Campus Champion

If you’ve been wowed by a campus photo in recent years, you likely have Charles Miller ’26 to thank. The recent graduate captured the best of SUNY Cortland for the past two years as a student photographer for the Marketing and Communications Office. An adolescence education: social studies and economics major, Charles earned the History Department’s Frank Burdick Award for Excellence in Student Teaching. He also helped fellow students as a resident assistant in DeGroat Hall. Charles plans to pursue a master’s degree in school counseling and share his talents through education and photography.
