Testimonials from former Dean's Team students

Not only did being on the Dean's Team teach me about professionalism and event planning, but it also taught me to embrace and take advantage of my strengths. I made 8 amazing friends, and many connections with them and our Professor. Through this internship I was able to grow, network, and have fun!

The Dean's Team provided me with a unique opportunity to get to know a little bit more about the Dean of Students Office, the services it provides, and the people working hard to make students' experiences at Binghamton as positive as possible. The internship also helped me to further develop my leadership skills and identify my individual strengths while building lasting relationships with other student leaders!
