SOAR Past Events

FALL 2023

This semester has been a mix of social events to increase community, and administrative work to identify and pursue shared objectives. Over the semester, we held several social events that brought together students from all of our disciplines:

  • A conversation with the founding director about student hopes and fears for our burgeoning School of the Arts over Paul and Son’s pizza in the Printmaking shop.
  • A graduate student bowling mixer that brought together students from all of our graduate programs at Midway lanes in Vestal.
  • Cookies, Cocoa, Crayons and Coloring at the Binghamton University Art Museum, where students took a break from the end-of-semester crunch to play with our new logo as we continue to develop our shared identity (and, of course, talk with the director about their ideas and concerns for the School of the Arts).
