I think SUNY Potsdam is a very good school because of the opportunities you have here. Not only was the food rated number one in the SUNY system, but there's a plenty of chances for first-class entertainment from the Crane School of Music, along with various clubs and activities going on around campus. It's so easy to feel involved and get into something, which is just as important as the learning aspect of college life.
Do you have any tips for prospective students?
I'd definitely say be prepared for the cold weather. It gets mighty chilly up here, and you'll definitely need the extra layers.
Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?
I would say that it's not stiflingly hard, and in some cases it's a bit easy, but it all depends on the professor and type of class. Personally, being in Crane, there is a certain standard you have to meet that's not super challenging, but it's not something you can breeze through.
Describe the dorm life at your college.
Dorm life is average. Some of the rooms are nicer than others, but I know they're going to be redoing a lot of campus, so that will probably change in the coming years.
Describe the food and dining at your college.
The food is great. There are so many options, and it's all readily available. We were rated number one in the SUNY system!
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
There's always some kind of show, or concert, or activity that's planned. A lot of the clubs do social events, along with the Greek life events. There are also intramural sports. There's plenty of things to do.
