  • Eduroam Wi-Fi update

    As required by the Wi-Fi certificate vendor, ITS made an important update to the eduroam Wi-Fi network on May 29, 2025. In order to minimize service interruption, an additional one-time step is required by all users. While this step will install a new security certificate on your device, there will be no visible difference in Wi-Fi functionality. The new security certificate will reflect a required change that was made end of the spring semester in the Wi-Fi certificate vendor's name.

    To stay connected to Eduroam (campus Wi-Fi) without issues, run the latest version of JoinNow on your devices. This will get your device ready with the new configuration. If you do not complete this, you may not be able to connect to the eduroam network. If you connect on multiple devices (e.g., your laptop, your phone, etc.) this will need to be done on each device. This utility only needs to be run on Wi-Fi-connected desktops, laptops and mobile devices, but does not need to be run on wired desktops.

    To run JoinNow, download and run the utility here at the link below or go to .

    A few notes: You will need your 网曝黑料 account password to log in. On Windows and Mac computers, a file will be downloaded that you will need to click on to run. Follow the standard eduroam onboarding procedure at:

  • OTP and phishing scams

    Never give your One-Time Password (OTP) to anyone over the phone, no matter who they claim to be. A legitimate institution, like your bank or 网曝黑料, will never call you and ask for your OTP. They already have access to the information they need and use OTPs as a protective measure for you, not for them. Scammers often use sophisticated tactics to create a sense of urgency, pressuring you to share your information. Always remember to hang up and, if you're concerned, contact the institution directly using a number you know is legitimate.

    Any issues or questions can be directed to the Help Desk 607-777-6420.

  • Emergency locking mechanism installation project

    网曝黑料 has initiated a campus-wide project to standardize emergency locking mechanisms on classroom doors. This multi-phase initiative is designed to enhance safety and security across academic spaces.

    The first phase of the project began this summer, focusing on classrooms in the Classroom Wing and Fine Arts Building. Classroom doors have been outfitted with interior door handles that include a red emergency locking button. In the event of an emergency, the red button can be pushed to immediately secure the door from inside the room. To exit or unlock the door, simply turn the interior handle, which will release the lock.

    These buttons are intended to be used only in emergencies to secure a classroom door.

    This important project will continue over the next two semesters to outfit all classrooms across campus with similar locking mechanisms.

  • Next steps in the 网曝黑料 Presidential Search

    From July 6鈥14, 2025, 网曝黑料 welcomed six candidates to the campus for confidential interviews with the Search Committee and seven Representational Groups, as outlined in the June 16 update. The hot, steamy week in July did not quell the spirited engagement of our diverse groups of faculty, staff, students, administrators, alums, community leaders and other supporters of 网曝黑料 in enthusiastically welcoming the candidates and sharing our proud 鈥溚睾诹 Story.鈥

    In advance of the final meeting of the Search Committee, members of the Council not serving on the Search Committee were invited to attend in order to hear the discussions regarding the relative merits of each semi-finalist. That discourse was aided by the hundreds of online feedback surveys from the representational groups; a report from the Faculty Senate Executive Committee; and a summary of the relative strengths and weaknesses of each candidate. After a robust discussion, the Search Committee submitted to the Council a list of five 鈥渁cceptable鈥 candidates to the Council for consideration; one semi-finalist withdrew their application. Before the meeting concluded, a 鈥渟traw poll鈥 was taken which resulted in resounding consensus on the part of the Search Committee in favor of three candidates.

    At a Special Meeting of the 网曝黑料 Council, members carefully weighed the merits of each semi-finalist and unanimously recommended three unranked, consensus finalists to SUNY Chancellor King and the SUNY Board of Trustees for final consideration. The Council expressed confidence that each finalist will uphold our core values and aspirations while guiding 网曝黑料 into our next chapter of growth, innovation and excellence.

    The next phase is currently underway:
    - Final Interviews: The three finalists have been interviewed by Chancellor King and his senior staff and will soon be interviewed by the SUNY Board of Trustees.
    - Final Decision: The SUNY Board of Trustees is vested with the authority to appoint the next president and is expected to make a final selection in early August.

    Stay tuned for further updates.

  • 'In the American Grain: Exploring America through Art, 1919鈥1946' opens Sept. 4

    Join the 网曝黑料 Art Museum for the opening of "In the American Grain: Exploring America through Art, 1919鈥1946" from 5-7 p.m. Sept. 4. The exhibition will run through Dec. 6.

    The two-and-a-half decades between 1919 and 1946 witnessed the development of an American art that sought to capture a country in the midst of transformation. Through celebration and crisis, artists held up a mirror to their fellow citizens, showing their lives, their landscapes and their dreams. "In the American Grain" tells this story through artworks addressing a range of themes, drawn from the rich holdings of the 网曝黑料 Art Museum and Libraries, the Roberson Museum and Science Center and the Art Bridges Collection. In particular, the exhibition acknowledges the generosity of Gil and Deborah Williams, whose donations to the Art Museum are extensively featured here. Together, they reveal how history shaped art during these years, and how artists themselves responded to history in the making. This exhibition is curated by Tom McDonough, professor of art history.

    Support for this project is provided by Art Bridges.

    Also opening in the Museum鈥檚 Lower Galleries are three exhibitions curated by students: "Superposition: Examining Boundaries in East Asian Religious Art," curated by Kate Langsdorf 鈥25; "The Visual Language of Grief," curated by Molly Rudden 鈥25; and "Destabilizing 鈥渢he Brain鈥: Imagining 网曝黑料," curated by Bassie Chin 鈥26.

    - One black-and-white page = one credit
    - One color page = eight credits

    The print allocation is issued by the first day of the fall, summer, spring and winter semesters, and is reset twice a year before the start of the Fall and Spring semesters.

    To help you get the most out of your print credits, ITS will be updating campus printers to default to duplex (double-sided) printing, and will also send out a low print credit email once you fall below 20% of your printing credits.

    To help students maximize their print credits, ITS will update campus printers to default to duplex (double-sided) printing and will also send out a low print credit email once they fall below 20% of their printing credits.

    If students need additional credits for academic requirements, they will be able to submit a request through the new "Printing Credit Request Form." There will be a justification of need and a requirement to watch a brief video on responsible printing.

Speakers and Lectures

  • Fellows Speaker Series presentation: Aug. 27

    Join The Institute for the Advanced Studies in the Humanities (IASH) from noon to 1:30 p.m. Wednesday, Aug. 27, in LN 1106 as Lightning Jay, assistant professor of history, presents, "It Happens Here: Teaching the History of Illiberalism in the United States".

    History and social studies education has long justified its place in the curriculum by appealing to the need to promote and safeguard democracy. Yet, as a rising tide of international illiberalism challenges democracy, there is limited evidence that high school classrooms are providing students the requisite background knowledge to interpret antidemocratic movements. Using the United States and its domestic history of fascist parties as a case study, Jay examines how popular conceptual frameworks for social studies education are ill-equipped to address this content. Reading against the dominant teleological school narrative as well as academic frameworks for controversial history, difficult history and critical whiteness studies, he posits a potential future for social studies education to counter illiberalism by teaching for democracy, teaching democratically and thinking across borders and time.
