Re:       Funding Available for Increasing Student Success

I am writing you today to alert you to funding that is available to your department for implementing strategies related to increasing student success at SUNY Oswego.  The focus of our funding opportunities is on increasing student success through the classes and class-related activities that they experience in their first year at Oswego.  The funding guidelines, therefore, are focused on improvement in 100-level courses and in lower division general education courses.

Please review the guidelines for requesting funding and submit your proposal by November 12.

Thank you for your continuing efforts to provide the best possible education experiences for our students at Oswego.
