<p>I am being recruited at both Amherst and Bowdoin for athletics and am trying to decide between the two schools for ED. Any information as to why I should pick Amherst over Bowdoin besides the prestige factor would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.</p>
<p>How about no core curriculum? You get to take whatever you want outside your major. As an athlete, this should look good so you can take classes that will work with your athletic schedule.</p>
