Meet Some Educational Opportunity Program (EOP) Students at SUNY Plattsburgh

Meet an EOP Student

	Donta Bartley Hometown: Southside Jamaica Queens, NY High School: Flushing High School Class Level: Sophomore Major: TV/Video Broadcast Journalism Minor: Theatre Without EOP I wouldn’t have made it to college.  EOP looked beyond my high school grades, and gave me a chance to really prove myself.  EOP gives students a sense of family, we’re far more informed than other students, and we are surrounded by support.  This family and support alleviates stress and makes it easier to be successful and focused.  EOP is an opportunity and blessing.
	Jessica Santos Hometown: Brooklyn, NY High School: Grover Cleveland High School Class Level: Senior Major: English Language Arts EOP has helped me in every way possible.  The best part is the EOP family—it’s what made me stay in Plattsburgh.  EOP creates friendships that will last a lifetime.  Students should consider EOP at Plattsburgh because the services are amazing.  The staff is here to support you with nearly everything.   EOP provides opportunities for growth, and you will feel ready to tackle anything.  Freshmen in particular develop high levels of confidence, which helps students make the most of the college experience for all four years.
	Brian Gonzalez Hometown: Harlem, NY High School: BREC Class Level: Junior Major: TV/Video Broadcast Journalism & Audio Production Minor: Theatre EOP is like a family who will also love and support you.  EOP has been everything to me.  EOP motivates me to do well and the program has also helped me grow.  I also have a huge network of friends thanks to EOP.  EOP creates the ideal college experience.  I feel surrounded by people (students and staff) who want to see me succeed.
