The Five College Consortium -- composed of Amherst, Hampshire, Mount Holyoke, and Smith Colleges, and the University of Massachusetts at Amherst -- offers a rich and varied set of possibilities for students and faculty interested in philosophy. Each of the philosophy departments at the five institutions works individually and collectively to augment numerous course options with guest speakers, symposia, and library resources.
