Before gathering around the Thanksgiving table to eat some delicious turkey and mashed potatoes, we asked the Endicott community what they’re most thankful for this holiday season. From being a Gull to the comfort of family and friends, students, faculty, and staff noted their gratitude. 

Marianne Barker, MSN, RN, CHSE, CNE, Assistant Professor of Nursing 

I am most grateful for my husband of 32 years. A hardworking, wonderful father, and just an all-around great guy!

Amrita Kumar ’26, digital media major 

This upcoming holiday season, I am most grateful for my two roommates. They're incredibly supportive, genuine, and authentic people who are always there for me in a time of need and can always make me smile no matter what. I love coming home to them every single day and being around them, as they truly make my life 10x better.

Samuel Alexander, Associate Professor of English and Department Lead for the Humanities

As the pandemic recedes from view and we are able to gather together again, there is so much to be grateful for: seeing my students' faces, eating in the Callahan, and live theater! But lately, I have been thinking about the things that sustained me as a teacher through the darkest days of the last two years and I find myself increasingly grateful for my colleagues. Endicott has a way of recruiting people who are brilliant and capable but also deeply committed to their students—and fun! Not many people get to work every day with friends whom they like and respect. I do, and I am immensely grateful for that opportunity.

I’m thankful for my husband, family, and lifelong friends who support me on the daily. I’m thankful especially for my son and daughter who bring me more joy than they could ever imagine and whom I am so proud of each day. I’m thankful for a job that has become a second home for me and the many students whom I have had the pleasure of getting to know over my nearly 24 years in this amazing community and that I had the honor of being a part of their college experiences.

Timothy Byram, Head Coach, Women’s Volleyball/Coordinator of Transportation and Compliance

Big picture, I think about my family, and how I’m lucky to have them and everything sort of flows from that connection.
