Land Acknowledgement

        The State University of New York at Oswego would like to recognize with respect the Onondaga Nation,
          the “people of the hills,” or central firekeepers of the Haudenosaunee Confederacy, the Indigenous
                              Peoples on whose ancestral lands SUNY Oswego now stands.

          Please join SUNY Oswego in acknowledging the Mohawk, Oneida, Onondaga, Cayuga, Seneca, and
       Tuscarora Nations, their elders both past and present, as well as the future seven generations yet to come.

             Consistent with the University’s values of diversity and equity, inclusion and social justice, this
          acknowledgement demonstrates a commitment to cultivating relationships with Native American
         communities through academic collaborations, partnerships, historical recognitions, and community
                        service in order to dismantle the legacies of conquest and colonization.
