[[Mass MoCA]], various non-profits in North Adams and Williamstown, [[Tanglewood]], [[Peace Valley Farm]], the [[Clark Art Institute]], and [[Overland Adventures]] all provide summer employment or internships. For many of these you'll need a bus pass or a car, the bus is reasonable and quick for North Adams. This is by no means an exhaustive list, the OCC probably has much more information. Many people who work in the surrounding area get [http://wso.williams.edu/wiki/index.php/Fellowships_and_other_cool_opportunities alumni sponsored grants].
* Many recently graduated Ephs (and also not to too recent) work at Waterfront Media in North Adams' Mass Moca.
===Housing, etc.===
Anyone content enough to stay here will find that beside other college students there are plenty of other youths around, some from the [[Williamstown Theater Festival]] and some from various sports camps. You'll know the latter have shown up when you see loads of blinging mercs and lexuses cruising around piloted by trophy mothers.
There are also a number of incoming freshman participating in the [[Summer Humanities and Social Sciences]] program or the Summer Science Program. Obviously, the SHSS program is superior to the nerdy and less good-looking SSP.
===What to do===
Surprisingly, the Berkshire region offers a fair amount of things to do during the summer. The most popular activities include:
*Lots of [[good beer]] drinking outdoors, during the most beautiful time of the year
*Play the empty [[Taconic Golf Club]] every day at dusk until 9pm
*Kareoke Karaoke in North Adams at Gringo's Restaurant on Friday nights
*Outdoor [[beirut]]! The rooftop stadium behind the Harrison Gallery is a perfect spot.
