League of Storytellers

The League of Storytellers was formed in response to Academic Affairs 2024-25 Goal #6: Creating sustainable methods for storytelling for continuously elevating and celebrating the stories of our people (faculty, staff, and students).

The League of Storytellers is a team of student interns in the Provost's Office, overseen by the senior assistant to the provost, Kathy Atts, who are responsible for strategizing and producing engaging stories/publications that showcase Geneseo faculty, staff, and students in a celebratory way via audio, visual, written articles, and/or social media posts. The Storytellers find and tell stories that otherwise may not be told.

Mission / Vision / Values

In alignment with SUNY Geneseo's mission, vision, and values, the Academic Affairs League of Storytellers'

mission is to discover and share broadly the success stories of our faculty, staff, and students.
vision is to continuously elevate and celebrate the stories of our faculty, staff, and students above and beyond the classroom, lab, and office to the greater campus community and, ultimately, the world.
values are integrity, enthusiasm, accuracy, excellence, and making a difference.
