Student & Faculty Success

“I am extremely honored to receive this award. Growing up I was always taught to be a good person and try to help others. Wanting to do good for yourself is great but wanting to do things for other people is what I truly feel is the definition of a decent person.” 

Jacob Robinson

“We are here today to learn about volunteerism and civic engagement and the importance of it. Giving up your time and your talent is the most precious thing that you can ever give. To see so many of you here today living that makes my heart happy.”

Dr. Steve Mauro

“It is all slowly shaping together. As this progresses it is truly remarkable how much we've done. We've done so many different things and it's turning into a whole new place.”

Preston Bilotta

“My favorite part of the experience was working with the guys and experiencing a different side of sports. I was thrown into the fire and had to act quickly in many different situations for the first time. I learned about what goes on behind the scenes and had opportunities to collaborate with the local high school choir, Dansville Special Olympics, and many local businesses.”

Jenna George

"We know our students are looking for ways to relax and unwind when they aren’t in class. This course will provide great opportunities for a different type of exercise along with some amazing views of the valley.”

Brooke Scianna

“As a long-time employee of the college, I am honored and excited to continue the important work of serving our students and the campus community in this new role. I look forward to being afforded the opportunity to explore and lead initiatives that will improve the student experience, support their academic success, and increase student retention.”

“Dr. Jacobs was instrumental in our campus-wide effort to present how Alfred State has a strong financial and strategic focus for educational and operational excellence. By inviting her to present, I believe MSCHE recognizes how Bridget is one of our star players on the ASC team to show what the college does and how we do it.” 

Dr Steve Mauro

“Without the Alfred State EOP students, we would not have had the capacity to help so many residents in dire need. When demolishing water-damaged walls and floors, hauling debris, and even “mucking flood mud,” the students did so with energy, enthusiasm, and care.”

“I remember when I first got here all I wanted to do was pass my classes and leave. I wanted to fly under the radar and chill. I realized nothing good comes without change. All my friends and experiences on campus have proven that. I would encourage you to embrace change, instead of fearing it.” 

Isaiah Dempson

 “As part of our Professional Development Week we try to avail our faculty opportunities to learn more about our students and where they are coming from. The simulation allowed our faculty to participate and understand better what some of our students’ lives may be like outside of college and it gives us opportunity to have conversations in the classroom.”
