College In The Woods Community (CIW)

Here's what some recent incoming students said when we asked them why they chose CIW as their #1 choice for where to live at Binghamton.

I want to live in CIW:

• because I love the thought of being surrounded by woods and living in a community that was built to cut down the fewest trees
• because my friends who lived here told me about this fundraiser where you order hot dogs and cookies for $1 and they're delivered to your room
• because I'm an easy-going, laid back kind a person and I heard that's the vibe at CIW
• because I think Woods Jam, Woodstock, Casino-in-the Woods and the other traditions here sound amazing
• because I couldn't decide what style room or how many roommates I wanted and CIW has lots of options
• because I heard the slushies at the Woods Diner are great
• because some of the reviews I read said the building layout makes each floor seem like its own little community, and I like that
