The College Experience and Living Resources, Inc. wishes to congratulate Nick Williams who appears to be on a roll, which is a huge understatement! In a single week, Nick has managed to have two successful interviews at the Palace Theatre and the Guilderland YMCA to become a volunteer.
On the date of Monday, March 4, 2019, Amy Maiorano was invited to Mercy College in Dobbs Ferry, NY, where she had the chance to speak to the class of Professor Eileen Hoffman. We wish to highlight her public speaking talents, where she educated the class about Deletion 22q.
David traveled all the way to Vermont to participate in the “Kids of Courage” event that took place on Sunday, February 10, 2019. The mission of Adaptive Sports and the Kids of Courage event is to provide opportunities for young people with chronic illnesses to enjoy the thrill of skiing using adaptive equipment as well as the support from staff members like David.
One of the more unique activities was a post-Valentine’s Day surprise on Friday, February 15, 2019 in the Midnight Eats Lounge on Madison Avenue. Midnight Eats, which is normally a late-night dining and relaxation area, was turned into Dating Central as plenty of our students chose to participate in Speed Dating. They paid a very small fee to have the chance of meeting other college students beyond those in the program to tell each other about their interests, life backgrounds, and what they are looking for in a romantic relationship.
The first meeting of 2019 for the Best Buddies Club recently took place within the Midnight Eats Lounge located on the College of Saint Rose campus. Best Buddies is a wonderful opportunity for our students to form friendships with mainstream students from the College of Saint Rose to help immerse them in campus life.
The classes at the College Experience truly put the FUN in fundamental learning experiences. This is certainly true in the Mythology class taught by Professor Michelle Brown, as the students learn about the purpose of myths and the value they serve for cultural purposes.
Living Resources, Inc. always likes providing opportunities for our individuals to reach new heights as we teach them the skills necessary to excel as a co-worker, friend, employee, romantic partner, artist, and plenty of other wonderful things. Allow us to introduce the talented, humorous, and loquacious (a.k.a. talkative) Andrew Maggio ’14, who just had his strong debut as a staff trainer on Monday, February 11, 2019
It is that annual tradition again when everybody rages against the cold of winter by generating their own feverish enthusiasm on Super Bowl Sunday. Everybody unites as one regardless of what team they are rooting for on this epic day of football hysteria.
On the morning of Thursday, January 31, 2019 some of the busy employees within Living Resources, Inc. were caught in a rare, reclining position when not pounding away on their laptops for a while. But they had a very good excuse to lie down for a little while on the job. A decent number of our awesome employees made the choice to open their hearts and hemoglobin-enriched bodies for the sake of saving lives.
Rachael and Andrew enjoyed the most recent adventure with the Alumni Activities Club on Sunday, January 27, 2019, that took them to the Guilderland YMCA where they explored the pool facilities. They then ventured to Ruby Tuesday for a healthy, delicious, dinner.
