Katie Combs

"Joining the Office of New Student and Transition Programs my first year at Stony Brook helped me grow in ways I didn't think I was capable of. Through endless support from my professional staff in both the New Student and Transition Programs office and the greater office of Student Life, I have been able to achieve my goal of getting more involved on campus and discovered my love of working with students. The environment and people I have worked with have made the time spent here so incredibly fulfilling, I will forever appreciate the opportunities I received from being a part of this office the past four years."

“I think community is one of the best things that Stony Brook has to offer. There are so many different types of communities, with over 400 clubs- it's kind of hard not to find your niche."

“I've been part of the Student Life department for nearly my entire time at Stony Brook, and it has been the most significant place for my growth. Transitioning between departments, pushing myself to take on higher and more challenging roles, and forming close friendships are just a few ways this experience has profoundly impacted me.”

"As a Filipino immigrant at Stony Brook University, I've discovered a supportive community that not only offers valuable opportunities but also fosters a profound sense of belonging. From starting as a Student Life Undergraduate Marketing Assistant graphic designer to connecting with inspiring individuals across clubs, organizations, and dedicated staff, my journey through Student Life has been enriching and fulfilling. I'm especially inspired by the vibrant student-led events that celebrate diversity and passion, alongside programs facilitated by staff that promote social engagement and academic achievement. This nurturing environment has made my ambitious goals feel achievable, motivating me to contribute to campus inclusivity and community growth for everyone who becomes a part of Stony Brook as well as those who have graduated."
