SAA student wins national award

Nii Tetteh, a dual master’s student in student affairs administration and public administration, earned an Outstanding Master’s Student award in December from the national organization dedicated to the field of student affairs.

The award, from the American College Personnel Association Graduate Students and New Professionals Community of Practice, recognized his contributions to his program through collaborations with faculty inside and outside the classroom as well as his work with Binghamton University Residential Life.

It was the second year in a row a master’s student from the Department of Student Affairs Administration (SAA) has earned the national award.

Tetteh, a native of Brewster, N.Y., was also praised for bringing a valuable perspective to planning an SAA fall 2022 orientation, helping improve engagement with students at the event.
