SUNY at Fredonia

From Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia

The State University of New York at Fredonia (also known as SUNY Fredonia or Fredonia State) is a four-year liberal arts college located in Fredonia, New York; it is a constituent college of the State University of New York. The college's motto is "Where Success is a Tradition."

SUNY Fredonia was one of the state teachers' colleges traditionally specializing in music education, but now offers a large number of programs in many areas. The most popular areas include Communication, Music, Education, and programs of the Social Sciences. There are 82 majors and 41 minors.

The SUNY Fredonia campus, located in Chautauqua County (southwest of Buffalo) was designed by prominent architects I.M. Pei and Henry N. Cobb in 1968.

History

Fredonia Academy (1826-1867)

Originally opened in 1826 as Fredonia Academy under its first principal Austin Smith, the Academy enrolled eight students. The first classes began on October 4, 1826. Within one year the Academy had 136 students, 81 boys and 55 girls.

The Academy reached peak enrollment in 1856 with 217 students. Nevertheless, the school was plagued by financial shortages, and was forced to close its doors in 1867.

Normal School (1867-1948)

In 1867, the college emerged in its second phase of existence as a New York State Normal School. On December 2, 1867, the Normal (as it became commonly known) began classes with 147 students, 62 boys and 85 girls. For students preparing to be teachers, no tuition was charged, books were supplied, and travel costs were reimbursed; in return, students had to promise to teach after graduation. Those students not studying for the teaching profession paid tuition and provided their own textbooks. During its 82 years of existence, Fredonia Normal had a tumultuous existence. With a fluctuating student enrollment and threats of state funding reductions, the school seemed to be in constant jeopardy of closing.

Nonetheless, gradually the school was upgraded. In 1930, of land west of Central Avenue in the Village of Fredonia were bought with the dream that one day it would become a campus. In 1938 a music building was constructed on the Central Avenue site. New York State Governor Herbert Lehman signed the Feinberg Law in 1942 that changed the Normal Schools into Teacher Colleges.

Question: anybody know anything about suny fredonia?

i live far from the school (not a ny resident) and applied and was accepted to fredonia. i was drawn to the school simply by the major program offered for my major (i'm a music student) because i heard very good things. it's tough getting there for a tour and such because of the horrible weather and the distance right now, so i was wondering if anybody knows anything about it? what is the campus like? how about the dorms? what is there to do at night? i know fredonia isn't the most built up place... and how is the music program? thanks!

Best Answer

The music program is excellent, and many of the professors in that department are world class performers in their vocal or instrumental area. It's a small school, which means that you get a lot of personal attention -- not mass lectures with hundreds of students. The campus is modern and very clean, and well-cared for. The winter weather can be exciting, and it can get to be a drag, but honestly you can get to any spot on campus in less than ten minutes, and many of the buildings have covered passageways so you don't even have to get wet. The snow is fun too; there's a popular sledding hill on the edge of campus and spontaneous snow sculptures often appear after a great snowfall. I don't know much about the dorms, but they are constantly upgrading them, and recently added new dining areas, bookstore and coffee shop that have been popular. Downtown in the village is about ten minute walk, and there are shuttle buses for other shopping areas, but it's pretty limited. There are buses to Buffalo airport too, if you will need to fly home for breaks. Plenty to do with sports, music, theater, films, poetry readings, lots of campus clubs, events, and organizations. It's a friendly place and generally both you and your possessions are safe (though of course not making ridiculous choices is important anywhere you live.) If you like people, you won't have any trouble making friends and feeling at home and involved.

Question: suny fredonia? opinions of students/former students?

i don't go to Fredonia but i did visit the campus this summer and in my opinion i think it is the nicest campus that i have visited, and yes the dorms are nice (they aren't huge but there not too small)...to be accepted you need like an 85-90 average and an 1100 at least on your SATs. i hope my response was helpful to you =]
