Sleepy town in upstate New York only going ons are the occasional college party, meth lab busts, or walking around the mall. For fun many teenage residents go to Montreal to drink or walk the streets of the "Burgh" for hours loathing their own existence. Due to the crippling bored found here drug use and alcoholism of all those who are above the age of 12 is very high and considered the favorite pastime of the city. Also winters are cold the weather men are treated like gods and there is a hatred of all things french canadian that can only be compared to south's hatred of freed slaves after reconstruction.
I need to get out of Plattsburgh.

A town in extreme upstate New York that is pretty much the only place for activity in that whole area. Very cold in the winter.
I went up north towards Quebec; all of interest along the way was in the city of Plattsburgh.

A wonderful little town in picturesque northern NY. In the late 70s to early 80s known as the number one place to find the first exploded USSR nuclear warhead. Plattsburgh is now, as then, known to be a very safe and pleasant town. Bordered on the east by the sixth great lake, Lake Champlain, and on the west and south by the Adirondack mountains, Plattsburgh boasts both water sports and skiing within the range of a motorcycle's reserve fuel. All in all, a great city to raise a family.
"I pine for the days when a 10 year old kid could ride his bike to school without the fear of someone kidnapping him. Those days are gone."
"Dude, that still exists in Plattsburgh."

let's just say that without the college, there wouldn't be a city. the winters are long, freezing and full of parking bans. the city cops pretend like they are nypd. they pull over everyone and anyone and treat them like they are some kind of drug dealer wanted in 20 states...i mean after all, they were going 33 in a 30. The summer brings out all the local townies and farmers, and they dress for the occasion! They all head down to the super walmart for some fun.
If you must go to Plattsburgh, bring a camera..you may be lucky enough to see Champ, the sea monster of Lake Champlain..dun dun duuuun!

State University of New York at Plattsburgh was once known as a sub-par institution. From 1971-2005, a person pretty much needed a #2 pencil to get in.
Due to the rapid influx of Gen Y freshman tied with the 2008 recession, the admissions office started getting strict (like all SUNYs) in their selection process, and the overall campus community started to mature.
An accounting professor who once taught at the prestigious Wharton School of Business came to Plattsburgh State in 2009 for a trial semester. He stayed because, "the students are hungrier for knowledge". (Note: The business school is AACSB accredited)
Thus some time between 2003 and 2007 the last gasp of morons started to graduate (or drop out) and Plattsburgh found itself as a premiere institution.
So if you're looking for social diversity and well-rounded business, communications, nursing and education programs. You'll get it at SUNY Plattsburgh.
Thankfully there are no more people on campus like the author of Plattsburgh State University, so ignore the school's old reputation. I did, and now I have a great job
I heard SUNY Plattsburgh sucked academically.
You're right, it did suck. But it no longer does suck.

Where the biddies are boppin' and the playas get poonan all day. Formally known as P BURGH .. some may even go as far as to call it Plattsvegas, either name will suffice. Everyday is a party and whether you are invited is up to you. Beers Blunts and Bongs are around every corner. If you go here and havent smoked a fatty behind Wilson .. you havent lived.
Parties at frats are sketchy but theres no place to sketch around like the Burgh. Brink, Couch, Helen, South Catherine, and Broad are the names of the streets that will hold your finest party memories .. or lack there of.
fucken rage burgh style, i dare you
I was so fucked up last night .. only at SUNY Plattsburgh
