WHAT WE’RE TALKING ABOUT
Fall Career and Internship Fair
Some of the employers meeting with Stockton students during Stockton’s fall Career and Internship Fair on Oct 4, were once Ospreys themselves. A common piece of advice they shared is to
gain as much internship and work experience as possible while in college.
Stockton Poll Shows U.S. Senate Race in Dead Heat
The race for a U.S. Senate seat in New Jersey is a statistical dead heat, with incumbent
Democrat Bob Menendez leading Republican challenger Bob Hugin by two percentage points,
according to a Stockton University poll released on Oct. 1.
Make a Wave of Impact Together!
Faculty and staff were asked to “Make a Wave” on Oct. 4 at the annual Stockton New
Jersey Employees Charitable Campaign (NJECC) Kickoff Breakfast in the Campus Center
Event Room.
Last year, Stockton set the standard for all of the other public institutions of higher education, raising $60,467. This year’s goal is to raise $61,676. There are more than 1,100 charities you can choose to support. The statewide campaign runs through Dec. 31. Every week, all Stockton employees who have donated through the campaign will be put into a drawing for a sweepstakes prize.
If you plan to make a gift through payroll deduction, you can register and donate through the NJECC online giving portal or fill out a paper pledge form. If you plan to make a one-time donation, please fill out a paper pledge form. Email stocktonnjecc@stockton.edu or stop by Human Resources (J115) to request a paper pledge form.
This year’s committee includes Christy Cunningham (chairperson), associate director for training & organizational development; Tom Chester, assistant vice president for Human Resource Operations & payroll; Ayisha Lee, professional services specialist; Alex Marino, director of operations Atlantic City Campus; Nicole Milan-Tyner, assistant professor - visiting, School of Health Sciences; Yubi Pena, secretarial assistant; Meaghan Resta, director of publications & special projects; Tom Roth, bursar; Lolita Treadwell, deputy chief of staff; and Sharon Stubbs, program assistant.

all of the dishes that I hold dear to my heart!"
