Sustainability Week, Oct. 18 to 23, invites students, faculty and staff to show their Laker pride by participating in sustainable efforts across our campus with a week full of programs and events that include composting, hiking, seed saving, campus cleanups, tree planting and a fall festival.

Events will include:

The members of Her Campus will host a writing workshop at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 12, in 306 Marano Campus Center. 

Jenna Wilson, the senior editor of the Oswego chapeter of the publicaton, will lead a presentation about how to write both for class and publication, as well as giving general tips and tricks to improve attendees' writing. 

Her Campus is an online international magazine for college women with chapters in colleges all over the world including one in Oswego for the past 10 years. 

In lieu of a traditional Family and Friends Weekend, the college community is embracing a more flexible and inclusive model which welcomes families to visit their current students any weekend and/or weekday during the academic semester.

Later this month begins the 20th annual State Employees Federated Appeal (SEFA) United Way Bake Off, and organizers invite faculty and staff members to consider baking a dessert to help raise money for this popular and tasty campaign.  

In addition to traditional entries, SEFA encourages bakers to consider making special items like those that are gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan and sugar-free to expand the number of tasters who can enjoy this fundraiser.

October is National Cyber Security Awareness Month, and Campus Technology Services would like to remind you of the importance of your online security. 

The college's Institute for Global Engagement (IGE) has three events scheduled on Tuesday, Oct. 12, to better introduce the campus to the world community as well as in support of its Year of First Nations theme for 2021-22.

The members of Her Campus invite members of the SUNY Oswego community to join them for some fall festivities from 1 to 3 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 9, at nearby Ontario Orchards.

Organizers are setting up some apple picking and a picnic lunch at the orchard. Participants are invited to bring their own snacks and drinks.

SUNY Oswego's Admissions Office is looking for campus tour guides to welcome and show future Lakers and their families around campus.

This is a paid position once a tour guide passes their evaluation. They work with ongoing information sessions as well as large-scale open house events.

As Oswego’s First LEAP (Learning, Engagements and Academic Pursuits) Coalition for First-Generation College Student Support prepares to celebrate National First Generation Student Day on Monday, Nov. 8, organizers seek campus community volunteers to help.

Approximately one third of SUNY Oswego students identify as first-generation college students, as do many SUNY Oswego employees who were the first in their family to earn a higher-education degree.
