Winter 2018-19 Edition of Columns Available Online
02/26/2019
For 150 years, SUNY Cortland’s alumni have made their mark in the world.
In the Winter 2018-19 edition of Columns, now available online at RedDragonNetwork.org, we celebrate their accomplishments as well as a century and a half of history.
From Joe Horan ’88, M ’99 and Manny DeJesus ’16 teaming up to empower the City of Syracuse’s youth to Chenoa Shields ’04, M ’07 rescuing dozens of abandoned dogs and to the legacy of friendship and opportunity left by the late Bill Pittorino ’85, we share these stories and more in the pages of Columns.
This edition also includes news on Cortaca Jug 2019 moving to MetLife Stadium as well as Class Notes on the personal and professional lives of your former classmates. The 2017-18 Cortland College Foundation Annual Report has the latest on the impact of SUNY Cortland’s fundraising efforts as well as a list of those who so generously donated to the College over the past year.
