25 Famous People You Didn’t Know Graduated From Binghamton University

People sometimes think of Binghamton University as a place where students go to prepare for careers in business, science, law, and other demanding fields. That is certainly part of its reputation. Yet the university has also educated actors, comedians, musicians, writers, television personalities, political leaders, and people who helped build major American companies. Some of those names are so familiar that their connection to this SUNY campus in New York’s Southern Tier comes as a surprise.

Best and worst college towns in New York ranked

The town or city surrounding a college can have a major impact on a student's experience, from nightlife and job opportunities to housing costs and transportation options. Student living expenses can exceed $39,000 per year, making affordability an important factor for many students deciding where to attend school. "Picking the right college is crucial, but it’s also important to make sure that the surrounding college town will be a place where you’ll truly love spending your college years," WalletHub analyst Chip Lupo said. "Towns with a low cost of living, plenty of activities and large student populations can make your college experience a lot less stressful and a lot more enjoyable." To identify the nation's best college towns and cities, WalletHub compared 415 U.S. locations across 31 measures of affordability, social opportunities and academic and economic prospects. Here's how New York's college towns and cities ranked. How New York college towns and cities ranked The quality of college towns and cities across New York varies, according to the WalletHub study.

Hochul needs to bite back big time at NY schools chief Betty Rosa’s blackmail bid

State Education Commissioner Betty Rosa is trying to pull off a nasty bit of blackmail; Gov. Kathy Hochul can make her pay for it — and strike a blow for high-quality education at the same time. Rosa this week issued a public “poverty” plea, claiming the state’s multibillion-dollar school system can’t afford to implement her new, hopelessly watered-down standards for high school graduation without a fresh cash bath. It’s classic Albany extortion: Cry broke to milk taxpayers for more dough. Problem is, Hochul is already on record doubting the value of Rosa’s scheme, and even wishing for more power to stop it. Over 100 NYS school officials raked in $300K last year — and 174 made more than Hochul And Rosa (at least rhetorically) just handed her that power: The gov can now use the coming budget negotiations to explicitly defund the transition. The scheme is terrible : Gone is any need to pass the Regents exams that have been the hallmark of a top-notch New York education for over a century; in are meaningless “assessments” and “portfolios” that will make it easier than ever for cynical administrators to graduate kids with utterly worthless diplomas. Empire State taxpayers already cough
