Ben's favorite thing about DYU?
I would say that my favorite thing about being a part of D’Youville University would be the sense of community one has once they step foot on campus. Whether you are a member of the Faculty and Staff, a current student, perspective student, or family members, we are all here to help one another reach potential goals and individual accomplishments.
If you could be any flavor of ice cream, what would you be and why?
If I could be any flavor of ice cream, I would have to go with ol' reliable Peanut Butter Cup. The best of both worlds, chocolate and peanut butter. You can’t go wrong!

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE THING ABOUT DYU?

I would choose chocolate because it is my favorite, and you always know what you’re going to get. You can make it even better by adding chocolate chips, cookie dough, nuts, sprinkles, or anything you would like!

Kaylee's Favorite thing about DYU?
My favorite thing about DYU is the overall commitment to the student experience that is so deeply rooted in every aspect of the university. Faculty, staff, and fellow students go above and beyond to make every day here something special and meaningful.
If you could be any flavor of ice cream, what would you be and why?
If I could be any flavor of ice cream, I would be Perry’s Queen of Hearts. It’s a dark chocolate ice cream with raspberry swirls and fudge filled hearts. I love raspberries and they just work so well with dark chocolate – the best combination out there in my opinion.

IF YOU COULD BE ANY FLAVOR OF ICE CREAM, WHAT WOULD YOU BE AND WHY?
If I could be any ice cream flavor, it would be Salted Caramel. You get both a salty and sweet flavor, which is the best combination out there.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE THING ABOUT DYU?
I love the personal atmosphere provided to students. Applicants and students are treated like part of a large caring family where there is always someone to talk to and answer any questions you might have. The faculty are engaging and are there for assistance whenever needed. The classrooms and labs are outstanding and provide students with access to what their career choice requires.
IF YOU COULD BE ANY FLAVOR OF ICE CREAM, WHAT WOULD YOU BE AND WHY?
Neapolitan - There are 3 different flavors, but they all work well together. I think of it in terms of how we should be as human beings.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE THING ABOUT DYU?
My favorite thing about DYU is the campus! We have beautiful classroom and lab spaces which gives our students access to the highest quality academic experience. I love that D’Youville is continually looking to improve the campus and expand in ways that serve not only our students, but also the community.
IF YOU COULD BE ANY FLAVOR ICE CREAM, WHAT WOULD YOU BE AND WHY?
I would be a soft-serve vanilla and chocolate twist with rainbow sprinkles. A classic you can’t go wrong with. It’s delicious and creamy, with a little crunch from the sprinkles!

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE THING ABOUT DYU?
The campus is breathtaking and so innovative/futuristic! I love the small, tight knit community feel, and I have already loved getting to know so many people within and outside the admissions office.
IF YOU COULD BE ANY FLAVOR ICE CREAM, WHAT WOULD YOU BE AND WHY?
Cookies and crème. Who doesn’t love cookies and crème?! Rather than having plain vanilla ice cream, there is a twist in there with Oreos that make it exciting and fun, while always being a reliable ice cream.
