Student Life & Rich Traditions

CCNY represented New York at its best. It was really a melting pot; you would find everybody and anybody at CCNY. I very much enjoyed life on campus. I loved the club hours, and it was a great way to meet different ethnic groups from different backgrounds. I was in the Caribbean Club, and I also organized my own club while I was there. I organized the Bodybuilding Club, so I was very active with life on campus. I enjoyed mathematics and literature as a whole. Professor Jaffe was my math teacher, and she was a very good teacher. CCNY prepared me very well for life after college. It had a way of pushing you to do your best, and we were very much into freethinking and finding out ways, which apply very well to life after college. I have been in business on my own since I graduated. My whole life has been shaped by CCNY; hard work, determination, stick-to-itiveness, and community were all part of it.
