Around Town

Many clubs and activities on campus. Good sports facilities as well as many things to do around the city of Troy

The college offers several different activities almost everyday. There are many different clubs students can join. There is also a gym on campus that isnopenbto students and the public. The school has many different school sporting events which students can attend regularly. Around the college is shopping of all sorts which everyone loves.

The gym hours are only early hours and you can't use the gym unless they have a class or you go between the set 6 hours. Which is really hard to do if you commute or have classes back to back. After 2pm on campus everyone usually goes home so it's beyond dead and no ones around, the gym isn't open to use and the ice skating ring only has limited hours as well. You can't use the art room or join in anything unless it's your major so there goes anything that you were interested in. Unless you want to go watch a baseball game or football game, which you'd probably be the only ones there that's something there is to do but once again the students will hit on you.

Club meetings seem to all be on Monday at 2 p.m. The Engineering Science Club has been holding a pumpkin chunkin' contest each fall. The school regularly has cultural events and you can also get discounted tickets to Valley Cats games. People just tend to be so busy and used to commuting that they forget to stick around for them.

There are many clubs and sports that you can join at this college. There is a list online.

Lake George, NY is only 1 hour north while Bennington, VT is 45 minutes east. Albany provides varied entertainment opportunities at the Times Union Center, State Museum and shopping malls.

ping pong, Frisbee, attend school events, ice-skating,

There are always activities going on at hvcc. The last I heard there was an ultimate frisbee tournament. If you can't find things to do on campus, you are doing something wrong.

Theres a nice shopping plaza across the street and east greenbush which is right down the road has a ton of things to do. Our student center is also quite nice as well.

Like I said before, get involved. There is no better way to enhance your community college expereince.
