Uraian Tempat

Binghamton University opened its doors as Triple Cities College in 1946 to serve the needs of local veterans returning from service in World War II. Originally located in Endicott, five miles west of the present campus, the fledgling school was a branch of Syracuse University. Four years later, when the college was incorporated into the State University of New York, it was renamed Harpur College in honor of Robert Harpur, a Colonial teacher, patriot and pioneer, who devoted his later years to settling the area around Binghamton. Until 1953, Harpur College was one of only two public liberal arts colleges in the state. In 1961, the campus was moved across the Susquehanna River to Vestal. Growing enrollment and a reputation for excellence soon led to the selection of Harpur College as one of four doctorate-granting University Centers in the state system. In 1965, the campus was formally designated the State University of New York at Binghamton. Binghamton University was adopted as the informal name in 1992.

They also offer special living options such as Chemical-Free and Break Housing. Newing College and Dickinson Community are arranged in traditional corridors with rooms on either side or a bathroom shared by all residents of the corridor.

Some designed triples and quads have a private entrance from outside of the building and their own bathrooms.

Susquehanna Community is open during the summer for those residing in the community during the academic year.
