Binghamton University is a prestigious school with an amazing neuroscience program.
There is a lack of professors in almost every single department due to the mandates, however, each class is set up for the student to succeed. There is no social life whatsoever. The biology department is over flood with students so they make many mistakes, and the students suffer.

A very large university, active social life, and plenty of extracurricular activities. Good academics, and mediocre food.
Dining hall experience, cost of housing, quality of the local area.
4.0
What I like most about Binghamton is the wide variety of clubs and organizations to choose from. There are hundreds of clubs to join and so many types of people!
The dining hall can have weird hours at the beginning and end of the semester, and there are a few Residential Communities that do not have air conditioning.
