I often overlook the little blurbs of speech, but happened to read this one. I was pleasantly surprised at the lack of statistical jargon, and even more surprised that my statistics textbook got me thinking deeply about life. The quote was…

This spring break I am lucky enough to be able to travel to Ireland. It is incredible to experience a different culture’s customs. One thing I have picked up on is the partnership between community members, and where superior institutions intervene.

Academic partnerships do form a type of community, but there is a different sense of…[Read more]

He said that what sets a Geneseo student apart is they will almost always hold the door open for you. I was surprised to […]
