"More than a return on my investment" - 埃里卡·贝内特,2000年

“I had a good experience at Utica College. I had great professors who were accessible. I was involved in campus activities. If I had gone to a larger university, I may not have had those opportunities.”
Ericka Bennett ‘00 doesn’t take for granted the fact that she’s part of the institution credited with establishing the model for today’s multidisciplinary approach to cancer care.
Founded in 1898 as the nation’s first cancer center, Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center has been serving its community for more than 120 years, and as Associate General Counsel, the Utica College alum is proud to play a role within their success.
“I really am proud to be a part of this institute. It’s very meaningful to me,” Bennett says. 罗斯威尔公园提出, not only inpatient or outpatient cancer treatment, but there's also a very large research component at the Institute where there are people working full-time to develop cures for cancer. I’m passionate about working here because I feel like I can be a part of that.”
Why might a hospital need an attorney?
“如果你仔细想想, 提供的每一项服务, everything that comes into the hospital usually requires an agreement. And agreements that I work on are research-based and also clinical trial agreements, in which we're able to offer new medicines that maybe haven’t yet made it to the marketplace to people who really need them, who may not have any other treatment options.”
What was your experience at Utica College like?
“I had a good experience at Utica College. I had great professors who were accessible. I was involved in campus activities. If I had gone to a larger university, I may not have had those opportunities.”
How did it prepare you for what you’re doing today?
“I think my experience at Utica College prepared me, 在很多方面, to work in a professional environment and provided me with the mentorship and the soft skills. They’ve done more for me than I could’ve paid for, 四年的学费, 所以肯定是, I’ve gotten more than a return on my investment.”
是什么让你保持动力?
“我真的很喜欢我的工作. 每个人都有艰难的日子. 这是不可避免的, but knowing that I’m part of a mission to help people who have been affected by cancer, that makes every hard day easier. I appreciate the people that I work with. They are awesome and they are intelligent and they are passionate about the fight against cancer and, 你知道, my role is small but I appreciate being part of the team.”
