SUNY Oswego is a gem of a school. Our campus is beautiful-next to Lake Ontario-and the people are friendly. Our students come from many states e countries, but most are from our surrounding areas and New York City. We have a great cultural program yearly, open to the general public. We have graduated many teachers since the 19th century, fro well-respected teacher education programs. Of course we offer a liberal arts education also, and even engineering now. Sports too, with a great ice hockey arena. Come visit our campus, stroll around our pond, see stunning sunsets, meet a deer, red fox and birds... Praise to thee,Oswego!

Thank you to Will and Piper Wadsworth for being fantastic hosts for our 25th Wedding Anniversary celebration! As the very first "safecation" guests, my husband and I enjoyed the gardens and estate to ourselves! Our hosts were gracious, picked up the dinner we ordered at a local restaurant and also made us breakfast, all while maintaining a safe distance and respectfully wearing masks. (We also chose to mask when in the same room with them). My husband also orchestrated a surprise "drive by" champagne toast, where our friends and family could "swing by" for quick toast and well wishes. The rooms are gorgeous and historic, and we enjoyed a long and quiet morning coffee on the porch overlooking the valley. A delightful place to stay in the best of times - a much needed getaway in the midst of shelter-in-place!
