Hear from Our Students
In 2021, the Tsaos approached the Division of Student Affairs to contribute to and develop a program that enhances student life and creates additional opportunities for connection between Seawolves. The Seawolves Outdoor Adventure Program (SOAP) provides just that, helping students to build connections with other fellow Seawolves in a fun and outdoor environment, and perhaps meet their friends for life!

"When I initially learned about the Student Emergency Support Fund, I felt it could be a program worth backing. My late wife, Natalie Gubb, and I were graduates of Stony Brook University. It was there that we gained the knowledge, skills, and friendships that set the foundation for our careers and life together. As I delved deeper into the fund's mission, I realized it was offering students facing financial crises the very same chance we had: to complete their education and embark on their life paths. Ultimately, it was the heartfelt testimonials from students who had benefited from this emergency financial support that persuaded me to contribute to the fund."
