Hartwick College Summary
The following paragraph provided courtesy of wikipedia.
Hartwick College is a nationally ranked, non-denominational, private, four-year liberal arts and sciences college located in Oneonta, New York, in the United States. Approximately 86 percent of Hartwick students participate in study abroad programs during their four years at Hartwick, with 198 students participating in study abroad programs in 2002-03. Hartwick College acquired the Pine Lake Environmental Campus in 1971 from the Neunzig family. Pine Lake residence is open to all full-time Hartwick students, and certainly a wide range of interests converge at Pine Lake. The major difference between students living at Pine Lake versus a dorm, is that the Pine Lake residents specifically chose this arrangement away from campus. Reasons for living at Pine Lake vary, but often include: appeal of living in a cabin, living by a lake, being part of a close community, access to hiking trails, and the strong bond between Pine Lake residents. Pine Lake owns a blue Chevy Venture, stickered with the Hartwick College logo and Pine Lake Shuttle, that is seen driving around campus and to/from Pine Lake often. Free to use, Pine Lake offers workstudy to student drivers that are able to drive the van on a regular basis. The shuttle van follows a schedule to/from the Robertson Lodge at Pine Lake and the museum entrance by Upper Yager, with new pick-up times determined each semester to accommodate the most people. Activities are often held at Pine Lake such as Eco-Art Festival, Pine Lake Day, Pot Luck dinners for gallery openings in the Lodge, Solstice parties, Bread and Puppet Theater, Contra Dances, Awakening (the freshmen pre-orientation program), etc. Pine Lake’s facilities are also available to Hartwick College staff, faculty, their families and their guests, as well as public members There is an extensive trail system around the lake and on the northern side of the road, also called the Upper Tract. Trail maps for the Lower Tract were made last summer by GPS by a student living at the Pine Lake campus and are available in the office of the Lodge. Three trails lead up the Upper Tract and end at Mud Lake, a slowly enclosing lake surrounded by a bog. The Pine Lake Environmental Campus is a well-conserved and beautiful tract of land, so many residents, college students, and local community members make good use of the trails. Hartwick College currently has 6 registered Greek Life groups: Fraternities: Alpha Delta Omega, Alpha Sigma Phi, Tau Kappa Epsilon Sororities: Alpha Omicron Pi, Gamma Phi Delta, Phi Sigma Phi A message from the President to all students regarding Greek life: “At the meeting of the Board of Trustees of May 11-13, I discussed with them my concerns about the behavior, and resultingly the future, of the off-campus Greek social organizations recognized by the College.

I graduated in 1970 and went on to seminary in Lancaster, Pa. My time in the Hartwick world was outstanding. While I did not set the academic world on fire, I was involved in the men's basketball program as team manager and traveled with the team. Great opportunity! Loved the soccer games on Sat. The world, even as an independent, was most enjoyable. Good people, great teachers and good living in a nurturing environment for 4 incredible years. Opened my mind and fed me like i didn't know i could be fed.
