Our staff encourages activities throughout New York City, acknowledging that this is the largest learning lab we have. Our student life staff works with both resident and commuter students throughout the year to provide activities on campus and opportunities to attend events in the city. College vans transport students to events off campus, such as Broadway shows, sporting events, and museums. Our students also gain experience through internships throughout the city. Internships increased this past year with the help of many alumni, as well as recruiters who came to campus to interview our seniors.
Students often graduate with two different job experiences already on their resume.
This prepares them for the competitive job market. Concern for those less fortunate and service to others are important values instilled by a Lasallian education. I am so proud of our young men and women who serve in soup kitchens, tutor underprivileged children, and bring food and clothing to the homeless. In June, a group of students traveled with Br. Dennis Lee, director of campus ministry, to South Africa for ten days to work at a Christian Brothers' school there.
