HC BuffState: What was your best memory as a undergrad at Buffalo State?”
“I’ll tell you what my favorite thing was from each year. Freshman year was being able to meet my now very dear and lifelong friends (squaaaad). Sophomore year was eing able to live with them, and that was alos the year I knew my major was the absolute perfect choice for me. I loved every single one of my classes both semesters. Junior year was being able to study abroad in London and for Senior Year, it was definitely great to look back at all the things I’ve accomplished and realize how far I have come in 4 years!” – Maria
I have too many to choose from. But one of them would be from freshman year with my roommate, There was a “do you know your roommate” program and my roommate and I studied all week for it, constantly quizzing each other. I had so much fun getting to know her and strengthening our bond together. We didn’t win but that’s okay.” – Jennifer
“I have a lot of favorite memories from Buff State, But I think my favorite was just the feeling of how at home I was freshman year. Tunning arond my building and just like, walking into peoples’ rooms who left their door open and sitting on their floor! Haha, I think that’s how I made the majority of my friends that year” – Katlyn
