Hearing Christmas Bells

By Lynn Tay On January 2, 2013 · Leave a Comment · In Lynn Tay, On campus
As winter break approached, students on campus bustled and scurried to finish last-minute assignments and get all of their studying in as final examinations began.  In the midst of finals week, I had the pleasure of enjoying a holiday concert put on by the Wagner College Concert Band.  On December 8, 2012, at 3:00 PM, I entered the newly renovated Main Hall building and nestled myself next to my suite mate to enjoy a beautiful [...]

“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 [...]

A Meet to Remember

By Lynn Tay On December 7, 2012 · Leave a Comment · In Beyond NY, Lynn Tay
The crowd is going wild.  Cheering fills the air, and all I can hear is “go, go, go” reverberating through the air of the pool.  Swimmers from all four teams line the sides of the pool, their arms flailing frantically in the air, pushing on their fellow teammates.  One lap of freestyle left to go, and all six girls are head-to-head as they approach the last fifteen yards of the race.  They touch the wall, [...]

By Lynn Tay On December 3, 2012 · Leave a Comment · In Lynn Tay, Megan Irving
Throughout this semester, the Wagner College students of Learning Community (LC) 20 and their professors, Dr. Lori Weintrob and Dr. Jason Fitzgerald, devoted their time to work with the students at Port Richmond High School, helping the high school students learn to take initiative and become leaders in their community. This LC is titled, “Beyond Bono and Bill Gates: Leadership for Change in Today’s World.” When Meg and I shadowed the group of students from Wagner and [...]

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, [...]

Wagner’s Amazing Performers Part 2

By Christian Grotewold On November 28, 2012 · Leave a Comment · In Christian Grotewold
Having covered the student productions of plays and musical theatre on my last blog, it is time to cover the main productions at Wagner: Stage One and Main Stage productions. These two are the most professional out of all the theatre-related productions at Wagner College, since they are run by faculty members. Having professionals running the shows makes the performances enjoyable and addicting. Plays and other intimate performances are shown on Stage One. Titles include [...]

Wagner’s Amazing Performers

By Christian Grotewold On November 27, 2012 · Leave a Comment · In Christian Grotewold
If you want to be blown away by amazing performances and theatre productions, then Wagner is the place to go. The productions that are put up with the theatre majors are simply mind blowing. I have loved every single one of the musicals and plays I have seen. The actors, singers, and dancers are spectacular, but of course a good show would not be able to succeed without amazing direction and stage managing. Wagner Theatre [...]

Dental Impressions

By Lynn Tay On November 20, 2012 · Leave a Comment · In Lynn Tay, Part of NYC
Although Wagner College is a small school, it is a school with big opportunities. I am a biology major with a Pre-Dentistry concentration. As part of the Pre-Dentistry Society and Wagner College’s Pre-Health program, I learn about many different opportunities to learn more about the profession that I am interested in. Last Saturday morning, I joined many other members of the Pre-Dentistry Society to attend New York University’s (NYU) Dental Impressions event. The morning began [...]

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 [...]

Student By Day. Movie Star By Night.

By Christian Grotewold On November 13, 2012 · Leave a Comment · In Christian Grotewold, Part of NYC
Wagner College is full of opportunities, and I most certainly took major advantage of one in particular: movie castings. Wagner is a very popular place to shoot movies; perhaps the biggest one has been “School of Rock.” Being an arts-heavy college, Wagner offers great chances to all students for the movies filmed on campus, and offers castings every now and then for off-campus movies. My first experience was last year with a movie shoot on [...]
