If you could work in any other UB job or department for a day, what would it be?

Send your response to ub-word-of-mouth@buffalo.edu and we’ll publish the responses we receive in the next online UB Reporter.

  • I’d like to be the guy who throws the T-shirts up to the crowd at a football game. That looks like fun. As long as it’s only for a day. I doubt it pays very well.

    Director of Development

  • This is easy. I’d love to work in the Libraries, browsing, learning and hunting down obscure information.

    Ann Whitcher
    Senior Editor, UB Today
    University Communications

  • Either a Lockwood or Capen librarian, or a backstage staff assistant at the Center for the Arts. Both jobs have access to the mysterious places where knowledge is housed. Who wouldn’t want to have those keys?

    Assistant Professor

Grounds! I love the riding mowers, and they have some neat ones that go very fast. I wouldn't mind scooting around campus on a bright sunny day to cut the lawn.

I would like to be the Director of Marketing in Athletics . How fun would it be to promote the Bulls during this time of great success?

The people who get to work in the Biomed Buidling with the Cadavers have the coolest job!

The team that plants and maintains UB's garden spaces does a great job. As a gardener, I would love to spend a day with them.
