Like many alumni before him, SUNY Potsdam was a launch pad to success for Philip Paige, a 2015 SUNY Potsdam graduate from The School of Arts and Sciences. Paige ’15, of Madrid, has quickly launched a dynamic professional career working for the St. Lawrence County government. Just two weeks after graduating from SUNY Potsdam with a bachelor’s degree in politics and history, he entered an accelerated master’s degree program at Syracuse University’s Maxwell School. One year later he graduated with his master’s degree in public administration.
