Colleen Cheney of West Stockholm majors in the Graphic and Multimedia Design program and is the President for the SUNY Canton chapter of the National Society of Leadership and Success.
“I knew I wanted to go somewhere that was career intensive and had great staff,” she said. “I found that Canton had a graphic design program that was fast-paced, project oriented, and helps its students grow in the creative field.”
Her favorite faculty member is Professor Matthew Burnett because of his honest feedback, his knowledge of the arts and his encouraging attitude towards students.
“February of 2024, I established the National Society of Leadership and Success on our campus,” she said. “It is both an online and in person organization provided to build leadership skills in students and alumni.”
Colleen graduates in 2025 and plans to join the creative field so she can work her way up to a Creative Director position.
