I love the medieval readings in my Medieval World A.D. 400-1500 course taught by Dr. Susan Wade. I would like to graduate in the spring of 2011 and later go on to pursue a Ph.D. in history.”

What Keene State College is
Are you interested in being actively involved in your own education? Are you more of a hands-on learner than a “lecture learner”? You will thrive here.
- Focused on you, the undergraduate student, and your future.
- Large enough for boundless opportunities; small enough to make them happen.
- An academic community that can bring out the best in any student who has the desire to succeed. (More than 30 percent of our students are the first in their family to attend college.)
- Dedicated to preparing you for active citizenship and meaningful work.
- A place where a willing heart and able hands are quickly put to good use.
- A place where people have a passion for global awareness, for sustainable lifestyles, for community and service.
- A good value. You pay to come here for four years. We equip you for the next 40. That’s a promise.
What Keene State is not
(Let’s be honest: We can’t promise everything to everyone. Not everyone will be happy here.)
- Not a large urban university.
- Not a small private college.
