Lots of things to do in the area from hiking to bars and restaurants. Great academic experience as well, most if not all professors want to see you do well and will go out of their way to help you if you ask. That said it’s also very easy to have a personal relationship with them. Many care about your well being outside of the lecture hall as well. Athletics is a great way to get involved if that’s your kind of thing, if not there’s tons of other clubs to join even for different niche type interests. Overall amazing experience, met some of the best people throughout my time at Plattsburgh, do not regret my decision at all to go there!

Needs better professors. The teacher can be a determining factor in whether or not you end up understanding what you’re learning. Some professors are old and need to retire. Also, the dining hall leaves much to be desired. The food sits for hours and is poorly cooked and seasoned. In general, food on campus is sometimes comparable to what one would think of prison food. There are a lot of class options if you look at the total options, however if you want to actually take many of them, even if it says that it is offered in certain semesters, they will sometimes not be offered. For example, Calculus III is supposed to be offered in both the fall and spring, but it is not offered in spring of 2023. The dorm life is average, however there is not enough custodial staff in the building, leaving the bathrooms that are supposed to be thoroughly cleaned every day cleaned mediocre at best. There are red brick paths that melt the snow, but they are often broken and are only on parts of campus.

As a second year student. Plattsburgh has done wonders for my education. The Expeditionary Studies Program is one of the nations best outdoor programs run by some of the world's most qualified people. On top of that, I have added two majors and a minor onto my degree and faculty members are there to help me succeed. For those who enjoy outdoor recreation, SUNY Plattsburgh is a great place to go to because of it's proximity to the Adirondack Mountain Range and the Green Mountains. Plattsburgh is also on Lake Champlain, and only a hour from Montreal. I've heard from city folk that Plattsburgh "has nothing to do" but it does offer great pastimes, they just need to be for you! The last year of my life has been one of the greatest (minus COVID) because of Plattsburgh and how they have given me opportunities that I never thought I'd have whether it be sea kayaking off of the coast of Maine or 800 ft up a cliff.
