Johnson State






Johnson State is the 18th, and final, college I'll be visiting in Vermont on this trip. I believe I have now seen every traditional residential college in the entire state. Located in the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont, it's a well-kept state school that might be a great fit for students coming out of high school with less than stellar grades.
It also has a working television studio and puts on it's own newscast 5 days a week. For students interested in this field, it's a hands-on program that allows students to easily get involved. Education is it's largest major and the Hospitality & Tourism department is popular. Outdoor Recreation is offered as a major. An interesting option is the Wellness and Alternative Medicine program.
Visual and Performing arts have a major presence around campus. A large percentage play varsity sports here as well. Behind one of the dorms is a hill that students use for skiing and snowboarding in the winter.
