world at the time still though thought North America was really India, he bravely sailed the atlantic and wandered through the northeaster forests until he found an ideal valley for his planned utopian society.
The building was built by hand. The construction consists mostly of bricks made by a more industriuos tribe in an extensive system of quarries and kilns scattered throughout the area. with labor contracted out to various native tribes, with care taken that no one tribe did too much work and therefore gleaned the secret inner workings of what would become Ephram's Castle. Designed as a settlment, capitol and fortress to allow the settlers and their descendends, heavily inter-bred with the local native populations to retreat to in times of emergency, as well as weather out the winters which would later pose such a problem for the founders of Amherst.
