SUNY Oswego's student-run literary journal The Great Lake Review opens its submissions for all students -- and reminds all that their deadline is tonight.

The month of October is recognized as National Italian Heritage Month. In 1989, Congress recognized and President George H.W. Bush signed through Proclamation 6045 that the month of October would be recognized as the month to observe the Italian American heritage and culture. 

The month of October was chosen at the time to overlap with Columbus Day which recognizes Christopher Columbus. Columbus is recognized as Italian because he was born in Genoa, Italy.  

LGBTQ+ History Month, not to be mistaken with the Pride observance in June, is a month-long celebration of the history of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer community and the importance of civil rights movements in the pursuit of LGBTQ+ rights. The observance was founded in 1994 by Rodney Wilson, a former history teacher at a Missouri high school.

Following its emergence, LGBTQ+ History Month was added to the list of commemorative months in a resolution forwarded by the General Assembly of the National Education Association in 1995.
