Four SUNY Oneonta Students Receive Chancellor's Award for Student Excellence

Four SUNY Oneonta students are among an elite group chosen to receive the 2022 SUNY Chancellor's Award for Student Excellence.

Teresa Lopez-Long, Gabrielle Cecere, Alyssa Carbone and Alexa Laska were four of just 180 State University of New York students recognized by SUNY Interim Chancellor Deborah F. Stanley during a reception in their honor Tuesday, April 26, at the Hall of Springs in Saratoga Springs, NY.

"Teresa, Gabby, Alyssa and Alexa are impressive scholars and exceptional leaders who have served as role models for their campus peers," said SUNY Oneonta President Alberto Cardelle. "I have seen their dedication first hand, and I am confident that their exemplary service and achievements will be the groundwork for great things beyond SUNY Oneonta."

Created in 1997, the Chancellor's Award for Student Excellence is the highest honor that SUNY bestows upon students. It is presented annually to SUNY students who demonstrate academic excellence and integrate it with accomplishments in other areas, such as leadership, career achievement, campus involvement, athletics, community service, or creative and performing arts.
