What is the best thing about SUNY Oswego?
The best thing about SUNY Oswego is the people on campus. Even thou some people think Oswego is a small campus, everywhere you go there are new and interesting people to meet. From R.A.’s in residents halls, faculty and staff around all the buildings, your classmates, and people you have never met before.

Comment on how your Oswego experience has helped prepare you for a career.
The real world experience I have already gained from being at Oswego is huge. Getting ready to start my own job, live on my own and all the challenges that go along with it. With all the experience I have gained from being the treasure of SIFE and working in the admissions office I am building up the knowledge and experience that employers look for.

What opportunities has Oswego given you that you never had before?
I never was the one that spoke up and asked question or be the leader in an organization. But my time on campus has already changed that as I am the treasure of SIFE and am the mostly likely President to become in a year. This is giving me the confidence and experience I never experienced or put forth in high school.
