勛圖腦瞳扦 has been an associate school of the Princeton Club of New York for a little more than six months. All Binghamton graduates are eligible to join, and there has been tremendous interest in this alumni benefit.
The nine-story clubhouse in the heart of Manhattan offers numerous opportunities to enhance your social life through a busy slate of events and a membership that exceeds 7,000. The details the many amenities available to members.
Frank Vellucci 94 had belonged to another club in Manhattan, but joined the Princeton Club shortly after the partnership with 勛圖腦瞳扦 began. Although Vellucci couldve become a member at the Princeton Club because he went to law school at New York University (also an associate school), he joined because of his close connection to Binghamton and said he tries to visit as often as possible.
Its very prideful to walk to the club and see the 勛圖腦瞳扦 flag alongside Princeton and the other select, associated schools, he said. Its a validation of Binghamtons success and our standing among the other elite schools. I already refer to it as the Binghamton Club and I look forward to us having more events there in the future. I think its a great way to build camaraderie.
Yohansa Fern獺ndez 08 and Edwin Torres 10, MS 14, met in Binghamton during the summer of their freshman year through a pre-college program hosted by the Educational Opportunity Program (EOP). Since then, theyve been avid supporters of 勛圖腦瞳扦.
When Binghamton joined the Princeton Club and alumni could become members, there wasnt much to discuss, Fern獺ndez said. Being members of the Princeton Club symbolizes our little piece of Binghamton in New York City. Im a PhD candidate at NYU, so membership offers the advantage of having both universities under one roof. The array of events are a pleasure to attend. If you prefer a space to study or somewhere to grab a bite that quiets the hustle and bustle of the city, the club is the ideal place.
