Marketing Professor Interview by Sean Keenan

I was asked to create a blog for the school's blog and decided to interview one of the Business Administration and Computer Professors, Tim Bonomo....here are my thoughts on that interview:

A Marketing teacher that is very knowledgeable in both real world experiences along with teaching has much to offer to students. He believes Corning Community College is an outstanding school and currently believes that dorms would make a great addition to the college. Tim stated, during the interview, "dorms are the only missing puzzle piece of the school".

He rated the school a ten out of ten because Corning Community College is a great stepping stone to college life at a four-year college. As an alumnus himself he has a strong love for the college and teaches to make a positive impact on young adults.

He could sell this wonderful institution to anyone saying I can guarantee you can’t find a better bargain anywhere else in New York.

Corning Community College Info Sessions

Creativity is my job by Sarah Denike

I love my job as a student ambassador, and that is saying alot for someone who has been in a number of jobs that she hasn't liked or haven't been able to stay in. I have done housekeeping, food service, and retail and I think none of them compare to this for many reasons.

When I first was asked what focus area I wanted to work in as a student ambassador social media stuck out to me for some reason. Now that I am more involved I know this is where I want to be. Many of my talents and interests have an outlet in this area.

Among these interests are my love of writing, interaction with people and photo/video production. One of my favorite moments was when I videotaped the newly renovated game room and asked some of my friend’s questions about what they liked and how the area had changed. It was cool to see how they began to further utilize this new facility on campus.

Unlike my other jobs, being a student ambassador allows me to be creative. In this job I have the flexibility to create and ask questions. Sometimes I can decide what I want to focus on for that day. For example, today I needed to update Corning’s face book status so I decided to go to the woods and take pictures of the cabin by the small pond there. This was followed by pictures of the pond and dense forest where a creek resides. I love the woods and I love photography. Never has a job coincided so much with my interests, let alone allowed me to participate in them on a regular basis.

Did someone say DANCE? by Sarah Denike

Dancing is something that I have loved from childhood . The ability to tell a story through movement and beautiful expression; the feeling of release and power that is conveyed to the audience; it is truly one of my favorite things on earth.When i was young the movie Girls Just Wanna Have Fun helped spark this love. The movie was about a girl who loved to dance. She was very talented and got on a dance show and later on ...against all adversity ( brought upon by herself or some other source)... gets on the show and wins the contest ! This movie sparked my love of dancing .
I love many forms of dancing . One of them is Step which "is a form of percussive dance in which the participant's entire body is used as an instrument to produce complex rhythms and sounds through a mixture of footsteps, spoken word, and hand claps" It involves aspects of cheerleading drill, and military, African, Carribean, gymnastics, tap, march and some stunts that you probably shouldn't try if your like me and haven't done a cart wheel for ...well ...over ten years :) .

On Wednesday Nov 10th at 12 noon, Soul Steps is coming to the CCC Main Dining Room in the Commons. Soul Steps reaches far beyond conventional boundaries and concentrates on the body as a percussive, story-telling instrument. The performance will include the personal and cultural stories of Soul Steps artists and the generations of ancestors they represent.


I am so excited about this event and cannot wait to be put in awe of the innovaton and beauty of this art form as well as witness the skill and dedication of those that bring it to us.
