SUNY Oswego Campus Recreation is excited to invite students to two free Open Skate sessions, where all levels of experience are welcome. Students can grab their skates (or rent them) and head to the rink.

Mental health is a campus-wide issue that can affect all students, faculty and staff. The responsibility for campus mental health and well-being does not rest with any single department. Rather, services, programs and resources should be infused throughout all aspects of SUNY Oswego to create a culture of care on campus.

SUNY has invested over $24 million in Federal American Rescue Plan funds to expand and support student mental health and wellness services and enhance campus resources. SUNY Oswego is fully vested in this initiative at the campus level. 

The Laker men's and women's hockey teams will host Military Appreciation Games on consecutive Saturdays, Nov. 5 and 12, respectively, and ask for photos of military members who have impacted the lives of members of the community.

Photos would be displayed on the jumbotron during the men's hockey game vs. Potsdam at 7 p.m. Nov. 5, and the women's hockey game at 3 p.m. on Nov. 12 vs. Morrisville, both in the Deborah F. Stanley Arena and Convocation Hall. 

A vibrant, productive learning environment requires a richness in the variety of voices and life experiences that are represented among everybody. The goal of SUNY Oswego is to nurture members’ abilities and capacities for appreciation of living and working together in a diverse learning environment.
