Mountainview College may be Binghamton's newest community, but in just a few short years traditions as strong as any on campus have taken hold.
Mountainview kicks off every year with a weekend sporting and spirit competition between the four buildings on top of the hill to find out which one has what it takes to be King of the Mountain.
As spring breaks across Binghamton, thousands of yellow spotted salamanders emerge from the woods in Binghamton's nature preserve beside Mountainview and cross the connector road for the pond below. It's also the time that Mountainview residents emerge from their halls, shake off winter's doldrums and compete in a weeklong series of events to see who's the most spirited.
Each fall, students participate in the Charity Date Auction to raise money for the Make-A-Wish Foundation.
Appalachian dining hall is transformed for an evening where everyone is dressed to the nines.
There are many ways to celebrate your graduation from Binghamton University, including commencement ceremonies for your class and for your school, but we think that the most meaningful ceremony you can attend is ours. At the Mountainview Recognition Ceremony, your accomplishments can be trumpeted up close and personally for your family and friends to see and hear; they'll understand why Mountainview was so important to you through your years at Binghamton, and they'll certainly see why you were so important to Mountainview.
