Student Olympian reflects on journey to London 2012 games This week, Kyle Vashkulat, a Business Administration major at SCCC, plans to take a short plane ride to meet up with friends and have some pictures taken. The friends will be fellow members of the United States Men’s Judo Team who competed in the 2012 Olympics in London this summer. The plane ride will be to Washington, D.C., and the photos will be of Kyle and the other U.S. Olympians with President Barack Obama. Kyle plans to leave on Thursday to attend a meet and greet with the President on the White House lawn, followed by a private tour of the White House, a reward for the Olympians who represented the U.S. in the 30th Olympiad in London in July and August 2012. Kyle, who has taken classes at SCCC since 2008, was the youngest member of the Men’s Judo Team, travelling from the Capital Region to London for the games on July 24, his 22nd birthday. He’s been training seriously for the Olympics since he was 15 years old and moved by himself from his family’s home just outside of Philadelphia to Burnt Hills to train with Jason Morris, an Olympic silver medalist. Kyle lived with Jason and his wife Teri Takemori in their Burnt Hills home, along with other athletes training at Morris’s dojo. “The Olympics became more tangible at that point, when I started training at Jason’s club,” Kyle said. “When I moved here and was at a more serious training center, I said, ‘I guess this is what I’m shooting for now’ and I decided to do this full time.” Every school day ended with two hours of practice, on top of homework, while Kyle attended Burnt Hills-Ballston Lake High School, graduating in 2008. He enrolled at SCCC that fall for two years and then took a break from school for a year and a
half to train full time. What began as a hobby at the age of 10 and a way for the Ukrainianborn youngster to make friends, was now a fulltime career and lifestyle. Kyle has competed in junior and senior tournaments travelling to countries including Thailand, France, Japan and Canada, and went into the Olympics ranked No. 37 in the world in his weight class, the Business Administration major Kyle Vashkulat 100-kilogram half-heavyweight. with Kobe Bryant at the 2012 Olympics He made the Olympic team as a wildcard following a nail-biter at the Pan Am Championship in Montreal in Spring 2012 and immediately began training harder than he ever had to prepare.

Well worth the wait Rob Krupanich, Performing Arts: Music major, addresses a crowd gathered outside the new SCCC School of Music during a ribbon cutting ceremony on Sept. 12 for the new $3.9 million building.

The new building has more practice rooms for students, teaching studios, classrooms, a student lounge and will house a recording studio.

Though from 205 countries from his time on the mat was brief, this around the world, to represent affable young man reflects on his their countries. He thought the Olympic experience with pride. “It Ralph Lauren designed outfits really is impossible to describe,” he (berets, blue blazers and white said. “There’s something like 7 pants/skirts) that the billion people in the world and less Americans wore, fit his style than one percent make it to the just fine. “I liked everything Olympics. I mean, that’s pretty SCCC student Kyle Vashkulat (right) with teammate but the berets,” he said, good.” Kyle is still undecided about Travis Stevens during the Opening Ceremony of the laughing. “It looked nice and whether or not he’ll commit to London 2012 Olympics. fit well, but I’m not a big training for the 2016 Olympics in hat guy.” Rio de Janeiro, but it’s definitely not out of the question, he said.
Celebrity chef pays for student’s culinary education at SCCC Donald “Scooter” Telford, a secondyear Culinary Arts major, says that you shouldn’t judge a book by its cover. In Scooter’s case, this couldn’t be more true as he explains that Chef Gordon Ramsay, the television chef known for his kitchen tirades, became an unlikely friend and benefactor. Ramsay befriended the 20-year-old Ballston Spa resident when he was working as a line cook in the kitchen of the Cambridge Hotel and Restaurant in Cambridge, N.Y. Owners of the hotel contacted Ramsay’s production company, appealing to those scouting struggling hotels to appear on Ramsay’s new television program, “Hotel Hell.” Ramsay and his crew arrived in February 2012 for a week and a half stay in Cambridge, offering suggestions for ways to improve the business. Despite Ramsay’s best efforts, the hotel closed in June 2012 with the episode featuring the Cambridge Hotel airing on Aug. 20, 2012. It was while interviewing employees of the hotel that Ramsay met Scooter and learned about this aspiring baker’s earnestness and tenacity while overcoming physical challenges including
two heart surgeries to repair a defective valve and two back surgeries to correct scoliosis. “When I had my back surgery in high school, the one thing that got me through it was cooking,” Scooter explained. “I actually felt like I was part of something.” Scooter shared stories about his love for baking with Ramsay and was on the receiving end of some of Ramsay’s rants while the show was shooting at the hotel. “He yelled at me a couple of times when I messed up a food order,” Scooter said. “But he said he liked how fast I was, he liked my speed.” (His nickname came courtesy of a chef in the hotel’s kitchen who said that he was fast, like a “scooter.”) But the two had many conversations during the course of filming and the young chef quickly learned that the celebrity chef was there to help. “Even though he’s being a hothead, he’s just really there to help you,” he said. Scooter and Chef Ramsay developed a quick friendship and when Ramsay learned that Scooter was attending college, he offered to pay for his tuition and supplies for the rest of his studies. Scooter sends Ramsay receipts for his tuition, books and supplies and Ramsay sends him checks to cover all of his college expenses. “He called me the other day and told me to keep my head up,” Scooter says matter-of-factly. In the future, Scooter would like to open a bakery. When he’s not working in the kitchen at a restaurant in Saratoga and attending SCCC, he checks his friend requests on Facebook. After the show aired on Aug. 20, he said he received about 500 friend requests from people in the United States, Japan, Canada, Greece and Italy, and the requests keep pouring in.

Their door is open Officers of the Student Government Association (SGA) want the student body to know that SGA is the voice of the students. SGA meetings are open to all and students can visit the SGA office, shown above, Elston 220H to discuss any concerns or ideas they might have. Shown above (clockwise from bottom left) are Christopher Del Vecchio, Student Activities Advisor; Dr. Martha Asselin, Vice President of Student Affairs; Thomas Bambury, Student Trustee; John Donahue, SGA President; Derrick Tusang, SGA Treasurer; and Amanda Ferguson, SGA Vice President. Leading the SGA this year is John J. Donahue, a Human Services major, who is a member of the Faculty-Student Association Board of Directors and Student Volunteer Organization. He is also the SCCC student representative on the New York State Student Assembly and Vice President of the Veterans Club. “As President of the SGA I hope to accomplish some great things this semester including one of the biggest turnouts for Student Senator Elections happening Sept. 26 - 28,” John said. “Instead of senators being at a booth in the student lounge area, we’ve instead made it mandatory for Student Senators to serve their time attending school functions. I will also appoint a Senate committee to address the updating of our Student Government Constitution, and I would also like to look into a school recycling program to possibly earn extra money for the student budget.”
Rewarding career choices may be nontraditional by Dawn Jones, Non Traditional Career Specialist So often we choose career paths based on stereotypes that society and our cultures place on us in regard to gender. Because of these expectations, we lose sight of career choices that are not traditional for our gender and tend to stay within the “norm.” In New York, men make up less than 25 percent of Accounting, Early Childhood, Nursing and Paralegal professionals. For women, nontraditional careers include fields such as Culinary Arts, Aviation, Business, Computer and Technology, Criminal Justice, Music/Business or Fire Protection. For some, these types of nontraditional careers may offer interesting and rewarding employment opportunities, higher wages and better benefits, opportunities for advancement and increased job satisfaction.
