Originally I was worried about the size ofBrightOther
Originally I was worried about the size of the school at first, with an undergrad body of 1200. Within in a few weeks of being up at school I was seeing familiar faces all around campus. The way that residential life has set up five different communities makes the school seem a lot smaller than it really is. I think it is the perfect size for me- if I want to see someone they're never more than ten minutes away, but if I don't want to see someone campus is big enough that we won't run into each other. While the city of Binghamton is not the best place to hang out during the day time, there is always something to do at night.

Question
Bing is a great place.Quite BrightEnglish
Bing is a great place. The people here are incredibly nice and friendly. There is not a single pretentious snob. Really. The classes are challenging, and despite what some have said, there are MANY creative options. Ive taken entertainment marketing, stand up class, post 1968 film, and playwriting and im only a sophomore. This is a REAL school. Very real. You will get a REAL degree. If you are looking for culture, this isnt for you. In addition, there are not enough clubs. If you can deal with these two facts, Bing really is a great, progressive undergrad experience.

Question
I love Binghamton University.BrightPolitical Science
I love Binghamton University. I am a transfer to Binghamton and it really is what you make of it.If you anti-social your not going to love it here. If your spoil and why me your not going to like it here. If you expect to be spoon fed and forgot that your in college now its time to be an adult your not going to love it. Binghamton has a tremendous reputation and it opens many doors for people. Diversity is big on campus but people tend to cliq together but thats how world is sometimes. Binghamton is what you make and want. I love it here and believe people that hate it here expect to be spoon fed.
