Oswego, NY- Oswego State’s faculty led study abroad courses will have the opportunity to expand.  The school has announced they will be accepting new proposals from faculty who wish to expand the program. Oswego State is already considered to have one of the top study abroad programs in the country.

Director of Global and International Studies Lisa Glidden has taught multiple study abroad courses including “Sustainable Cuba,” a program where students were able to travel to Cuba over winter break.  She says she enjoys teaching these courses and that they can even lead to potential internships.

“I teach another course that goes to Ecuador… I actually have a student going and doing an internship in the fall semester,” Glidden said.
With the efforts of Oswego State’s faculty and administrators, more courses may be available in the future.

OSWEGO, N.Y.– Low temperatures are continuing to sweep the area, putting an end to the mild Fall.

All of Western New York and parts of Central New York were under flood watches and warnings this past week. Flash freezes in Jefferson and Oswego County are a growing concern as snow shows up in the forecast along with dropping temperatures.

Forecasters at the National Weather Service said “a flash freeze is possible, meaning wet road surfaces may quickly turn to black ice,” and potential for snow and ice may result in dangerous travel conditions.

Accuweather.com had issued a Wind Advisory along the Lake Ontario shoreline this past week, and now warns that progressively colder air will unleash rounds of lake-effect snow from the Upper Midwest to the interior Northeast next week. Travel could be difficult for students leaving the Oswego campus to go home for Thanksgiving.
