Around the SUNY Oswego campus

SUNY Chancellor John B. King Jr. (top, third from right) visited the SUNY Oswego campus on April 21 to meet students, faculty and staff, and learn more about the university's programs and facilities. His favorite part seemed to be interacting with SUNY Oswego sutdents, including those he posed for a selfie with here along with Officer in Charge Mary C. Toale.
