League of Storytellers
The League of Storytellers was formed in late summer 2025 as a response to Academic Affairs 2024-25 Goal #6:聽Creating sustainable methods for storytelling for continuously elevating and celebrating the stories of our people (faculty, staff, and students) and the new initiative that would provide an opportunity for students to serve in on-campus internships.
The League of Storytellers, a team of student interns in the Provost’s Office overseen by senior assistant to the provost Kathy Atts, strategized and produced engaging stories/publications that showcased Geneseo faculty, staff, and students in a celebratory way via audio, visual, written articles, and social media posts. The Storytellers’ mission was to find and tell stories that otherwise may not have been told publicly.
During winter break 2025-26, the League of Storytellers transitioned to the Department of Communication under the leadership of Kelli Sperino-Pease, the聽Director of the Media Suite & WGSU Radio.
