You may also be interested in Wikipedia's entry on Williams College, which has some good information.
WSO/wiki is hosted by Williams Students Online and is not officially related to the college. It uses MediaWiki, the same software that powers the free and famous Wikipedia. A Wiki is a site with many informative articles that anyone can edit. Feel free to contribute! We want this site to become a definitive source of information about Williams. Articles, biographies, stories, and how-to's are welcome, and on nearly any subject: buildings, people, organizations, classes, computing, hiking, anything of, about, or near the college. To edit an article, click "Edit this page" at the bottom of the article. To create a new article, there first needs to be a link to it; you can edit an existing, related article to create that link. You will probably want to consult Wikipedia's editing guide to learn the proper syntax. Feel free to experiment in the Sandbox.
