Rachel Shanor

Being involved with PTK has been one of the most life changing experiences I’ve had at SUNY Niagara. As an officer and member of PTK, I developed great leadership, professional, and personal skills. I also met some amazing people along the way. I will forever cherish my time within the Alpha Pi Beta Chapter at SUNY Niagara.
