SUNY Broome hosted high school counselors from across the region to keep their districts up to date about new programming at the college.
Career Counselor with the Owego Apalachin Central School District, Tom Westcott says, “It is important that counselors are uniquely aware of what’s going on in our community, and in an effort to have our students stay in our community, and become contributing members of our county. And so, SUNY Broome plays a huge role in that. Having counselors up to date with everything new that’s going on in SUNY Broome is incredibly important.”
