“What a great day to celebrate the amazing partnership we have had for over thirty years with the Bethesda Foundation. This new birthing simulation laboratory will not only impact our students here at Alfred State, but the impact will be felt throughout the southern tier.”

Dr. Steve Mauro

“My professors are super supportive. They are there to help me if I have a problem with anything. If I have trouble getting into an assignment or understanding something they are here to help me through it all and guide me.”

“The sisters really took me in. They joke that I came around and I never left. I knew they had me my back. It was an amazing support system. This is always going to be my home away from home.”

Jenna Plouse

“We have hosted this event with pride for a long time and we will continue to host. Skills USA brings a lot to us. The schools bring us students but more importantly their high school students can see a college for maybe the first time.”

Mike Ronan

"I am incredibly excited about the work that Alfred State is doing to develop these initiatives across our broad range of degree programs, including vocational. Given the challenges facing us in higher education, framing our civic engagement efforts as an integral part of workforce readiness and democratic citizenship is essential.”

Dr. Angela Graves

“It was a great day to interact with these students. The competitors had great ideas and it was interesting to hear them tell the judges what they did and what they learned. All that competed should be proud of their efforts. It is always a special day to host these young scientists on our campus.”

Isaac Klingensmith

“The professors are fun. They really try to make it the best experience for us and make sure that they get the knowledge to us. They make sure we understand and are super willing to help whenever we need extra help with anything.”

Conor Compton

“In our world the most dangerous accidents always seem to be a trench collapse. We have thirty-five seniors taking part in this simulation experience and someday, somewhere one of them is going to have to assist in a rescue attempt."

Brian Adams

 “Our classes are so interactive. We are always spending time together in the studio, and we collaborate on almost everything. We can go from Wellsville town planning and design all the way up to our thesis projects that combine a variety of topics.”

Joanna Musacchio

 “The best part of the program is that you get so much experience. They try to simulate real world situations. The instructors have so much experience. They have answers for pretty much every scenario that me and my classmates have. We are always learning something new.”
