What they think are bad pictures, are often their best, most interesting work. What were first portraits of the 'mentally disabled' have turned into just portraits, and you can see that by looking at my work. Tinani, of Selkirk, N.Y., volunteered for the Albany ARC while she was in high school, and enjoys teaching and working with the participants. But it's also fun and exciting. Each class is exhilarating.
Plans are to display photos by the students and their teachers in a campus show next winter term.
About 120 students will visit campus during each one-day program between June 24 and 28, according to Kate Schurick, assistant dean of students. Students will attend programs on academics, international programs, student activities and campus life. Meanwhile, their parents will have sessions of their own on topics including residence life, campus safety, health services and student services. Students will meet with faculty advisors, pre-register for classes, log on to their computer accounts, and participate in a freshman survey, Schurick said. When they arrive in the fall, they'll hit the ground running.
