[quote=Anonymous]Graduate of Union. Yes it is in Schenectady, which is west of Albany in the Capitol District. Yes it is cold but there are no tunnels. It does not get the lake effect snow like Syracuse and Cornell which are further west. Union is small but is interesting Liberal Arts school with a very strong engineering school. Large predominance of kids from NY, NJ, CT and MA with a mix of kids from other states. Hockey team is D1 so going to games can be a big deal. The social life can be limiting. Much of the social life revolves around Fraternities and Sororities. The college has tried to change that by having Minerva houses which have different themes. Each freshman is assigned to a Minerva to bring together different groups. Most of the Frat houses have been taken over to be Minerva's. Lots of community service is encouraged. Schenectady is not a great college town. It is pretty downtrodden as GE as fled the town.[/quote]
