Many places to eat and pick up food on the go. They have a program called Cobycash and it can be used in dining and several other listed locations outside the campus. Very convenient.
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
Since Cobleskill is located in the mountains and the weather is usually cold and doused in snow they're many ski resorts. Also many parks to explore, if you are the out doors type. Several barns and stables located near the campus. Small town to do some shopping and errands. The school offers many programs for the students such as events throughout the semesters.
Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?
If you are a New York resident and wish to travel upstate this school is very affordable. They offer financial aid assistance as well.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus
There is a barn across the street from the campus. Many horses, pigs, rabbits and goats.
Which types of students will excel at your college?
If you are majoring in agriculture there is a wonderful program. Also all animal lover students who wish to get a degree involving the study of animals. Great for pre-vet students. I believe there are some computer classes as well.

There are so many clubs and activities for just about anyone. Here is a link with the list of clubs and their description http://www.cobleskill.edu/campus-life/student-life/clubs.asp
