The SUNY Oswego Pre-Veterinary Medicine Club is hosting a drive to collect supplies for the animals of the Oswego County Humane Society (OCHS).

The club invites students, staff and members of the community to donate supplies including pet food, litter, treats, toys and cleaning supplies through Thursday, April 21. Cash donations, as well as checks (made out to Oswego County Humane Society or OCHS), are also welcomed.

University Police will remind members of the campus community of the importance of using seatbelts with a "Click It or Ticket" campaign between now and May 1.

The department regularly takes part in a spring traffic enforcement and awareness campaign, this year deciding to focus on the use of seatbelts for safety purposes. 

The SUNY Oswego State Employees Federated Appeal (SEFA) Committee once again will partner with the Oswego Bookmobile for the second annual children’s book drive.

Their hard work can be seen through educational programs, community service projects, athletic events, guest speakers and a variety of other ways.
