Mostly as a response to the OP, and keying off this response.
 
I am admittedly 20+ years out of the loop, but the SUNY system seemed pretty good to me  back in the late 80's.  I am a Fredonia grad ('85 Chemistry), and my education was top-notch.  Really, there is not a whole lot of difference between schools when you are learning regular stuff, and are not either in a specialized program (like Newhouse) or are an ultra-top-tier MIT/Stanford type.  At Fredonia, I got a great perspective from a mixture of academics and folks who had been in industry then gone back to academia.  Classes were small, you could walk into the profs' offices at any moment for help, and the profs used to come to our parties with beer in tow.  I wouldn't trade that time and learning for anything at any other school.
 
My best friend (also a Fredonia grad) took his Ph.D. in mathematics from Binghamton as well.  Started at Syracuse and transferred out, hated the math department there.
