Major: 
Music
Minor: 
Film Studies

I'm a pretty reserved person at first, but if you really get to know me then you will see I'm actually pretty ridiculous. I take my school work seriously because I think that you have to do well in school in order to get somewhere. I have big dreams that I know will come true one day. I plan to travel the world one day and eat food from all over the world, because I love some good food.


Kalei Buczek `14

Hometown:

At St. Lawrence

Major: 
Philosophy and Psychology

Hello! My name is Kalei Buczek, I am from Utica, NY, more generally the upstate region. I love to be outside and enjoy hiking and kayaking. I also love meeting new people and conversing, I tend to ramble. I am majoring in Psychology because I love to help people, part of the reason I am a CA. I am generally down to earth and like to have a good time. I am really excited for this upcoming semester and all the new experiences/friends to be had.

When school isn't on my mind I try to relax, but usually I am working a retail job at my local mall. In my spare time I love being outside, doing various activities such as hiking, kayaking, boating, or fishing among other things. I love to read and have been trying to read as many "fun" books as possible this summer before school and I have to read for class. One of my ongoing hobbies I've had is horseback riding, however recently I haven't had the time, since it is a very big commitment.

As a new CA, I am most looking forward to getting to know my residents! As much as I am also excited for the other tasks that are included in my duties as a CA, I am most looking forward to being someone for my residents to look to, not only for help, but also as a friend. It will be really interesting to get to know a whole other group of people and their interests and backgrounds.

I am a northern New York girl, growing up just 35 minutes in scenic Gouverneur, where the main attraction is the giant lifesaver in the park. My whole life I have been involved in music and theater, and am proud to say I am a part of the Laurentian Singers on campus. When school isn’t on my mind I like to paint! My goal in life is to turn history- a subject stereotyped in grade school as a snooze fest-to something exciting for students to learn about.

As a CA, I am looking forward to being able to build and get to know my community, and help them out with any problems they may face along their way as first year.
