Question about Community Development?
Ask Ellsworth!
"Whenever two people meet, there are really six people
present. There are the people as they see themselves,
person as the other person sees them, and each person
as they really are."
William James

Off-Campus Student Services works closely with other college offices and community organizations to provide information, resources, advice, and support for students living off campus or considering such a move, and become more informed regarding the ins and outs of living successfully as local renters and resident.
The College at Brockport has six nationally recognized fraternities and sororities. The College affirms that social fraternities and sororities can have a positive impact on the educational and social experience of their membership and the campus community.
