Dick Farley planned to be the head coach of track and field, assistant football coach, and P.E. instructor at Williams College for a couple of years before moving on to higher levels of football and eventually become an assistant coach in the NFL.Farley had starred in both sports at Boston University (BU), where he earned the scholar athlete award and the top athletic honor. He was inducted into the Boston University Hall of Fame in 1982. He competed in 14 events for BU in track and was drafted as a safety by the San Diego Chargers, where he started for two years. A back injury ended Farley's Chargers career. What Farley learned early on at Williams is that he could not separate his love of football and track and field and he could not leave Williams College. He just could not dedicate himself to football 12 months a year. He encouraged all of his football players to play another sport or take a semester abroad or in some other manner avail of all that Williams had to offer academically. It was never about winning and losing for Dick Farley it was all about giving one's best every day.Farley is likely the only member of the College Football Hall of Fame who coached more college track and field (44 years) than he did football (32).When Farley took over the reins of the Williams football team in 1987 the Ephs lost their first three games, however, the Ephs rebounded to finish 4-4 and Farley began a streak of 128 consecutive games without back to back losses. Little wonder he was named to the ESPN List of the 150 Greatest Football Coaches in 2019. In 1989 Farley's football Ephs recorded the first perfect season in school history 8-0-0 and in his 17-year run as Eph head coach he recorded five perfect seasons and compiled a career record of 114-19-3, .849.Dick Farley will never leave Williams and Williamstown as he has secured a burial plot in the Williams College Cemetery.

A revealing examination of small-town life More than thirty million Americans live in small, out-of-the-way places. Many of them could have joined the vast majority of Americans who live in cities and suburbs. They could live closer to more lucrative careers and convenient shopping, a wider range of educational opportunities, and more robust health care. But they have opted to live differently. In Small-Town America, we meet factory workers, shop owners, retirees, teachers, clergy, and mayors—residents who show neighborliness in small ways, but who also worry about everything from school closings and their children's futures to the ups and downs of the local economy. Drawing on more than seven hundred in-depth interviews in hundreds of towns across America and three decades of census data, Robert Wuthnow shows the fragility of community in small towns. He covers a host of topics, including the symbols and rituals of small-town life, the roles of formal and informal leaders, the social role of religious congregations, the perception of moral and economic decline, and the myriad ways residents in small towns make sense of their own lives. Wuthnow also tackles difficult issues such as class and race, abortion, homosexuality, and substance abuse. Small-Town America paints a rich panorama of individuals who reside in small communities, finding that, for many people, living in a small town is an important part of self-identity.
