Sutliff is one of only three recipients from a network of 190 colleges and universities attended by On Point students. Virginia Donohue, On Point’s Executive Director, says of Sutliff, “As a ‘Campus Angel’ she has manifested great compassion and service to low-income and first generation college students. She has also served as a consistent and dedicated liaison to our counseling staff, helping us to resolve issues of our students that impede their success.”

Sutliff is a 1996 recipient of the SUNY Chancellor’s Award for Excellence in Professional Service. She holds an A.A.S. degree from Fulton-Montgomery Community College, B.B.A. from Siena College and M.S. in Business with a concentration in Human Resources Management from SUNYIT.
