No experience with SB, but we know a couple kids who graduated h.s. last year and are loving their time at Albany. If you are concerned about noise/partying (which I think is pretty much everywhere to some extent), most schools offer the option of substance-free and/or quiet hours halls. I would imagine it’s not difficult to catch a bus/Amtrack to the city for an occasional get-away. We toured there, but didn’t go into a dorm room, so can’t comment other than at my advanced age they all look pretty small!
