Have fun and be safe during Cortaca Jug week

11/07/2022

Dear campus community,

This is a very exciting week to be a Red Dragon. As you know, the Cortaca Jug football game will be played at noon on Saturday at Yankee Stadium.

To our students who are traveling for the game, have fun! I am thrilled that you get to experience a wonderful part of SUNY Cortland tradition in such an iconic venue. Please be safe on your journey to the game and be mindful of your responsibilities as a representative of the university. Be smart, cheer on your classmates and show the rest of the country what SUNY Cortland is all about.

I also encourage students choosing to stay in Cortland to celebrate responsibly and be considerate of our neighbors in the community. You may consider joining the watch party in Corey Union Function Room on game day and grabbing free pizza and chicken wings.

Other events happening this week include:

Cortaca pep rally, tonight, 6 to 8 p.m., Corey Union steps. Join us for performances by student groups, raffles, food and more.
Cortaca hat giveaway, Tuesday, 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m., Corey Union lobby. Student Government Association and the Student Alumni Association are giving away 500 hats on a first-come, first-served basis.
Cortaca Carnival, Thursday, 6 to 8 p.m., Corey Union Function Room. Bring your friends to have fun with a photo booth, inflatables and more.

A full list of events is available online.

We are so fortunate to be able to enjoy a rivalry like the Cortaca Jug. Please show your school spirit, have fun and do so with respect for SUNY Cortland and our community.

Go Cortland! Beat Ithaca!

All the best,

Erik J. Bitterbaum

President
