President encourages students to use academic resources

12/07/2021 

Dear students,

As we approach the end of this semester, I want to encourage you to continue doing your best work and share with you some resources that may help with your studies.

SUNY Cortland's faculty and staff are here to give you guidance and support. Please do not be afraid to ask for any assistance should you need it.

Consider:

  • Contact your professors or visit during office hours to ask about assignments or how you can best prepare for final exams.
  • Use the Starfish tab in myRedDragon to set up an appointment with your advisor.
  • The Learning Center provides professional and peer tutoring services and online tutoring in the evenings through Nightowl.
  • The Writing Center can help you with your assignments at any point in the writing process. Schedule an appointment through the Academic Resources tab in myRedDragon.

Please also be mindful of your physical and mental health over the next few weeks. Knowing when to take a break for fun and relaxation is important. Learn more about upcoming events through Cortland Connect and @cortlandnites on Instagram.

I also want to remind you that Wegmans Pharmacy is hosting a COVID-19 vaccine booster clinic starting at 11 a.m. on Wednesday, Dec. 8. You may register online for a booster dose, as well as a regular flu shot. This is an important step in keeping you and your loved ones safe and healthy over winter break.

Thank you for all your hard work and dedication throughout this semester. Please reach out for help if you need it - and enjoy yourself - this week and next.

All the best,

Erik J. Bitterbaum

President
