Greek Life
only about 20% of Hamilton students choose to participate in Greek life. Those who choose to join societies love them, but Greek life is certainly NOT the center of social life at Hamilton.

Parking at Hamilton
The college has started a new parking system this year that will allow students to park their cars in any student lot. Student lots are located all over campus and your car will certainly be convenient to use when needed.

Clinton
The town of clinton may not be a huge city, but there are still lots of fun events! Every Thursday in the fall and spring there is a local farmer's market on the green and numerous music and craft festivals throughout the year. Students frequently drive, walk, or bike down to Clinton to get coffee, go out to eat at the Indian Cafe or Nola's, or grocery shopping at Hannafords.

Yumm
There are tons of great places to go out to eat or order in from in Clinton (<5 min) and New Hartford (15 min). Students love the delicious and affordable Indian Cafe, Nola's Restaurant, China Sea, and Lil' Tex Mex which are all located in Clinton. Students also frequent a number of pizza places and Dunkin' Donut's.

Go Blue!
As a student athlete I cannot say enough great things about the athletics at Hamilton. My teammates are some of my closest friends and everyone come out t cheer for games. Athletic events are a huge part of the social scene at hamilton.

Work Hard, Play Hard.
Students at Hamilton are hard-working, motivated, and focused during the week, but also enjoy kicking back and relaxing during the weekend. The professors at Hamilton are exceptional and always willing to go the extra mile. Classes are engaging and exciting!

Surprisingly Diverse
At Hamilton I have meet so many people from different background and outlooks on life. It is great to be in a place that allows me to learn almost as much from my class mates as my professors.

Unique
I don't think there is a way to characterize Hamilton students. I think that in general the student body is active, easy-going, motivated, and enthusiastic.

Tons to Do!
There are always so many different things to do on campus. From neon dance parties to live concerts to quiet movie nights students never have trouble finding things to do on the weekends!

Not Too Big
Like at any college a drug scene does exist at Hamilton, but its not really that big of a part of student life.
