A Welcome from the President

Dear Student:

I am pleased to welcome you to Binghamton University for the coming academic year. You are part of a talented student body that is known far beyond the campus for its academic excellence, energy and creativity. I am very proud of you and your many achievements.

This Student Handbook is intended to acquaint new students and remind returning students about all that the University has to offer. In these pages, you will see descriptions of the many services and activities available to students. We have also included our Code of Student Conduct for your information. And, in accordance with federal law, you will find a listing of the past year’s crime statistics for campus.

I hope that I will have an opportunity to talk with you sometime during the year. During the semester I schedule open hours in my office, where you don’t need an appointment to drop in and tell me what’s on your mind. I also visit the residential areas and attend student events, so I have opportunities to hear about your experiences at Binghamton.

Again, welcome to Binghamton, and I hope you have a great year.

Sincerely,

C. Peter Magrath
Interim President
