The school is very involved in the community it is in. It is hugely involved in helping the refugee population, which is large, and very near by . Buffalo State is also in a very creative, activist, and engaged area of the city. If that is what you are into it is really easy to be involved, and not just involved but see action. We are also in the middle of the Fredrick Law Olmstead Park System, which is gorgeous.

When I tell friends about my school I brag about diversity. There is many young talents from multiple places, whether from the city or upstate. Generally you are surrounded by new people who often share the same ideas or enjoy the same activites you do. My school also has many opprutnites where you can express yourself. Theirs various clubs/organizations so you can never be bord on campus because their's so many different intrests. Overall my school is a community because with so many students who share varied intrests your bound to make a similar companion.

Buffalo State College is very diverse. The amount of students that go to this school who have racial or ethnic backgrounds different from my own is enormous. Buffalo State is a very good college to go to because of the community it is in as well. It is right on Elmwood which makes it easy to find off campus jobs. However, it is also right next to the Buffalo Psychaitric Center, which takes volunteers and internships. There are many other possibilities at Buffalo State to futher your career in numerous ways.

My school is wonderful in general. When I brag about my school, I tell them that this school is like a family. I say family because everyone at Buffalo State makes sure that this feel like the home away from home and that's a big deal for everyone here.

The professors really want to get to know you as both a person and a student. They take the time to engage you in conversations about your life outside of school, and generally care about how you are doing both academically and outside of the classroom. If they know of any potential job openings or volunteer opportunities, they do not hesitate to contact you. The professors are not only focused on giving you a great education, but also on giving you a better chance at finding your dream job after you leave their classroom.

When talking about my school to my friends, I always speak on how diverse my college is. I brag about all the people that I meet on a daily basis. I have met so many people from all over New York State, the United States, Europe, and even as far as Australia. I have made so many new friends from a variety of ethnic backgrounds such as Caribbean, African, Hispanic, and Jewish students to name a few. I even participated in a promotional video highlighting Buffalo States' diversity for the incoming freshman for the 2010 fall semester.

Buffalo State has the best education program in the area. The professors are caring and want you to succeed. The best part about the college though is how small the campus is and how close it is to everything in Buffalo.

I usually brag about how affordable my school is, and what a great education I am recieving while I am here. SUNY Buffalo is the least expensive school around (to NYS residents), and it is one of the most highly recognized for educational excellence.
