International Students Pt. 1: Ireland & The UK

Approximately 10 percent of Amherst’s student population comes from outside of the US, and beyond that, many faculty members and staff are from a completely different corner of the world. This diversity is one of the things that makes Amherst such an exciting place to learn, while simultaneously engendering divides within the student body. In this inaugural series, Rebecca highlights the voices of Amherst's international student population, beginning close to her own home of Northern Ireland.

The Amherst to Wall Street Pipeline

In 2020, 1/5 of Amherst College graduates went on to work in the finance industry; the next-highest number of grads — only 11% — went into consulting. In other words, finance is far and away the most appealing industry to Amherst students. At a school with such diverse opportunities, and which purports itself to be a progressive institution, why does there seem to be an Amherst-to-Wall-Street pipeline? What are the real reasons why so many Amherst students flock to the world of finance? On this episode, staff podcaster and writer Andrew Rosin '25 delves into these questions, and more. Produced by Sam Spratford '24 Edited by Nicole Richards '23
