Does Binghamton have a good Creative Writing program?

Hey all. I’ve been accepted to Binghamton, and am interested in their English major with a concentration in Creative Writing. I was wondering if anyone can speak to the rigor/quality of the concentration, since online there isn’t really a course guide, and from the little and my parents and I can find it seems like the courses are really nonspecific? Like it will say Introduction to Creative Writing and then the course description says “students learn the basics of Creative Writing” with no elaboration on what that actually entails. Between these vague titles with sparse descriptions, the large classes (the site says 25-45 students), and the PHD students/TAs teaching when the classes break into smaller groups, I’m questioning if the program is right for me. Thanks so much!
