Campus Champion

Hugh Anderson M ’17, assistant director of study abroad, has been instrumental in advising and supporting students who pursue opportunities around the world. Hugh’s own love of travel started at a young age, having dual citizenship with the United Kingdom through a father from Northern Ireland. This background inspired him to join the International Programs Office in 2011, starting his current position in 2023. Study abroad participation at SUNY Cortland has increased by 13% since last academic year, due in large part to Hugh’s work leading information sessions, reviewing academic plans and helping students select programs for academic and personal fit.
