Greetings from President Bonahue to Suffolk County Community College

President Bonahue’s first week here at SUNY Suffolk has been busy! Naturally, there have been numerous phone calls and lots of meetings, but the President also had time for an introduction to our mascot, Finn. As you can see, they are becoming fast friends and both are looking forward to welcoming our students back on campus for the fall.
