Lafayette College is a private liberal arts college located in Easton, Pennsylvania, United States.

Located on College Hill in Easton, the campus is situated in the Lehigh Valley, about west of New York City and north of Philadelphia.

The student body, consisting entirely of undergraduates, comes from 46 U.S. states and Territories and 48 countries.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Lafayette at a Glance )〕 Students at Lafayette are involved in over 250 clubs and organizations including athletics, fraternities and sororities, special interest groups, community service clubs and honor societies.
