SUNY New Paltz

SUNY colleges and universities across New York State are celebrating this month after having something happen to them that hasn't happened in 15 years.

The annual release of the U.S. News & World Report's list of the best colleges in America has revealed outstanding performance by institutions in Upstate NY.

Here's a burning question for you...if you found $40,000 in a couch you had picked up at a yard sale or the Salvation Army, what would you do with the money?  That question is based on a real life situation that three SUNY New Paltz students found themselves in recently according to WABC.
