IT COULD JUST BE THE BEST PUBLIC COLLEGE YOU'VE NEVER HEARD OF, WITH PRICES SO low that it's a steal even for out-of-state students. SUNY Geneseo, a small liberal arts college in western New York, boasts top students, a scenic campus, strong programs in both arts and sciences, and new dorms with--drumroll, please--washers and dryers on every floor. It adjoins a historic village with killer quaintness and puts students within 30 miles of Rochester, a major college town. What's missing at Geneseo? Arguably, only the buzz that impels some parents to pay two or even three times as much for the same features at a private college.
That's good news ...
