Jazzman's Employees Helping Hard Working Students Get Through Their Day

Ryan Thorbjornsen - Oneonta, NY.

Jazzman’s Café & Bakery has been helping students make it through their strenuous work weeks for a long time now. It is located in the library on the SUNY Oneonta campus, making smooth, rich, coffee and artfully baked goods easily accessible for hard-working students. Jazzman's offers a wide menu that you'll find at no other specialty coffee house. You can find bakery classics alongside the latest in eclectic, casual far, freshly prepared on site and affordably priced for kids in college.

Jazzman's also offers the latest in sandwiches, hot-pressed panini's, fresh soups and garden salads. Plus it has a full array of cool blended coffee drinks, real fruit smoothies, and calming Republic of Tea beverages. Jazzman's is the perfect spot for students to get a hearty lunch or a re-energizing snack.

The employees working at Jazzman’s certainly understand the grind that students go through to get through the week, because they are students themselves. That is why they try to stay in high spirits and maintain a great attitude throughout their shifts.

“Being a student, I understand that some weeks can be really tough. Sometimes just one person helping you out or being nice can make your day. That’s what I try to accomplish when I’m working. Sometimes a kid just needs a laugh or to have a nice conversation to help him or her get through the day,” Kelsey Schneider, a SUNY Oneonta student and employee said.

The location of Jazzman’s definitely doesn’t hurt. It is located in the library so students that are working don’t have to go far to take a little break. They can step away from reality and step right into Jazzman’s. Whether they need a little pick-me-up with a delicious coffee or refuel with baked goods and fresh sandwiches, Jazzman’s has it covered.

“We’ve got everything a student could need. If they’re tired I can make them a nice coffee and if they’re hungry, we got all sorts of sandwiches and snacks they can get,” Becky Schmidtt, a SUNY Oneonta student and employee said.

“It’s nice how we’re in the library. Students that are studying don’t even need to leave to get a little snack or just escape from the stress. I know that I’m constantly stressing the amount of work I have to do some days, so it’s nice to have the opportunity to help some people out,” Schmidtt added.

Jazzman’s isn’t just a spot where you take your food and drinks and be on your way. There are confortable couches and chairs where students can simply relax for a little while and forget about all the work. Students can meet with friends, sit and chat, and enjoy what Jazzman’s has to offer together.

Then when their study break is complete, they can open up the doors and conveniently be right back in the library.

“I love coming here. I’m always here working in the library and it’s nice to have a place where I can grab a quick coffee. The best part is, I don’t even have to leave. I can just take a 10 second walk to Jazzman’s and avoid the weather that we all know Oneonta can bring us. And the people who work here are great. They are always happy and smiling, and can even help change a bad mood on some days” Rachel Mangus, a SUNY Oneonta student said.


The employees at Jazzman’s take pride in the work and know who they’re dealing with. Students have the ability to understand and sympathize with other students. That is what people like Schneider and Schmidtt are able to do and with their help, the students at Oneonta can make it through their day just a little easier.
