Oswego, NY – SUNY Oswego is putting on their 10th annual Relay for Life event on April 6th from 6pm to 2am. Coordinator, Tina Cooper, tells us all about the event.

“Historically it has been a event that goes from an evening to a morning. It is representing the change over from dusk to dawn. Talking about throughout the night, relating it back to a person enduring cancer throughout their journey and throughout their fight.” Relay for Life Coordinator Tina Cooper said.

Senior, Riley Synan, has been involved in Relay for Life for 12 years, she shares with us her inspiration to why she continues to help this organization.

“Both my grandparents died of different types of cancer and my mom also got diagnosed with cancer when I was in high school so, we made a team for her after that.” Synan said.

Coordinator Tina Cooper encourages students to come out and get involved in SUNY Oswego’s Relay for Life event.

“Come to this and see what your campus is about and see what it is like to actually be involved on campus with a whole ton of people your age that care about the same thing.” Cooper said.

Oswego, NY  -The Oswego honor theater program has been busy at work, working together to put on, The Good Doctor, written by Neil Simon and Anton Chekhov.

“I play five different characters in the show. I play the writer, Peter, voice, father, and Kuryatin. The main part I play is as a writer. Which is a version of Anton Chekhov and he is thinking of all these different story ideas and the play is constructed of short vignettes.” said Tim Brenner, actor in The Good Doctor.

Anyone that is involved in the theater department and has taken the necessary classes can audition for the student honors show.

“It’s the student honors show. They put one on every year. Where the faculty assesses several students to see if they have any students at the level where they can take on a leading production role.” said Wyatt Gilbert, director of The Good Doctor.
