The fall 2020 round of the Faculty Scholarly and Creative Activity Grant application/review process has concluded, with three proposals approved for a combined total of more than $5,200 in funding.

Members of the Scholarly and Creative Activity Committee reviewed all the proposals and ultimately approved the following for funding via Provost Scott Furlong:

State University of New York Chancellor Jim Malatras and Civil Service Employees Association (CSEA) President Mary E. Sullivan announced on Friday (Nov. 27) an extension on an agreement to conduct free, mandatory testing for CSEA-represented employees at SUNY state-operated colleges, universities, and hospitals. The memorandum of understanding follows a similar arrangement last week between SUNY and United University Professions (UUP) for represented employees.

The Educational Opportunity Program (EOP) is currently accepting applications for those students interested in pursuing a Peer Leader position for the 2021 EOP Summer Program.
