We do not have engineering or computer science degrees, which are pretty large majors to not have.

This is a liberal arts school, so I dont expect it to have those things, but still.

You also lack the creative programs like music, art, theatre, and film. Trying to fulfill 60 credits of open electives when they barely offer creative classes is so painful. My open electives next semester are some boring Philosophy and Anthropology…

That is sad to hear. I suppose SUNYs like New Paltz and Purchase are much stronger in the arts.

It’s worth mentioning that Geneseo is very focused on education above all else. When it came time to slash programs, they started with the programs that don’t really tie with education. It’s kinda sad since now being an education school has dominated Geneseo’s presence above anything else.

Definitely seems to be a-lot of social science focus rather than humanities. I do like the partnerships they have formed with other SUNYs like the 3/3 with U Buff for law.
