Alfred State College’s culinary arts students and faculty along with the western equestrian team participated in the Cuba Garlic Festival last weekend.

“We continue to accomplish great things here at Alfred State. These rankings illustrate our ability to provide hands-on, in-demand education that prepares our students to build a great future. It’s quite a compliment for a respected outside organization like US News to validate our success at student outcomes, career success, college reputation, and the excellence of our accomplished faculty.”

“In the shop we take what we learn in the classroom and put it all together. We get customer cars, diagnose them, figure out what is wrong, and return to the customers. Lots of live experience.”

“I encourage anyone with these professional skills to join us. Believe me, it is beyond rewarding to see how these students’ lives are changed.
