Allison Muller Recognized for Community Service at SUNY Oneonta

2014 May 30

Allison Muller of Mahopac, NY, was among the 39 members of the SUNY Oneonta Class of 2014 who received Senior Service Awards recognizing their commitment to volunteerism. Students who completed at least 350 hours of service through the college's Center for Social Responsibility and Community (CSRC) were recognized during a reception in May.

Muller, who majored in Childhood Education (1-6) at SUNY Oneonta, logged 801 hours of service as an emergency medical technician and in the education field.

More than 20 percent of SUNY Oneonta students donate time to a local organization or cause through the CSRC. As a result, SUNY Oneonta contributes over 50,000 hours of service annually to nearly 100 nonprofit agencies in Oneonta and beyond. In recognition of the college's civic partnerships and service learning activities, the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching awarded SUNY Oneonta its Community Engagement Classification in 2011.
