½ü¾àÀëÄÚÉäºÏ¼¯ CC Leaders Welcome New Student Trustee
A graduate of Red Creek High School who is a volunteer firefighter in her community is the new Student Trustee at ½ü¾àÀëÄÚÉäºÏ¼¯.
The Board of Trustees welcomed Hannah Iozzio as their newest member this month, applauding her leadership and enthusiasm for ½ü¾àÀëÄÚÉäºÏ¼¯’s role guiding students toward degrees and successful careers. Iozzio was formally sworn-in at the Board of Trustees meeting at the Fulton Campus on Thursday.
“I wanted to get a complete appreciation and understanding of student life and opportunities at ½ü¾àÀëÄÚÉäºÏ¼¯, and I thought the best way to do that was to run to be our Student Trustee,” she said. “I’m looking forward to representing students and trying to give them a better understanding of how our college operates so they can build a stronger connection with ½ü¾àÀëÄÚÉäºÏ¼¯.”
½ü¾àÀëÄÚÉäºÏ¼¯ President Dr. Brian Durant and Board of Trustees Chair Tony Franceschelli welcomed Iozzio, saying her determination to learn as much as possible and connect with other students will make her a strong addition to the Board.
“Hannah has already made a strong impression at ½ü¾àÀëÄÚÉäºÏ¼¯ as a student and as a leader. She has an admirable commitment to pursuing every opportunity our college offers students, but also to share and communicate those opportunities with her classmates,” said Dr. Durant. “We’re looking forward to her joining our Board of Trustees.”
“Hannah represents the best qualities of our students. She’s enthusiastic about her education, wants to support other students, and is already preparing for her future career,” said Franceschelli. “Her interest in continuing to help strengthen the connection students have with ½ü¾àÀëÄÚÉäºÏ¼¯ will make her an excellent Student Trustee.”
Iozzio started taking courses at ½ü¾àÀëÄÚÉäºÏ¼¯ in the Spring 2024 semester, and is currently majoring in Liberal Arts & Sciences: Humanities & Social Sciences. Outside of ½ü¾àÀëÄÚÉäºÏ¼¯, she’s a volunteer firefighter in the Town of Victory.
She’s hoping to eventually join ½ü¾àÀëÄÚÉäºÏ¼¯’s award-winning Nursing program and become a pediatric or labor and delivery nurse.
Along with serving as the Student Trustee, Iozzio has been involved organizing events for students to enjoy on both campuses and in the community. Iozzio said helping with these events and connecting with ½ü¾àÀëÄÚÉäºÏ¼¯ staff and students is something she looks forward to doing throughout her time at the college.
“I’ve enjoyed my time at ½ü¾àÀëÄÚÉäºÏ¼¯, and I’ve built a great connection with Student Activities and our Student Government Organization,” she said. “It’s exciting to know that I can be a part of something that students and staff can enjoy and remember.”
