union college

Mohawk Harbor in Schenectady has become a beautiful development that includes apartments, condos, restaurants, and many businesses. As the retail spaces fill up, there are still many plans for the area surrounding it. One of those plans may include Union College.

This is not a newsflash. College is expensive. We spent the past twenty years saving for my son to go to college. Student loans have become a political platform. Colleges across America are charging some steep prices for one year of education. Let's see which New York Colleges and Universities are amongst the Top 50 most expensive in America.

As a Division I college administrator for nearly two decades, I know better than to judge a situation based on a press release. Friday, Rick Bennett "resigned" his position as head men's ice hockey coach, effective immediately at Union College. Bennett had been on paid-administrative leave since January 20th, as a result of an allegation.

Here's a tasty little morsel for all you cool kittens and cats to add to your obsession with the Netflix docuseries "Tiger King".  Consider this your quarantine Q and A of the Day.  Carole Baskin's current husband (not to be confused with her first husband she allegedly fed to the tigers) has his college degree from a prominent local college.

One thing on the internet that gets me every time is video of soldiers surprising their families with an unexpected return home and one local soldier that just that at a Union College hockey game.

The Capital Region has some pretty haunted places. Some are haunted because they're historical and some are because something terrible happened there. In the story of this famous Schenectady Stockade ghost, it's both.

You send your kid to college knowing that they're going to learn, make new friends, and have fun. What you may not know is that you may have just sent them to the biggest party school in the Capital Region.

"The Pretenders," filmed locally in 2016, is gearing up for a Fall release.

Every year Princeton Review comes out with the list of the top party schools in the country and every year I look for two things: New York University (my alma mater) and anything local. This year, I was not disappointed.

This is one of those trending things that I think of as too crazy to actually happen in real life until I saw a first-hand story of a Schenectady business owner getting punched randomly in the street near my house.

We see our first president's head all over the place; dollar bills, quarters etc., but this find was head and shoulders above the rest when it was discovered at Union College in Schenectady recently.  Amazingly, strands of hair belonging to George Washington turned up inside a leather-bound almanac from 1793.

The sports equipment garage of local high school, Notre Dame Bishop Gibbons was set on fire and police claim it was intentional. Despite such a horrible event, acts kindness prevailed.
