This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Buff State chapter.

Dr. Chase is the Assistant Dean of the School of Arts and Humanities. He also serves as a professor, teaching a couple of courses in the Theatre Department. Dr. Chase is a wonderful and well-respected person at Buffalo State. We are so grateful he took the time to answer some questions for us!

 

HC Buff State: Why did you choose to work at Buffalo State? 

Dr. Chase: The opportunity to work at Buffalo State arose when I was a graduate student, and further opportunities here arose subsequently, which kept me here.

​HC Buff State: What’s the most challenging aspect of your job? 

Dr. Chase: Finding the time to finish everything I have to do.

​HC Buff State: What’s the most rewarding part of your job?

Dr. Chase: Seeing the success of our students.

​HC Buff State: What advice would you give to current/incoming students?

Dr. Chase: Become as involved as you can. Learn from everything you do. Don’t treat your education like a check list of required tasks, but as a varied mix of enriching opportunities. This plan will invite success.

​HC Buff State: What has been your favorite class to teach here?

Dr. Chase: My current class is almost always my favorite class. At the moment, it is Theater History I: Antiquity to the Baroque.  The students are bright, engaged, and enthusiastic.  Preparing for and going to my class is a pleasure for me.

She is a true born and raised Buffalo girl, but absolutely loves to travel. Fall semester of her Junior year Maria was lucky enough to study abroad at Regent's University London in England to further her fashion studies. In her spare time Maria enjoys doing quite a bit! Sleep is usually one of her most enjoyable activities to participate in (heehee), but she also enjoys photography, anything fashion related, hanging out with her friends, driving her beloved F.150 named Duke or anything fun in general! Be sure to look for some of the snapshots this tall blonde will be posting here on Buff State's Her Campus page!!
