[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Geneseo is as lovely as any campus, anywhere.[/quote]

And you can walk right off campus into a town with cafes and restaurants catering to the college crowd.[/quote]

We actually visited the school last weekend - DD really liked it.  We had lunch in the town and then went hiking at Letchworth which isn't far.[/quote]

It's a gem. Probably the most SLAC-like of the SUNYs. [/quote]

How does in compare to New Paltz? That one is on our list for a child that enjoys music, theater, and liberal arts. Seems like a great size and good location, with a nice town and the possibility of going into NYC on occasion.[/quote]

I think New Paltz would be ideal for your kid. Geneseo is great, but it is kind of remote -- not too far from Rochester, but about 5 hours from NYC.

Yeah, I don’t think remote is good as our child is more of a city person. And weather in Geneseo could be tough too (though Ithaca College is also on the list). We’re looking at SUNY Purchase as well, but I’ve gotten the impression it’s a bit of a suitcase school for liberal arts students (don’t think our child will ultimately pursue a BFA/conservatory program).[/quote]
