Alfred University
Alfred University was a progressive bastion of learning from the start. A private university in Western New York, the small non-sectarian school serves about 2,400 students. Its academic programs range from the liberal arts and sciences to engineering, business, and art and design, with degrees from a bachelor's to a Ph.D. The school also houses the New York State College of Ceramics. The student-faculty ratio is 12-to-1. The university was founded as the Select School in 1836, providing a coeducational environment from the school's beginnings. Alfred University (and the village it's in) is named for Alfred the Great, ninth-century ruler of southern England. Its mascot is, of course, the Saxons.
