Amy Goldstein '11 is featured in The Wall Street Journal's Personal Journal section in an article titled "More students head overseas in freshman year" (1/22/08). Hamilton is one of several schools mentioned in the article "which admit a small group of students in the spring semester, (and) often encourage those students to go abroad in the fall before they start." Goldstein was one of 31 Hamilton students who chose to go to London before matriculating in the spring 2008 semester.
The article noted, "Last fall, Ms. Goldstein, the freshman student at Hamilton, lived in a dorm with six other women in London. She says she is not worried about adjusting to campus life. She bonded with the other Hamilton students in her program, so she has a group of friends going into the spring semester. And while the 18-year-old Ms. Goldstein says there are things about London that she will miss, she is excited to start on Hamilton's campus in Clinton, N.Y."
The article concluded, "'I'm ready to go and live and be in the place that I signed up for,' she says."
