fill out a course audit request, obtain the professor’s signature, and
pay any applicable audit fees. Parent/Guardian signatures are also

visit to a doctor’s office or a hospital or a hospital-based facility
that might include lab work that is sent to a separate lab facility,
enrollees are STRONGLY encouraged to contact their health care provider,
determine what lab facilities will be used and then verify with the

CONGRATULATIONS
Congratulations to the College on being named to the 2007 “100 Best Values in Public Colleges” by Kiplinger's magazine in its February 2007 issue. This marks the first appearance by SUNY-Oneonta in Kiplinger's nationwide rankings of the top 100 public colleges and universities that "combine outstanding value with a first-class education." Using national data provided by Peterson's/Nelnet, Kiplinger's selects colleges and universities based on measures of academic quality including the percentage of 2005-06 freshmen scoring 600 or higher on the verbal and math components of the SAT, admission and retention rates, student-faculty ratios, and four- and six-year graduation rates. The magazine then ranks the top 100 based on costs and financial aid. Kiplinger's is the third magazine to give national recognition to the College at Oneonta in recent months. In August, U.S. News and World Report ranked the College in the top tier in its rankings of "America's Best Colleges 2007." In September, CosmoGirl magazine named the College at Oneonta as one of the 50 best colleges in the United States.
Congratulations to Jeremy Wall, Music, on his nomination for another Grammy as a founding member of the jazz group Spyro Gyra. The group received its seventh Grammy nomination for Best Pop Instrumental Album when the nominations were announced in early December 2006. Jeremy is the composer of the song "The Lowdown," a featured radio hit on Spyro Gyra's album entitled "Wrapped in a Dream." The song was performed on campus by the College's Funk Band at last year's Homecoming Concert in October. Spyro Gyra, one of the most successful bands in jazz history, has a platinum record and two gold records among its 27 releases. Jeremy Wall is a pianist, composer, and producer for Spyro Gyra. He received a Grammy nomination for Best Pop Instrumental Song in 1992 for his composition "Shakedown." He has recorded extensively as producer, keyboardist, composer, and arranger in all genres of music, having released over 70 of his own compositions.
Congratulations to the new inductees of the Oneonta Chapter of “PSI CHI, the National Honors Society in Psychology. The Psychology Department is proud to announce its inductees are as follows: Stephanie Antonucci, Jennifer Bliss, Michael Chan, Richard Calliendo, Valerie England, Jennifer Esner, Emily Gundlach, Alexis Gunipero, Jenna Graser, Mae Harvey, Lauren Howe, Leanne Krause, Emily Kellogg, Krysten Kellman, Deidre Liddle, Peter Lucchio, Samantha Marcinka, Tiffany Mellor, Katelyn Murray, Catherine Papa, Michele Passonno, Karen Prior, Jessica Ross, Robert Scanlon, Alyssa Sorrentino, Brittany Tretiak, Katharine Warren, and Binnie Williams.

CONGRATULATION TO ALL! Dr. Lawrence T. Guzy serves as the Adviser. The Induction Ceremony was held at the Brook’s House of Barbeque Banquet Room.
Congratulations to the Catskill Symphony Orchestra on receiving a Grant of $30,000 from The New York State Music Fund for its March 24 Cabaret concert, “A Tribute to American Music: Folk, Gershwin, Bernstein and Sousa.” The CSO will use its grant to offset costs for a cabaret concert that will feature the Susquehanna String Band playing such folk songs as “Arkansas Traveler” and “Turkey in the Straw” and accompanied by the Orchestra. In addition, the Orchestra, under the direction of Charles Schneider, will perform Gershwin’s “An American in Paris” and “Preludes,” Bernstein’s Overture to “Candide” and dances from “West Side Story.” The concert will end with Sousa’s “The Stars and Stripes Forever,” conducted by the winner of that evening’s “Conductor’s Raffle.” The grant makes possible 100 free tickets to be distributed to those for whom the ticket price is an obstacle. The New York State Music Fund was created when the New York State Attorney General’s Office resolved investigations against major record companies that had violated state and federal laws prohibiting “pay for play” (also called “payola”). The settlement agreement stipulated that funds paid by music businesses would support music education and appreciation for the benefit of New York State residents. The Attorney General’s Office enlisted the services of Rockefeller Philanthropy Advisors, one of the nation’s largest and most experienced philanthropy services, to develop and manage the grant program. The New York State Music Fund published guidelines and criteria and accepted grant applications in a number of categories, including music education and public performances of music by artists working in hip hop, reggae, fusion, jazz, classical and folk music of all cultures. Applications related to recording, distribution, or broadcast through traditional or new media were also eligible. Special emphasis was placed on reaching underserved populations and broadening awareness of artists, genres or styles with limited access to commercial broadcast or other mass distribution vehicles. An Advisory Panel comprised of recognized leaders from a cross-section of the music world evaluated and recommended applications based on criteria focusing on artistic merit and community impact, and recommended 218 of 402 applications the Fund received for its second cycle. Awards to the grantees represent every region of New York State and range from $10,000 to $500,000. Diverse forms of popular or experimental music, including indie rock, salsa, electronic, fusion and reggae account for almost 37 percent of grants and more than 15 percent celebrate a spectrum of jazz; nearly 25 percent include new classical music. The state’s ethnic or racial minority communities are served by close to a third of all programs, while 28 percent specifically target rural communities. The Fund’s size and emphasis on music of our time in all its forms set it apart from other arts grant programs. Founded in 1953 and incorporated in 1974, the CSO has been presenting concerts of symphonic and popular music for well over 50 years.
FACULTY/STAFF ACTIVITIES
Matthew Hendley, History recently had four major entries published in James Ciment and Thaddeus Russell (eds.) The Home Front Encyclopedia: United States, Britain and Canada in World Wars I and II. (Santa Barbara, CA: ABC-CLIO, 2007). This encyclopedia is the first scholarly work solely dedicated to the vital social, cultural and political transformations wrought by both world wars in the United States, Britain and Canada. It is published in three volumes and contains over seven hundred entries on “all aspects of life on the home front during the World Wars, including biographies, accounts of cities and regions, cultural phenomena (movies, music and literature), ethnic groups, key events (elections, strikes, mobilization efforts), government agencies and private institutions”. Dr. Ciment is an independent scholar who has edited numerous other important historical encyclopedias. Dr. Russell is an assistant professor of History at Barnard College at Columbia University. Dr. Hendley’s entries concentrate on key political figures and organizations in Britain during the First World War such as the Conservative Party’s wartime leader Andrew Bonar Law, Britain’s extremely successful wartime Prime Minister David Lloyd George and the British Conservative Party. Dr. Hendley also contributed an entry on the divisive issue of conscription in Britain during the First World War.

The article, " 'I Never Kept a Book on the Nightstand': The Power of Self-perception on an Adult's Literacies and Learning," is the result of a two-year study of an adult learner returning to college. The adult's identities as a literate person influenced his learning in ways that are explored in the article.
John Relethford, Anthropology, is the author of a book chapter entitled "The use of quantitative traits in anthropological genetic studies of population structure and history" which appears in the volume Anthropological Genetics: Theory, Methods and Applications, edited by M.H. Crawford (Cambridge University Press, 2007, pp. 187-209). This paper looks at how physical traits, such as cranial, body, and skin color measures, can be used to estimate genetic differences between human populations for use in reconstructing population history.
