Simon's Rock College - Simon's Rock College Simon's Rock College is a small liberal arts college located in the small town of Great Barrington (population 8000), in Berkshire County, Mass. The foremost of the many unusual things about Simon's Rock is that most students enroll after completing the tenth grade of high school, rather than after graduating. The college's founder, Elizabeth Blodgett Hall, had formerly been a private school headmistress. She concluded from her experience, and that of her colleagues, that for many students the latter two years of high school are wasted on repetitious and overly constrained work. Many young women (and men -- but for its first few years in the '60s, Simon's Rock admitted only women), she thought, are ready to pursue college-level academic work some time before.

Geography of the Interior United States - on the inner side of the escarpment. Lake Erie, Lake Huron and Lake Michigan lie in depressions in the lowland on the outer side. When the two lowlands are traced eastward, they become confluent after the Niagara limestone has faded away in central New York and the single lowland is continued under the name of Mohawk Valley. This is an east-west longitudinal depression that has been eroded on a belt of relatively weak strata between the resistant crystalline rocks of the Adirondacks on the north and the northern escarpment of the Appalachian plateau (Catskills-Helderbergs) on the south. Early in the U.S. history, this provided a vital economic route between the Atlantic seaports and the U.S. interior. In Wisconsin, the inner lowland has an interesting feature. It is a knob of resistant.
