<p>I’m currently in the Anthropology program, and it’s pretty good. They’re more known for their graduate program though. If you want to pursue anthropology seriously postgraduate, you’ll want to take many classes beyond the basic major requirements. You also need to pick and choose the classes as there are some pretty bad professors. We don’t have much for lingual anthropology, the physical anthropology and archaeology focused classes tend to be more rigorous, and people usually take the ethnology courses for general educations.</p>
<p>As far as commuting goes, we do have a train station on campus so you can live anywhere on the Port Jefferson line near a train station have be able to get there without a car. Your best bet in that regard might be Port Jefferson or maybe Huntington. There are also some houses on or off of Stony Brook Rd. and Rt. 25A.</p>
