College in the Woods:
College in the Woods is one of the five
residential communities at Binghamton University. This community is
known as one of the friendliest communities on the Binghamton
Campus because of the people that reside here, and the events that
the CIW Council implements. Some of theses events are Woods
Olympics, Woods Jam, Casino in the Woods, Woodstock, and Co-Rec
Football.
Woods Olympics
In what could be described as a
photo finish, Mohawk got its first win in Woods Olympics history
this year, narrowly defeating Oneida, followed by Onondaga, Seneca
and the champion from the prior year, Cayuga.
Woods Jam
This is concert that entertains students across campus. Bands will
audition to participate. The resulting show is outstanding! The
selected groups put on a highly professional event hosted by
students in November.
Casino-In-The-Woods
We bring genuine
Atlantic City gambling right to your dining hall. Hosted by the CIW
Council, this casino is one you'll never forget. There is
blackjack, roulette, dice games, and more. We have the best food in
town and the students come dressed to impress. They play, enjoy
theme decorations, listen to live music, and win! Students can
volunteer to help with the many facets of this huge event. We start
planning early. Casino proceeds help charitable organizations and
the experience keeps former Woods residents coming back again and
again.
Woodstock
Held towards the end of the spring
semester, Woodstock is a full day of outdoor bands, free munchies,
barbeque and fun for all. Start out by listening to a few local
bands made up of your classmates, move on to some great food, and
finish up the day jousting your friends in a blow-up
arena.
Co-Rec
Co-Rec football is a Binghamton University
tradition, originally founded in Hinman College. Every Fall, a
Co-Rec season begins in which each building forms a team and on the
weekends, rain or shine, steps out onto the co-rec field for a game
against a neighboring residence hall. A Typical 10 week season is
usually followed by a two week playoff season in which a Co-Rec
champion is crowned.
The rules are simple: There are six
players to a team: Three male and three female. The quarterback
must be a female, however, which changes the dynamics of the game.
There are two twelve minute halves, but the clock stops at the end
of the play, which usually stretches the game out to about an hour.
The winner at the end of the game moves up in the rankings.
