Lobbying for Student Aid

NYIT students joined 900 high school and college students, faculty, and staff representing more than 60 college and university groups from across New York State at the Student Aid Alliance Advocacy Day in Albany, N.Y. On Feb. 7, 2012, students shared stories about the value of state student aid programs. Participants also attended 13 advocacy seminars and met with elected officials to discuss funding for the Tuition Assistance Program (TAP) and Arthur O. Eve Higher Education Opportunity Program (HEOP). With families continuing to face economic stress, the students thanked state legislators for their historic support of student aid.

During the Student and Alumni Speak Out event, three HEOP students shared how HEOP and NYIT gave them an opportunity to make their college dreams a reality. The students included Ramon Valentin and Juan Alcantara, both juniors majoring in computer science, and Nahima Hoque, a recent NYIT alumna with a bachelor’s degree in life science/biology.

Mark your calendar for next year’s Student Lobby Day on Tuesday, Feb. 12, 2013. A special thank you to Megan Livingston, director of student activities and leadership development; Jeremy Ducos, assistant director; and Michael Schneider, director of counseling and wellness, for their time and efforts in planning and participating in Student Lobby Day.

Fulfilling the Mission

Fulfilling_The_Mission

An important part of the mission and purpose of Chi Alpha Epsilon National Honor Society is to “promote academic excellence in others and to help those who genuinely aspire to the same goals.” With this mission in mind, members of XAE worked with Rick Bonacorsi, Director of the Community Service Center to develop a relationship with local high school seniors who could benefit from the mentoring of successful college students.  

On Friday, October 21, 2011, members of XAE along with Deepa Bhalla, HEOP Director, Vanderie Vielie, HEOP Counselor, and Rick Bonacorsi, took a trip to the High School of Arts and Technology.   XAE members Katherine Javier-Aguilar, Ting Ting Mei, Jissela Murillo, Emmanuel Sanchez, and Ramon Valentin stood before a crowd of 75 high school seniors answering questions about their majors, career goals, and getting into college.  The seniors were extremely engaged and had many questions about NYIT and HEOP.  Afterwards several students said how the members of XAE “reminded them of themselves” some coming from the same neighborhood, or having similar backgrounds.   Several of the high school students were so interested by the discussion that they attended the NYIT Manhattan Campus Open House held the following Sunday.   This visit to the High School of Arts and Technology will be the first of many. 

The members of XAE plan to return to the high school on a monthly basis to give students guidance with the college application process.  These visits will include discussions on TAP, FAFSA, applying for scholarships, writing college application essays , what to expect in college, and many other helpful topics.  The next visit will take place on Friday, November 18th.

Off to a Walking Start!

The members of the newly formed Chi Alpha Epsilon (XAE) National Honor Society hit the ground running this semester, or should I say walking?  After settling into the fall semester and electing their Executive Board, the members of XAE decided to take part in the Making Strides Walk Against Breast Cancer, which was held on October 16th in Central Park.  In only 5 short days the members of XAE raised over $200 to help The American Cancer Society in the fight against breast cancer. XAE members and other NYIT students woke up in the wee hours of a chilly Sunday morning to join the crowds of thousands walking in the fight against breast cancer.  Several hours and many sore feet later, the members of Chi Alpha Epsilon crossed the finish line, proudly completing their first community service project.  A special thanks to all who walked and those who contributed to the fundraising efforts.
