Dear Members of the SUNY Oswego Community,

Following a competitive national search, I am excited to announce that Lynn Braun has been selected to serve as SUNY Oswego’s Director of Counseling Services. In this leadership role within the Division of Student Affairs, Braun will serve as a champion for the student experience working to advance mental health services, resources and systems at SUNY Oswego to support student success.

On Jan. 11 from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m., the Campus Technology Services (CTS) Help Desk self-service ticketing system will be configured to use multi-factor authentication (MFA). During this time frame, logins to self-service may be intermittent or unavailable.  

Members of the campus community with new goals to start the new year are invited to a special free virtual "New Year, New You" lunch and learn from 12:30 to 1:30 p.m. on Tuesday, Jan. 24.

SUNY Oswego’s Office of Business and Community Relations sponsors this workshop to help people achieve their New Year goals, as organizers want to see colleagues grow personally and professionally. The event is intended to help people start the new year off right by learning proven methods to create healthy habits.

The 2023 schedule for the Campus Confidential Burn Run has been decided and dates are listed below:

Shuttle buses from the Syracuse (Hancock International) Airport and the Regional Transportation Center (RTC) will operate on Sunday, Jan. 22 for students needing transportation back to SUNY Oswego's main campus.

The start of a new year could be a time to set or enhance your retirement goals.

The SUNY Optional Retirement Program (ORP) and 403(b)/457(b) authorized investment providers are prepared to assist and speak with employees about retirement planning for those enrolled in these SUNY/NYS Benefits.

Campus Technology Services (CTS) will perform network maintenance next week that will affect network connections in Park Hall. 

Network maintenance will take place according to the following schedule:

• Basement and first floors on Jan. 10 from 1 to 6 p.m.
• Second and third floors on Jan. 11 from 1 to 6 p.m.

During these times:

• Wired and wireless network connections and phone service will be unavailable.

In fall 2022, Apple released macOS Ventura (macOS 13), its newest operating system. Campus Technology Services has been testing its compatibility with various campus applications and services.

At this point, faculty and staff can choose to upgrade to Ventura. Before doing so, please be aware of the following:
