  • The Amherst Class of 1994 diaspora has expanded all over the world, including to Norway. That's where we find Inger-Lise Schwab representing the Purple and White. In this episode, she shares thoughts on how to combat sunlight deprivation, the distinctions between the elite colleges and universities in the United States and the more egalitarian Norwegian system of higher education, and lots and lots of Amherst College memories, many of them dripping with mischief. Oh, and she's the only classmate I've interviewed (so far) to have an IMDB credit (look it up). In this episode, you'll learn: The creative ways Inger-Lise and her family bring light and lightness into their world, especially when they may only get a few hours of sun a day in the wintertime The role that the Amherst College dining halls played in creating social cohesion The naked bike rides through campus, swimming in the nearby reservoir, "after hours" visits to the observatory, and other fond memories she has of campus life The Amherst classmates she wants me to interview next You can find her on Facebook.
