Bands, Brands, and the Wagner Plan

By Doug Donato On April 22, 2013 · Leave a Comment · In Doug Donato, Part of NYC
Now that I have really gotten into the groove of my job, I want to update you on what type of work I have been doing. The past few months have really allowed me to learn and grow, and I am more confident than ever that Wagner and this internship have prepared me well for what lies ahead. I work for Warner Music in the field of Brand Partnerships and Licensing. This may sound really [...]

No (Real) Rest for the Interns

By Doug Donato On March 18, 2013 · Leave a Comment · In Doug Donato, Part of NYC
Spring Break is usually about going on vacations to the Tropics and/or partying with friends somewhere warmer than New England. For myself and some of my fellow interns, however, it just meant one more week of work. Not that I am sad about this — it was a great week! It was quiet and I was able to take advantage of some activities that I’ve wanted to do for a while, but couldn’t find the [...]

The Trip Can Teach Us Too

By Doug Donato On February 27, 2013 · Leave a Comment · In Doug Donato, Part of NYC
By now, most people know that I spend most of my time representing Wagner off campus, and travel time takes up a larger chunk of my day. During the work day, I keep my mind open to receive lessons, whether they be about life or learning a new skill in the workplace.  Most of the time when I am on the ferry or in transit, there is only one thing on my mind: getting home. This [...]

Wait, Real World… I’m Still in College!

By Doug Donato On February 19, 2013 · Leave a Comment · In Doug Donato, Part of NYC
I knew when I handed in my forms to officially declare an Arts Administration major that I would need to find a full-time internship for a semester, but I wasn’t prepared for how quickly that time would come. Well… it’s here and so far it has been quite an experience. A lot of majors are required to complete internship hours for their senior year or at some point during their time at Wagner. It is [...]

One Month Down

By Doug Donato On February 15, 2013 · Leave a Comment · In Doug Donato, Part of NYC
This past week marks the four-week mark of the semester, which means several different things. It means that I’ve been working at my new job for over a month, have watched the past couple of weeks fly by, and am one month into my last semester of undergrad… a little mind-blowing when you step back and look at it. If there is one thing that the past month has taught me it is to keep an open [...]

“Rose from the Dead” With Tony Reonegro: The Ultimate Backstage Pass!

By Doug Donato On December 7, 2012 · Leave a Comment · In Doug Donato
The Grateful Dead… everyone has heard of them, even if they don’t know the music. The band toured relentlessly for more than 30 years, built one of the most loyal fan bases of all time (deadheads), and inspired a huge slew of bands to make great music today. As a big fan of the band, I was so excited to check out the new exhibit, “Rose from the Dead,” by Antonio Reonegro, an art/photography professor [...]

Time Flies When You’re A Seahawk

By Doug Donato On November 29, 2012 · Leave a Comment · In Doug Donato
Hope all of you Seahawks had a great Thanksgiving! A time when most of us go home and enjoy some great food and family … but wait! What? It’s already past Thanksgiving? It’s at times like these that even after four years, I’m amazed how quickly the end of the semester sneaks up on me. I find myself in a state of thinking I have endless time to get everything done: homework, projects, work, commitments, [...]

Internships: Don’t Stress. Impress!

By Doug Donato On November 20, 2012 · Leave a Comment · In Beyond NY, Doug Donato, On campus, Part of NYC
The fall semester is always a time when there is one thing on many students’ minds… internships! Internships are great because as students, we can get a lot out of them and they offer us great experience and credentials for our resumes and can even lead to jobs. Companies also love internships, because let’s face it, who doesn’t like free labor? Wagner is a school that makes it easy to find internships because of its [...]

Wagner College Weathering the Storm

By Doug Donato On November 5, 2012 · Leave a Comment · In Doug Donato, On campus, Part of NYC
When I heard that Hurricane Sandy was on its way, I only expected to be home for a day or two and then return to campus and see minimal damage, similar to last year when Irene pushed us all into the Spiro Sports Center. Never did I expect to see an area so close to home hit with such force and destruction. While our campus may have survived, many homes nearby are suffering from ruin, [...]

Tradition Time… Homecoming is Here!

By Doug Donato On October 27, 2012 · Leave a Comment · In Doug Donato, On campus
As I have mentioned in my earlier post, Homecoming is a time of year that everyone at Wagner seems to come together and the student body is one united force of Wagner pride. While it has changed much since my freshman year (time flies!), it is still an event that creates a lot of buzz around campus and where everyone, from alumni, administration, students, teachers, and parents get involved. I have seen it from some [...]
