Employment Resources
Although we encourage you to stay healthy, we understand you or others in your network may need work during this time. Check out these resources to see who's hiring:
Academic Resources
We encourage you all to reassess your academic calendars as many deadlines have changed to benefit you during this time of transition (P/F deadline, drop dates, INC requests). It is essential to identify your options earlier rather than later.
Most institutions are offering online counseling support. This would be a great time to take advantage of it if necessary. Search counseling services on your school website.

It appears that most SUNY Campuses are using this service; Very few are using something different: SUNY Online tutoring
