Why Give?

In the gentle light of the Berkshire hills, Williams pursues a bold ambition: To provide the finest possible liberal arts education. If the goal is immodest, it is also bracing: Elevating the sights and standards of every member of the community, encouraging them to keep faith with the challenge inscribed on the College’s gates: “climb high, climb far.”

Williams is an idea about undergraduate liberal arts education that has endured and prospered for more than 200 years.
