Campus Life

Our dinning hall, called the Commons, is small in relation to the small campus. The staff that work there are very nice and polite. The food is fairly good. You just have to be creative when eating there. I recommend getting the unlimited food plan the first year to sort of test the food. The mac and cheese and chicken nugget days are my favorite! But if you prefer to cook, most resident halls have a kitchen.

The food is great. They have a few different options that allow for a variety of foods.

Cafeteria food is decent but knowing how to cook is always a good life skill. There is a convenient cafe on campus which serves hot and cold foods, in addition to selling groceries and basic necessities.

If there is something in the Commons that you want all you have to do is ask the chef, he will either prepare it right there for you or have it the next day as a feature meal.

There are two places that you can eat at on campus. The dining hall and the Table Rock cafe, the latter stays open until midnight. In the cafe they have an omelet bar, vegan bar, grill bar,etc. So tons of choices for picky eaters like myself. There are also plenty of affordable places to eat in town. Most of those businesses are locally owned but Oneonta also has your Taco Bell, Mcdonalds,etc.

The food and dining on campus and off campus are excellent. On camps there are two places to eat, the commons and Table Rock, and both have excellent options for everyone. There are vegetarian and vegan options, as well as food options for people with allergies and intolerance's. You can always mix and match what is given and make your own dinner as well. The food is of a high quality and available whenever you need it during a reasonable time of day.

Food in the dining hall seemed rather limited, but it seems do able, better than Ramen every night! Also, Table Rock sounds like it balances the dining hall out pretty well with options...so it doesn't seem so bad.

The commons generally appeals to all kinds of tastes in food. There is always an omelet station, fries, soups, salad bar, sandwich bar, and pizza/pasta station. Sometimes, the commons produces the same foods throughout the month, and the students can get sick of it, but generally it is decent. We also have Table Rock, and they offer alternative meals. The only thing is the dining hall hours can be inconvenient, especially if you play a sport.

The plus of a small school is that they can cater to everyone's needs more often. Vegan, vegitarian, or allergies... you name it and they'll help you out.

The commons is a very diverse dining hall. They have everything from eggs to pastas to pizza to meats and even vegetarian menu items. We also have Table Rock cafe, which is absolutely delicious. There are many well known restaurants around in Oneonta, and even some that you wouldn't know of, but should definitely try.

There are 3 sorrorities and 2 fraternities recognized.

Greek Life is a strong connection to the world. Brother/Sisterhoods create a friendship and opporotunities for the future.

There are several different Fraternities and Sororities on campus, including: Alpha Sigma Tau, Alpha Omnicron Pi, Phi Sigma Phi, Gamma Phi Delta, and others. They are a great group of students!

Most of them are drunks.

most are douchebags

there are a few fraternities and sororities at hartwick. i do not have much experience with the greek life, but i do know that hartwick approved fraternities and sororities do not haze their pledges.

A decent amount students on campus are involved in Greek Life. There are two recognized fraternities and three sororities. Students can rush for either their second semester at school, assuming that they have the grades to participate. Many of the Greek life organizations participate in a lot of community service activities and give Hartwick a great name.
