<p>I read in a couple of different places, that Amherst is unusually cliquish. Is this true? How do students interact with one another? Do they mainly stick to one group of friends? Is it like high school?</p>
<p>From my limited experience, what I've noticed is that sports teams are the most cliquish, and tend to hang out together a lot. That said, these groups are not exclusive, and I think students here interact with many different groups of people.</p>
