Your Definition

An uber-liberal, semi-rural 4-yr college in Western MA.

Hampshire College is a member of the Five College Consortium and is viewed as the eccentric hippie school. A well known myth maintains that the characters in Scooby Doo were based on the colleges in the Consortium. Hampshire is said to have been the basis for Shaggy although it did not open until [1970], after the show first aired.

Students receive evaluations rather than grades. Even if you ask, professors will not convert your eval to a grade. Each student has an adviser who, unlike at most schools, tends to actually have a [significant] role in the student's life.

Hampshire is unique in that it has a Farm Center and blacksmithing forges. Its strong subject areas are in the [Natural Sciences] and Film & [Photography].

Hampshire has a small population, but students can take classes, enroll in clubs, and party at the other four schools so diversity (except ideological) and resources are not as limited as at other schools of a similar size.
