Centenary is located in a suburban setting in Warren County, New Jersey, in the Kittatinny Mountains, about an hour's drive west from New York City and east of the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area.

The College developed a Master Development Plan for the Hackettstown campus to address the needs for students and provide a cultural resource for the surrounding northwest New Jersey region. The Master Development Plan also calls for additional classrooms, Lackland Student Center, a renovated and expanded Reeves Recreation Center, improved pathways, and more parking.

In May 2010, the college made national headlines when valedictorian Emily Hawley proposed to her longtime boyfriend Josh Walker during her valedictory address. The couple were featured on several news outlets, including the CBS Morning Show.

Famous quotes containing the word general:

    In communist society, where nobody has one exclusive sphere of activity but each can become accomplished in any branch he wishes, society regulates the general production and thus makes it possible for me to do one thing today and another tomorrow, to hunt in the morning, fish in the afternoon, rear cattle in the evening, criticize after dinner, just as I have a mind, without ever becoming hunter, fisherman, shepherd or critic.
    Karl Marx (1818–1883)

    A general is just as good or just as bad as the troops under his command make him.
    Douglas MacArthur (1880–1964)

    The tremendous outflow of intellectuals that formed such a prominent part of the general exodus from Soviet Russia in the first years of the Bolshevist Revolution seems today like the wanderings of some mythical tribe whose bird-signs and moon-signs I now retrieve from the desert dust.
    Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
