Bulletin for July 12, 2006

REMINDER ON SUBMITTING PAPERS TO ANTI-PLAGIARISM SERVICES
If you are using an anti-plagiarism service such as www.turnitin.com, you must remove the students name and assign a code name to each paper you submit. The code name must not be the students ID number or any part there of and should only be known to you. Using the students name or ID number is a violation of the students FERPA rights because you are releasing personally identifiable information without his/her written consent. If you have any questions on FERPA please contact Bill Grau, College Registrar at x3216 or via e-mail at graufw@oneonta.edu.

EQUIPMENT MOVEMENTS
Faculty and staff should be aware that the College is required by the State Comptroller to maintain accountability for its equipment at all times. This means that current records must be maintained regarding the location of all equipment with an original acquisition cost of $1,500 or greater. We continue to experience particular difficulty with control of computers and related equipment; this equipment is often moved between buildings and departments without appropriate notification to the Property Management Office. This unnecessarily complicates the annual reinventory process (for the Departments involved and for Property Control) and jeopardizes the otherwise positive outcome the campus would normally achieve upon audit. When equipment movement has or will take place, please either: (1) initiate an EQUIPMENT MOVEMENT REQUEST so that college service personnel can carry out and document the move, or (2) notify the Property Management office in writing at Milne Library, Room B217 ( or email: frankljl@oneonta.edu) providing the SUNY-Oneonta decal number, manufacturer's serial number, previous and new locations. Your cooperation will be greatly appreciated. For further information, please contact Janet Frankl at x3227.

COLLEGE HOSTING SUMMER MUSIC FESTIVAL & PERFORMANCES
The College is hosting the New York Summer Music Festival for the first time this year. The festival, which started on Monday, June 25 and will run to Saturday, August 5, attracts talented young musicians from around the world to study with top music faculty and performers. The Festival at SUNY-Oneonta presents students a nurturing atmosphere in which they can experience the highest level of musical training. Areas of study for students, who range in age from 10 to 25, include orchestra, band, choral ensembles, original musical theater projects, composition, and jazz. Classes are also offered in beginning piano and beginning guitar as well as supplemental areas such as music history, theory, computer technology in music, filmmaking, and jazz improvisation. Students can also take private lessons for all major and secondary instruments, voice, and composition. Some of the finest musicians and teachers in the world will visit the festival to host master classes and clinics. Distinguished guests include renowned violinists Pamela Frank, Ida Kavafian, and Aaron Rosand; Richard Woodhams, principal oboe of the Philadelphia Orchestra; Anthony McGill, principal clarinet of the Metropolitan Opera Orchestra; Jeanne Baxtresser, former principal flute of the New York Philharmonic; Peter Bond of the Metropolitan Opera Orchestra trumpet section; Harold Robinson, principal bass of the Philadelphia Orchestra; and Peter Wiley of the Guarneri String Quartet. Faculty come from the prestigious Curtis, Juilliard, and Manhattan Schools of Music, among many others. The Festival offers complimentary, professional-quality student performances to the entire Oneonta community and the surrounding region, and has more than 50 different performing ensembles and classes, which collectively perform nearly 30 weekly/biweekly concerts, allowing students the opportunity to learn in both classrooms and concert halls. The festival's three bands, three orchestras, and four choirs are complimented by four jazz ensembles, several chamber ensembles, professional-level piano instruction, and a unique creative program in which students are taught the basics of filmmaking, acting techniques, and even how to write and stage their own original songs, music, and musical theater shows. Robert Barstow, Music Department Chair, serves as Chairman of the Board of the Festival. More information about the festival and performances is available from the Festival's Director of Communications, Keisuke Hoashi, at (310) 293-1831.
