FactsBest Things
- The happy medium between an attentive, small liberal arts college with the resources of a major university
- Everybody stays on campus on the weekends, so during a late-night Slices run, you'll see about half the student body.
- The renowned, highly-published, impressive, and overwhelmingly accessible staff
- The beautiful campus buildings and grounds set in the rolling hills of the Chenango Valley
- The well-balanced academics and parties; Colgate students work hard and play harder
- The tremendous amount of research opportunities and internships for undergraduates. Professors and career services can't seem to stop offering jobs, internships, and research opportunities.
- Class dinners, field trips, and one-on-one attention from professors. We love Merill House, a full-service faculty dining hall often used to host class dinners.
- The wide variety of student organizations and chances for leadership. Because the school is small, students can easily rise to leadership positions.
- Graduation weekend - a torchlight parade of departing seniors, followed by dancing and drinking in the streets of downtown Hamilton.
- The strong and supportive alumni base
Worst Things
- Course registration
- The hit or miss quality of professors—sometimes the class is great, but the professor is horrible; sometimes the professor is great, but the class is horrible; sometimes both.
- The bitterly cold winters
- The lack of diversity
- The housing lottery
- The lack of variety in food options at the main dining halls and in town
- The lack of places to party other than frats, dorms, and bars
- The dying Greek presence
- Having to climb up the hill after partying or parking your car
- The lack of computers at the libraries during midterms and exam weeks
