“Instilling a strong sense of civic engagement in students is a central tenet of an Alfred State education,” said Interim Vice President of Student Affairs and Chief of Police Greg Sammons, noting that Alfred students also responded with a similar relief effort last year in Binghamton following Hurricane Irene. “When there’s a community need, our students are ready, willing, and able to get the job done.”
