<p>Here is an odd question but one that I've heard mentioned before: From the online map of Williams, it seems that the road "Route 2" basically splits the campus in half. Is Route 2 "a major eastwest state highway in Massachusetts" in Williamstown, or is just basically a large road? I visited Williams and loved the campus, but didn't really remember any huge road. Does Route 2 separate the two parts of campus physically or is it just a road?</p>
<p>Also, could you chance me for Williams and:</p>
<p>Dartmouth (did ED, got deferred)

<p>I am a white boy from Massachusetts...immediate negative. My family is very financially secure, and I WILL NOT apply for financial aid because my family would have received next to nothing.</p>

<p>Although I haven't read the teacher recs themselves, I'm sure they are fantastic. My history teacher really liked me and my math teacher enjoyed how I taught the class how to graph sine waves using Excel (I hope/think she referenced this)</p>
<p>My essay is about how I used to hate visiting my grandfather because he has no modern technology. It was only after his death that I realized I had been blinded by 21st century material possesions. My AP lit teacher said it was an excellent essay and she said she praised it more than she typically praises an essay....</p>
