Rochester Reception Canceled
Aug 22 @ 01:30 – Aug 22 @ 03:30

We need to cancel the Alumni Association’s event on Tuesday evening. President Stenger has been summoned by the Governor to present a status report on the Southern Tier Regional Economic Development Council in Albany and then attend a private reception at the Governor’s mansion.

The Alumni Association will reschedule another event at a future date. Unfortunately, it won’t be before our incoming students return to campus. We sincerely apologize on behalf of President Stenger.
