Single student-parents learn to deal

It’s 7:40 a.m., class starts at 8 a.m., but you have to drop your 3-year-old son at the day care and you can’t seem to find your keys.  You slip on a toy car, lecture him about leaving toys out, and smile to find your keys in front of you. 

Welcome to student-parent life. 

Buffalo State College offers all student-parents with a variety of services including counseling, day care and housing to help them ease their transition. The individual makes the final choice.

In the dimly lit confines of theTheater Arts Building, four actors build to a booming crescendo. Eyes closed, they begin with a low hum – then raise an octave, then another, and another. The vocal exercise peaks when the air drains from their lungs. Upon climaxing, their collective voice gets lost in the lofty expanse of the room. There is no echo.

Buffalo State College offers a variety of on-campus student organizations. There are over 50 organizations, and there is one for just about any student looking to get involved.

Being a part of an organization enhances the college experience by allowing students to meet and work with other students who share similar interests outside of the classroom.
