Students look out over the valley from the gazebo.

A Leader On and Off the Court: Gabrielle (Gabby) Ayzenberg '21 is both an outside hitter and a defensive specialist for the women's volleyball team. Off the court, she's a communications major who is also a leader for fellow student-athletes, serving as the College's Student-Athlete Advisory Committee president and a representative for the SUNY-wide Student-Athlete Advisory Committee. She is a volunteer mentor for other Geneseo athletes and has earned the bronze certificate in the GOLD program.

Students welcome a new academic year with a brilliant sunset over the valley.

Fall views such as this are one reason Geneseo was named to Conde Nast Traveler's 50 Most Beautiful College Campuses list this year.

Midfielder Jordan Penkitis '21 has learned a lot about teamwork during her four-year field hockey career at Geneseo. "We have to understand everyone’s differences in how they play, in how they like to receive feedback and how they like to be motivated," she says. "We can then appreciate everyone’s differences and learn how to work well together to create the team culture we’re striving for." Penkitis looks forward to her career as a teacher for grades 7-12, and teaching more than math and knowledge. "It is really important to think about the skills they will gain from my class that will help them with life, including problem-solving, critical thinking and how to be a good person. They are all small steps to helping them become global citizens."

Back in the Swing: We've rounded the corner! Geneseo Athletics is back in full stride, including men's and women's cross country. The Knights hosted the 40th Annual Mike Woods Invitational on Oct.2 at the National Warplane Museum in Geneseo. Junior Kathleen McCarey (pictured) earned first place as the Knights swept top finishes in both the men's and women's races. The invitational is named in honor of retired cross-country coach Mike Woods.
