The faculty is good, but they have terrible academic advisement.

The food service is TERRIBLE. They have no intention of getting better on their own merit. Students have had to corner them to improve.

Administration has no idea what goes on in the school. They don't know their own school. The president of the college needs to retire and go away. Stanley Cohen is what sets this institution back. He has prohibited rock concerts, hip hop concerts, and proper means of advertisting of student acticties through out the school. There has been many other things that have been prohibited.

The dorms are great! But the rules make it fee like prison. The visting rules suck! All your guest has to be out of the building by 12am. It took them forever to allow people to just hang out in the lounge after midnight. You can only have 10 overnights a semester. Meaning only 10 sleep overs. Their solutions for certain problems on campus are very radical. The solution for roomate comflicts on having a "third roomate" was to have your roomate approve your overnight guest, and go to the res life office and have them approve your overnight and you have to give them all your guest information. Where they live and their phone number. What is that about?

And it's a dry campus, which makes it even more like a jail.

This school doesn't care about the students. And if you're going to live here, it's exactly like prison.

This may be a little outdated. Academic advisors, you can change should you not feel satisfied with your current one. Advertising through the school is easy, but you just can't be the person going out posting fliers without any permission whatsoever, and they do have hip hop and rock concerts. Visitation rules are for safety of the students within dorms, so that people are not snuck into buildings and possibly damaging them, seeing as though students are liable for damages done within their building. Overnight guests limits are you can only have the same person over twice a week (otherwise it would just end up seeming that they are living within the dorms for free). Getting the information about a guest is also for liability. One student had brought a guest, of whom did not attend the school, that ended up sneaking in narcotics, and smashing furniture. If it wasn't for having their contact information, who would they hold reliable for replacing the furniture? Having a "third room mate" is not possible just due to room size and fire codes, and room mate conflicts should be brought up to the Area Directors to be resolved. Also, dry campuses are common, especially when you live in the same hall as people under 21, and letting them drink is 100% illegal in New York. Whether they do or not is their own thing.
