graduate school. Many students are making the most of this aspect of the learner-centered campus.
SUNY Oswego professors actively seek out and pursue research opportunites outside the classroom. They know that doing so not only benefits what they can teach their students, but can bring greater discoveries and understanding to the world as a whole.
SUNY Oswego professors don't just know their subjects ... many of them wrote the book. Literally.

The 2005-2006 Arts and Psycholology series was an interdisciplinary exploration of creativity and perception. A multitude of events, including lectures, workshops, films and performances, were brought to the SUNY Oswego campus in an effort to address the common theme of artistic expression and its relationship with the human brain.
Highlights included a lecture by "The Speed of Dark" author Elizabeth Moon, a student-led production of the Pulitzer Prize-winning play "Proof" and an exhibition of work by six autistic artists. Keynote Speaker Dr. Oliver Sacks, author of the novel "Awakenings," presented his theories on consciousness and creativity.
In addition, a number of films and workshops were held throughout the academic year, and presenters visited several SUNY Oswego classrooms to bring their perspectives into the college's academic life.
In an attempt to integrate the series with SUNY Oswego curriculum, many professors required students to attend certain events. For those students with scheduling conflicts, Penfield Library set up a reserve section for materials related to Arts and Psychology. These materials included scripts, books and videotaped recordings of lectures ... and are marked with an asterisk (*) below.
