Geneseo is a beautiful school to behold. Geneseo is peaceful, the people are friendly, and warm. Geneseo is a college that will challenge you but make you feel successful and victorious once you have given your all and worked your hardest to overcome whatever obstacles you face.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
Ensure that Geneseo has what you are looking for or need academically, financially and socially. The students can be competitive depending on your major but are always willing to work together to achieve excellence. If you want to be in an environment that is both peaceful as well as lively, then this is a great school to attend. The professors and advisors are great sources, but you have to make the effort and take a little initiative to get their help. Build relationships with faculty, students and staff as soon as you walk on campus. It will help in the long run.
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
At Geneseo, you study and sometimes you don't get the grade that you believe you worked for, thus, encouraging you to work and study even harder. At this school your best means going above and beyond what you think is your best.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
I lived in a dorm, however it was suite style so I did not have to share certain facilities with a lot of students. Nonetheless, from what my friends have experienced, I have come to find that the students in the dorms are very friendly, they leave their doors open so that they can socialize and not seem secluded from everyone else.
Describe the food and dining at your college.
The food has changed over the years, but the food organizations are working to bring more diversity and variety in the types of foods that are made. The campus ensures that they have fat free options, vegetarian and gluten-free options as well. Geneseo tries to cater to everyone's food preference. The dining halls are open relatively late, so if students need a late night snack or meal at 11, they have locations to go to on campus. Starbucks is also a major hit for students, because the environment is quiet and a snack or drink can be purchased in convenience.
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
If students do not have anything planned for the night, on weekends in particular, they can attend the movies, go bowling or participate in various interesting activities that are held by GLK or Geneseo Late Knight. There are dance parties on campus that are of no charge to the students and these parties occur in the Knightspot which is a small club-like venu. There are dinners and shows prepared by the campus cultural clubs as well as dance and music shows in the auditoriums.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus
For those that are old enough to drink, there are three main bars that students attend but the end result of the night is going to the IB. The IB is a bar/club in which many students as well as town dwellers come to dance and hear the latest tunes.
Are you involved in any clubs or activities?
There are over five cultural clubs, several dance clubs, sports and gaming clubs. Joining or a couple of these clubs is a great way to get involved, make friends, build your resume, leadership and enjoy your college experience.
How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?
University Police is always on patrol and when you call them they come in a timely fashion. There are other organizations that are there to aid the University Police if a student is injured or intoxicated.
