Discovery Communications executive and April 15 Honors Convocation keynote speaker Jocelyn Sokolski Egan ’84 reminded more than 100 of SUNY Oswego’s top scholars of their potential and urged them to follow their respective roads to success, bumpy though they may be.
“Some paths are easier than others; few are level,” said Egan, senior vice president of Discovery Solutions, the Discovery Communications division dedicated to network-wide advertising sales and partnerships.
A former strategist for Gillette, Frito-Lay and Pizza Hut campaigns, Egan stressed the importance of building a strong network to face life’s hurdles. “I urge you to continue to give back to each other — professionally and through service,” added Egan, a member of the School of Business Advisory Board and participant in the Oswego Alumni Association’s NYC Career Connections program as well as the Alumni Sharing Knowledge program.
