What a great night at the SUNY Oswego Involvement Fair! 💚💛

Our COBE student organization leaders were out in full force, showcasing their clubs, sharing what they do, and connecting with new students.

So proud of all the Lakers who came out, explored new opportunities, and found a club to call their own. Getting involved is one of the best ways to build connections, develop leadership skills, and make the most of the college experience.

A big thank you to our student leaders for representing COBE so well! 👏
