It is a small school with a big mission: training the people who design and build ships. In a time when college costs can follow graduates for decades, this place has held onto a tradition of generosity that feels almost old-fashioned.

Port Washington football breaks 50-year drought — and isn’t stopping there

On Friday, Port Washington’s varsity football team won its first playoff game since Gerald Ford was president. The Vikings (7-2) routed Plainview-Old Bethpage 40-0 in the opening round, snapping a postseason drought dating to 1976 and advancing to the Nassau County semifinals. “We’re not satisfied just because we won a game,” senior right tackle Max Eynon, who protects his twin brother, QB Harry Eynon, told The Post. “There’s no surprise on this field, and with this team that we got here. This was the goal, and we’re still going.” Brothers Harry Eynon, left, and Max Eynon stand after varsity football practice at Paul D. Schreiber High School in Port Washington, N.Y., Wednesday, Nov. 11, 2026.

TIME names the top colleges in New York

Columbia University and Cornell University ranked among the nation's best colleges in TIME Magazine's Best Colleges rankings, released last month. TIME partnered with data research firm Statista for its inaugural report of America’s Best Colleges of 2026-2027 , which ranked colleges that "excel at student outcomes, learning environment and attractiveness to students," according to the publication. Schools with historically strong STEM programs ranked high on the list, including the top two universities: Stanford University (No. 1), known for its startup culture and connection to Silicon Valley, and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (No. 2), a patent powerhouse, according to TIME. New York's highest-ranked university, Columbia University in New York City, is best known for its Core Curriculum and strength in the humanities and social sciences, including its graduate programs in journalism, business, law and international affairs, according to Oriel Admissions. Cornell University in Ithaca is known for its focus on engineering, agriculture and life sciences, as well as hotel administration. Although Cornell, like Columbia, is an Ivy League school, some of its colleges are state-supported contract colleges , which offer lower tuition to New York residents. Other Cornell colleges are endowed and rely on private support, according to the university.
