As an alternative to high school for young men interested in agriculture; the State Agricultural and Technology College at Cobleskill opened the doors of its only building to a class of 10 in 1916. It was an experiment at the time; although now it would be part of New York�s BOCES (Board of Cooperative Educational Services) system. Evolving over the years; it was first a postsecondary institute for men and women interested in agriculture; home economics; and teacher training; then it became a junior college offering a multitude of degrees; including not only those listed above but also business and liberal arts; and now; 100 years later; it is a comprehensive college offering baccalaureate as well as associate degrees. Today; the campus covers over 900 acres with 70 buildings.
