Ray Agnew Award

This award is presented in honor of long-time Vice President of Development F. Raymond Agnew, to thank him for his years of service to the College. Ray was an all-around member of the Paul Smith's Community, and the award given in his name is intended for a student who is a model Smitty, who shows love for the college through their actions.

At Paul Smith's College, everyone knows this person. She is everywhere, doing everything. Whether she is zooming by on her skateboard, sharing her art and poetry, or offering a pleasant greeting on a dreary day, it is always a pleasure to be in her presence.

It is a pleasure to announce that this year's Ray Agnew Award goes to a dual-major in Environmental Studies & Communications (with a minor in in Craft Beer Studies), from West Edmeston, NY, Ariah Mitchell.
