SOUL VOICES!

I couldn't be more proud to be manager of this talented group on campus. I am so inspired by every individual in the group and it was an honor to spend my 3rd semester with them.

DJ Fresh Direct

Dylan McDougle aka "DJ Fresh Direct" is one of the few exceptions of students who leave college and make a name for themselves. Dylan attended Purchase Fall 09 undeclared with hopes of being in the Music Production program. After leaving shortly in Winter 09, he was determined to pursue his goal of becoming an established DJ and producer.

Dylan already had his feet wet in the music scene of NYC. He started to DJ for parties and clubs as a Junior in high school. He became inspired when coming across Mark Ronson, a famous producer and wanted to learn more about production. His latest and most impressive project is his mixing and production for hip hop artist, Zak! Dylan is always keeping his fans up to date with performances and exciting news on his twitter and facebook.

Kristen Volpone

A literature major here at Purchase, you would never believe the hidden talents this fascinating student posses! She chose Lit because it came natural to her. However, her real dream is in jewelry design. Kristen got started making jewelry as a youngster, but other interests such as drumming and working with watercolors quickly became a distraction. She picked up jewelry design again freshman year of college and attended Jewelry Comprehension summer after her sophomore year. She has recently been offered an amazing opportunity to display her jewelry in the store front of free people where buyers will test her jewelry designs to potentially sell to the company on a larger scale. Kristen plans on attending FIT after graduating Purchase to study Jewelry Design. Check out some of her work!

Junior Photo Show

Colleen Logan- Junior Photo Major

November 10th was the Junior photo show  featuring some of Purchases most talented students! Walking through the Visual Arts hall, I was overwhelmed by "eye candy" at every angle. The mood was set with incredible visuals, great friends, delicious food, and live music performed by students in the Music Conservatory. If you didn't come out, you missed one hell of a time! The exhibit will be up not too much longer, and I highly recommend you take a little visit!
