What will your story be?

SUNY Broome has many interesting and accomplished students, alumni, faculty and staff. Here are some of their stories.

  • Riley Transue: Behind the Scenes of Healthcare

    By Elisabeth Costanzo Stewart Every day, marketing professionals question the effectiveness of their advertisements. Did the graphic, copy, sound bite, or tv spot successfully compel the viewer to take action? In many cases, ads fall flat, but in a special moment when the content miraculously connects with the customer, attention is grabbed and the power

  • Tiffany Bolt: Manufacturing a Fresh Start

    By Elisabeth Costanzo Stewart Tiffany Bolt has never allowed the fear of “fitting in” to hinder her professionally. While she genuinely understands the hesitation that many women feel as they contemplate entering the male-dominated fields within Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics, Bolt chooses not to fixate on the reality that men heavily outnumber women in

  • Arianna Michitti: The All-American Future Hygienist

    By Elisabeth Costanzo Stewart At the beginning of each fall semester, just over forty students enter SUNY Broome’s highly competitive Dental Hygiene: A.A.S. program. With just over a 10% acceptance rate, these hopeful future hygienists balance excitement and nervousness as they gather collectively for the first time.  Flanked by professors, clinical instructors, and the dental

  • Dani Bryan: Airborne Bound

    By Elisabeth Costanzo Stewart One of Cadet Fourth Class Dani Bryan’s first childhood memories is of the power and beauty of aviation. She distinctly remembers tagging along with her dad to the Binghamton Airshow. Clinging to her noise-canceling headphones, she gazed up at the sky and watched in awe as the Blue Angels skillfully weaved

  • Dep. Emily Zielewicz: Balancing Public Servant and Civilian Life One Day at a Time

    By Elisabeth Costanzo Stewart For Emily Zielewicz, maintaining a distinct balance between her professional life and personal life is a daily activity.  Professionally, Zielewicz wears many hats, most notably the trademark Sheriff’s Stetson.  As a Deputy with the Broome County Sheriff’s Office, Zielewicz ensures the overall welfare of the community members of Broome County. A

  • Alejandro Chavarria Gonzalez: Embracing His College and His Culture

    By Elisabeth Costanzo Stewart You never know when a perfectly worded Google search will pull up a life-changing opportunity. For Engineering Science A.S. student, Alejandro Chavarria Gonzalez, a quick scan of the over 156,000,000 Google results for “scholarships for Hispanic students,” eventually rippled to him being named one of the top Hispanic engineering students in

  • Making Up for Lost Time: Melissa and Megan Carden Thrive As Three-Sport Athletes

    By Elisabeth Costanzo Stewart Like 3.2 million other American seniors who graduated in 2020, Melissa and Megan Carden entered their first year of college full of uncertainty. Their heavily anticipated senior year at Vestal High School came to a crashing halt in March of 2020, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.  “Everyone in our family

  • Move Over Bill Nye, Here Comes Debbie Miller

    By Elisabeth Costanzo Stewart If you were in elementary or middle school during the 90’s or early 00’s, you can easily remember the genuine thrill that you felt at the sight of a television cart being rolled into your classroom. It only took one kid to start the chant, and before you knew it, your

  • Brady Harrington Revisited: From Student to Instructor in Just 4.5 Years

    By Elisabeth Costanzo Stewart When we first featured Brady Harrington in November of 2017, we highlighted the second-year, two-sport student athlete who was enthusiastically exploring the academic and professional opportunities that accompanied SUNY Broome’s then relatively new academic program of Sport Studies. Exactly four and a half years later, Harrington returned to SUNY Broome, not

  • Lessons Learned

    Detours and wrong turns are as much a part of life as they are in driving. For Quentin Pappadakis, the detours faced during his academic journey led him to some unexpected opportunities and new goals. Originally, Quentin attended SBCC with an interest in Criminal Justice.  He hoped to become a member of the Binghamton Police

  • Ethan Roselle: A Voice for the Students

    It’s almost impossible to walk across campus and not bump into Student Assembly President and communications and media arts student, Ethan Roselle. Donning his trademark glasses and a warm, inviting smile, Roselle isn’t shy about greeting fellow students and learning about what he can do to help represent their perspective and voice to the College’s

  • Proving That Women Are Worth Investing In: Ouedraogo Wins Norman R. McConney Jr. Award for EOP Student Excellence

    When Damata Ouedraogo talks to family and friends in her home of Burkina Faso, West Africa, they usually think that she is crazy. They can’t believe that a forty-seven year old, married, mother of four, would be pursuing a college education at her age and stage of life.  “Forty-seven doesn’t mean that I’m dying tomorrow.

  • Eric Arduino: Expanding His Backyard to Include the State of New York and SUNY Broome 

    For the past 75 years, SUNY Broome (or whatever our official title was at the time) has been a household name in the Southern Tier of New York. Much to our dismay, that sadly is not the case as you travel down I-81 S into Northeastern Pennsylvania. Thankfully, our name, reputation for academic excellence, and

  • Logan Paine Honored with 2021 NYS Sheriffs’ Institute Scholarship

    The Spring 2022 semester is going to be full of big things for criminal justice student Logan Paine. In addition to completing the final classes required for her degree, preparing for civil service exams, and beginning her job hunt, she has the added blessing of expecting a baby boy in the last few weeks of

  • Out of All the SUNYs and CUNYs, Yueqi Diao Chose SUNY Broome

    An early morning phone call changed Yueqi Diao’s life. So much so, that she has committed the exact time of the call to memory. “At 6:46 a.m., our phone rang. My mom, who works 60 hours a week, was already at work, so I was the only one home to answer it. It was so
