Program forges a new future

The lower level of Washington Hall hums with electronics.

A bank of 3-D printers uses thermoplastics to transform student concepts into tangible creations. The Media Arts program’s new Maker Space connects design theory with the latest production technology for a more hands-on educational approach.

The lab opened during the summer and will expand into a larger space in the spring as the Media Arts program grows into newly renovated space upstairs in the building.

“We’re just really in its infancy,” Nick Paigo, professor of graphic arts and the chair of the Technology division, said of the possibilities for the Maker Space.

Although created for SUNY Adirondack students, Paigo would like the space to become open for use by community members, especially local high school students who may not have access to similar technology.

“I envision it being a place where sixth- through 12th-graders could work on projects. I think it is important to engage students early,” he said.

The advanced technology also opens up new possibilities for the college’s academic programs.

“We want people to be able to use it in different classes across the campus, and it gives us the opportunity to build some new curriculum within the Media Arts program,” Paigo said.

Art meets commerce for college grad

Anna Burns is focused on a successful career.

A native of Queensbury, Burns found a passion for photography while studying at SUNY Adirondack.

She graduated in 2018 with an associate degree in Media Arts and transferred to Savannah College of Art and Design. She is finishing her last credits toward a bachelor’s degree while working as a freelance digital retoucher for Hudson Yards Studio, an affiliate of LSC Communications. The job involves digitally enhancing photos for major advertisers, including Victoria’s Secret.

Burns credits SUNY Adirondack with giving her the technical skills needed to build a career.

“The most helpful class I took would be the Advertising Photography class taught by Brandon Segal,” Burns said. “It gave me an idea of the photography, graphic design and retouching that is necessary for an advertising assignment.”

 

HOSPITALITY MANAGEMENT

Hospitality degree offers room for growth

Amanda Berrigan is enjoying a second career.

Berrigan, who lives in South Glens Falls, spent 10 years in the restaurant business before deciding to pursue a career that better suited her family life. The Hospitality Management program at SUNY Adirondack made it possible for her to take time obtaining a degree and get hands-on experience through internships.

“I think internships are so important. It is so hard to say you are going to get a degree in something without experiencing it first-hand,” Berrigan said. “The professors I had were mostly local people who knew the market and the opportunities at hand for the students and were willing to go the extra mile to place us after graduating. The classes in the program were molded to give us a well-rounded insight into what the hospitality field would be like.”

A 2009 SUNY Adirondack graduate, Berrigan now works as director of sales and marketing at Holiday Inn Express & Suites in Queensbury.

“I’m responsible for overseeing the revenue trends for the property and making sure we are hitting our overall revenue goals for the year. The director fields the phone calls and inquiries, sets the rates and follows through with the contracting process. As base business comes in, it is important that these leads are followed up on, tracking new potential for each account and always making sure we are following up after a guest stay to see if we can do anything better,” she said.

Berrigan encourages local students looking for career placement directly after graduation to consider a degree in Hospitality Management.

“Hotels are everywhere and in dire need of people who want to be in the hospitality industry,” she said. “ There are beautiful new brands like Marriott and Hilton developing locally and willing to take fresh graduates under their wings.”

Fast Facts

  • Hospitality, especially within the field of tourism, is a $1.5 billion industry in the Adirondack region.
  • Hospitality leads to employment of more than 6,500 individuals, and indirectly provides almost 3,000 jobs in the region.

OUTDOOR EDUCATION

Name change offers new opportunities

SUNY Adirondack’s popular Adventure Sports program has a new moniker — and a continued commitment to the economy and sustainability of the Adirondacks.

The college recently changed the program to Outdoor Education to better align with four-year colleges offering transfer programs.

“Beyond the name change, we were able to expand business, science and liberal arts elective models,” said Clint McCarthy, associate professor of Outdoor Education. “We also revised the concentration areas from options in our introductory courses to mandatory courses.”

Adventure Sports classes have had a lasting effect on the college’s students.

SUNY Adirondack alumnus Sean Gallagher said he chose the major because it connected with his childhood experiences as a Boy Scout and Eagle Scout, but the program gave him a richer understanding of the world around him.

“I have fond memories of so many of the courses I took. The classes that culminated in back-country trips were some of the most memorable, however, and I have fond memories of hiking, canoeing, skiing  and snowshoeing through the Adirondack wilderness,” Gallagher said. “There were plenty of incredible vistas and experiences, from watching the sunrise over a blanket of clouds on top of Stevens Mountain in Pharaoh Lake Wilderness to the relief of finally skiing out onto a packed-out snowshoe trail in the High Peaks after spending most of the day breaking trail through a foot of fresh powder.”

Gallagher has applied the lessons he learned in the wilderness to other aspects of his life.

“The memories that stand out most are of the hardships — and the lessons they taught. In scrambling up a hillside overgrown with brambles, we learned perseverance; in dealing with hypothermia on a cold morning skiing through the High Peaks, teamwork; in battling a head wind and driving rain for a whole day’s paddle on Long Lake, resilience. These experiences, while not strictly 'fun' or 'pleasant' at the time, represent nothing less than some of the most incredible and transformational moments in my life,” he said.

McCarthy is hopeful that the rebranding will give prospective students a better understanding of the depth of the program.

“The name Outdoor Education better defines what we have to offer. The curriculum changes support the outdoor experience while also broadening the range of classes students can take that support individual interests. The changes in the concentration area structure will provide a defined course schedule for students and enable them to be a more well-rounded outdoor professional,” he said.

Fast Facts

  • The 21st Congressional District of New York generates $1.5 billion annual in outdoor recreation, placing the region in the Top 20 among 435 districts.
  • Outdoor recreation is a $373 billion industry nationwide, accounting for 2% of the Gross Domestic Product.
  • Outdoor recreation supports 8 million jobs.
  • 145 million Americans participate in outdoor recreation each year.

SUNY Adirondack alumnus Jaime DeLong has enjoyed multiple jobs working outdoors in the Adirondacks, including serving as a whitewater rafting guide.

In Spring 2007, I took a physical education class called Beginning Whitewater Rafting. I was actually close to finishing my associate degree in Liberal Arts and planned on transferring to Castleton to major in Physical Education. Through this class I found out about the Adventure Sports program, and I was hooked. It’s crazy that one physical education class changed the trajectory of not only my career path, but my whole life! After graduation, I spent many years as a whitewater rafting guide and treetop adventure guide in the summer and a ski instructor in the winter. I still manage to get out on the river a few times a year — that’s my favorite hobby!  — Jamie DeLong, manager at Adirondack Extreme Adventure Course and snow sports director at West Mountain​

The trio will be joined by SUNY Adirondack Music major Miles Strohmeyer on electric bass for an interpretation of Lou Reed’s “Dirty Boulevard.”

The Schanzer-Speach Duo’s collaborative works combine the intuition and spontaneity of improvisation with the structure of formal composition. Speach, who teaches music at SUNY Adirondack, is a pianist and noted new music composer. Her work as a composer embraces a variety of styles, including solo, chamber and orchestral. Schanzer is a guitarist and composer rooted in jazz. Their album “Dualities” was released on the Mode/Avant label to much acclaim.
