Campus ChampionSenior Patrick Viscome wears many titles at SUNY Cortland, each demanding a disciplined level of commitment. The Student Government Association president directs an executive board representing a wide range of campus populations. He aims to lead an expanded effort to give back to the community through campus-wide volunteerism. This natural leader sharpened his skills at Auxiliary Services Corporation, where he has worked since his freshman year. He now serves as Neubig’s assistant supervisor, a job that he tacks onto his already full schedule as a business economics honors student: a SUNY Cortland champion charting a successful future.
