Monday, October 12th, 2026 - Khalid Ashraf Symposium 6-8 PM EJ Brown (EJB) 119 (the Smart Lecture Hall)

The Department of Social and Behavioral Sciences invite you to explore Civic Engagement with us as we feature a fictional dystopian film set in the year 2022 where the people of planet earth are facing issues such as a dying planet due to climate change, an overpopulated New York City, food scarcity, euthanasia, corporate greed, police and government corruption, pollution, poorly funded human services charity work, and a mostly uneducated society. 

**Refreshments and snacks will be served**

Please join Michael Colomaio, Michael Gargano, Angela Graves, and Jeff Sittu for questions and audience discussion immediately following the film.

There will be a Flu Vaccine Clinic available on the Wellsville Campus Wed 10/14/2026 11am to 1pm drop in. 

Pre-registration is appreciated so enough vaccine is brought to the Health Clinic in PSU. 

Printed registration forms can be picked up at the Health Clinic in PSU or from your academic department secretary.  Return these 3 forms with a copy of your insurance card to fully pre-register and speed up 10/14/26.  Linked here are the registration sheets that you can print out or complete electronically.  

Registration forms include a copy of your health insurance card and can be returned by:

• emailing back to Toth-FTL@alfredstate.edu
• or drop off in the Health Center in PSU

Fischer's has been the flu vaccine provider we've had for the past 7 years and will be held in the Health Clinic on Career Fair day between 11:00 - 1:00pm. This was planned to make it easier to just pop in when coming to the PSU! (If you have forgotten your registration papers or your insurance card, you can still get the shot at that time.)

Contact Nurse Teri with questions:  Toth-FTL@alfredstate.edu

Refunding for the Fall 2026 semester has begun.  Students who have enrolled in e-Refund need not take any additional steps.  

If you have not already done so, you can enroll in e-Refund by visiting my.AlfredState.edu/Finances and selecting Step 3 – Pay your Bill through Nelnet, followed by Manage Refunds. This is the fastest and most convenient way to receive your refund!

For students who do not enroll in e-Refund, checks are mailed to the address on file.   

Please Note: Refunds are based on enrollment status.  Students enrolled in part of term courses, may not see their full refund available until participation has begun in 12 credit hours for the semester.

Open Room Changes and Consolidations 

Due to a record number of new students joining our campus community this term, Residential Services is shifting how we handle the Open Room Change process. We are actively adjusting our approach to ensure every student is supported, and we will share full details below on the updated steps and timeline.

Room Consolidations will begin Monday, September 7th and go until Friday, September 11th. 

Occasionally, through no fault of their own, students who sign up to live in a double room find themselves without a roommate. Unfortunately, all students who live in a double room must be consolidated with another student in a similar situation.  Students will have the opportunity to meet other students at a mixer set up in the residence hall by the building supervisor, so students should look for an email from their RD/AD about that meeting.  We will not be doing room buyouts.

In Building Changes will begin Tuesday, September 22nd through Friday, September 25th 

Students wanting to move within their residence hall will see their Residence Director during their office hours.

Out of Building Changes will begin Monday, September 28th and go through Wednesday, September 30th 

See Residential Services in the Townhouse Commons between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. 

See Residential Services in the Townhouse Commons between 4:30 p.m. and 6:00 p.m. for after hours assistance. 

Depending on the move, there may be an increase or decrease in the cost of housing. Students are encouraged to review the Room Rates prior to completing any move. Information on room rates can be found on our Housing Costs page.

This process must be completed within 24 hours of starting the room change.            

For more details regarding this process please use the following link: https://www.alfredstate.edu/sites/default/files/License-for-Residence.pdf to view a copy of the License for Residence. Specifically details on this process can be found on page 3 under the header of Room Consolidation.
