OSWEGO — State Senator Patty Ritchie announced she has helped secure $3 million in special funding to be divided between SUNY Canton and SUNY Oswego for what she termed “much needed additions and upgrades.”
At SUNY Oswego, $1 million in funding will be used to construct three “high-tech” classrooms in the school of education with the goal of familiarizing teachers with new types of technology to enhance learning, according to a news release from Ritchie’s office. Also, $500,000 in funding will be used to upgrade the college’s theater, which the public also utilizes.
SUNY Canton will allocate $1 million in funding for the rehabilitation of its dining center to make it handicapped accessible and host future community events. And, $500,000 will go toward expanding the college’s nursing program, which recently had to cut its number of nursing students because of a lack of hospital internships in the area, the release said. The expansion will allow SUNY Canton to offer such internships on campus.
