Located in the heart of campus, just steps away from the Marano Campus Center and Cooper Fitness and Dining, lies the nine floor building Funnelle Hall.

Built in 1965, Funnelle is home to over 400 SUNY Oswego students.

SUNY Oswego announced they will be doing major renovations to the building, starting at the beginning of the Spring 2020 semester. Students living in Funnelle Hall will need to relocate once construction is started.

Renovations will be finished for the 2020 Fall semester.

According to Funnelle Hall RA Charlie Chapman, he doesn’t see the construction being an issue for students. 

“I don’t think it will be too hard on them. They’ll probably just move out, they’ll probably have the same roommate. They’ll just be somewhere else, depending on where they have classes it might be a further walk but it should be fine,” said Chapman.

Student Jason Lin has aspirations about what the renovations will consist of.

“I think for Funnelle Hall they should renovate the kitchen area, and the lounges to make them more modern and more spacious for people to hang out in,” said Lin.

For the students moving to new dorms, once the renovations are done they will likely be able to relocate back to Funnelle, and enjoy its updates.

This project is expected to be a great improvement for SUNY Oswego, and will surely put the “fun” in Funnelle.
