Blue & Gold Today

Faculty/staff should register your vehicle online. All permits (hangtags) will be mailed to your department’s campus address. The registration fee remains $5 per employee. 

Please register through  My.AlfredState.edu and select:

The Parking Card - click on the Vehicle Registration link

Once registered, your permit will be mailed through campus mail to your department’s address. *Please make sure your campus address is up-to-date. If it is not, please contact HR to make necessary changes.

This process may take a couple of weeks before you receive your permit in the campus mail. The permit can be switched between vehicles that only you drive to campus. They are not to be shared with other individuals to serve as their registration. You may contact University Police for an additional permit for special circumstances at 3999 for arrangements on obtaining it. 

* If for some reason you are not able to pay online, you may pay at Student Records and Financial Services, bring your receipt to the University Police Department, complete a Vehicle Parking Registration Form and we will issue your permit at that time.

Dear faculty,

This fall, PDW introduces Faculty Action Institutes — extended 3-hour collaborative working sessions where faculty tackle focused challenges and produce concrete deliverables like action plans, guidelines, and frameworks. 

• Six institutes are proposed across two days, running concurrently for 3 hours in the morning.
• Each Institute will focus on a specific topic/skill/institutional challenge and will include - a virtual speaker/expert to offer insights for 45 minutes and working sessions for brainstorming, discussions and panel discussions.
• Participation in one Institute will count as attendance at 3 PDW sessions towards 15 sessions required to qualify for the Certificate of Professional development.
• Action plans and insights will be shared by participants of each Institute during an open forum, after lunch.

Please give us your input by Wednesday, May 13: Which topics interest you most? Would you be willing to facilitate or co-facilitate a session? Have a different topic you'd like to propose? Complete this 5-minute survey. PDW Fall 2026 Faculty Action Institutes & other sessions    – Fill out form

The survey also includes call for proposals by members of Faculty Senate committees interested in facilitating a roundtable or an open forum at the PDW, and by faculty members interested in showcasing their innovations in 25–50-minute sessions.

For more information about PDW Institutes and an overview of PDW Fall 2026, plan to attend the CITE Open Forum on Thursday, May 14 from 9-10 am in EJB 119 and continue the conversations during CITE End-Semester Social from 10 -11:30 am in EJB 106.

We encourage our campus community to support the many initiatives our incredible students are spearheading throughout April as part of our Civic Leadership Spring into Action Campaign.  Initiatives are already underway and you can find a list of some of the offerings linked here.  Big thank you to all who have conducted service or supported through engagement so far!!

We are aware of other potential volunteer needs in the community that are not yet filled, so if you are a club, organization or department interested in providing service this month please reach out to Cyan Corwine in the Center for Civic Leadership so we can help connect you with community partners in need.  

In addition to the publicized events: 

• AGC Student Chapter will be doing a village clean-up on April 21st led by their advisor Dr. Reza Yadollahi from 11am-1pm.
• Pi Rho Zeta is hosting a drunk driving awareness event this Wednesday, April 22nd (Earth Day) at 5pm in EJ Brown 119.
• Alpha Beta Chi is hosting a carwash on April 24th from 3-7pm at the Alfred Station Fire Hall. Car's are $5 and Trucks are $7 with all proceeds raised going to Alfred Fire & EMS!
• Criminal Justice Club (SLC 411) are partnering once again with UP and Civic Leadership to bring back the Food-for-Fine-Forgiveness program throughout the month of April. Students can drop off $10 of non-perishable food in exchange for one parking fine reduction to either of these leadership suites during the month of April. Only one fine reduction per person. Food benefits wider campus community.

These are just some of the amazing ways our students are leading the way with service this Global Volunteer Month. Please get out and support them in their efforts as we Spring into Action and nurture our caring community! Again, if you have another event that you would like to lead during the month or if you want help partnering with someone in wider community to fulfill service, please do not hesitate to reach out to Cyan Corwine (corwincy@alfredstate.edu)

Dear SAT faculty members,

Schedule:

• Wednesday, April 1, 2026, 2:30 to 4 pm
• Workforce Development Center, Room 154
• This session is designed to spark conversation through a few short teaching-and-learning activities, followed by brainstorming around strategies that may help address shared concerns and teaching challenges of Automotive and Electrical Trades Departments.
• Refreshments will be available.

Whether you would like to share an idea, raise a challenge, or simply listen in - ALL SAT faculty on Wellsville campus - are warmly welcome. Come connect with colleagues, enjoy refreshments, and leave with at least one new idea to explore in your teaching. [We will be hosting a separate event in April, for faculty members on Northland campus]

Join us this Thursday, March 26, at 11:30 am, for the second roundtable conversation featuring two use cases each, of Mentor AI and Visible AI assignments. While both platforms provide guided access to tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude to support student AI Literacy and Academic Integrity, they function somewhat differently:

• Visible AI (VAI) is intentionally designed with academic integrity at its core.
• Mentor AI offers a broader student-facing ecosystem and learning support environment.

Together, they raise important questions we’ll explore:

• How can both platforms support academic integrity while enabling responsible student use of AI?
• How do we design assignments that build AI literacy, not dependency?
• What does effective, transparent AI integration look like in practice?

Roundtable 2

• Thursday, March 26
• 11:30 AM – 12:30 PM
• EJB 106 + Microsoft Teams

Key takeaways: Participants will

• Learn from peers across disciplines
• Ask questions and exchange ideas
• Explore novel prompt designs and creative use cases
• Compare features and approaches across platforms and LLMs

Dear College Community,

I firmly believe that the strength of our institution is powered by the dedication of the people who care for our campus each day. Their work supports every classroom experience, every student success, and every moment of campus life.

Last week we recognized our maintenance professionals on National Maintenance Worker Day. We had the opportunity to recognize and thank our people whose skill, commitment, and pride in their work help make Alfred State the vibrant community it is. Through their daily efforts, maintaining our buildings, caring for our grounds, and responding whenever help is needed, they create the safe, welcoming environment that allows our students, faculty, and staff to thrive.

Much of this work happens behind the scenes, but its impact is visible everywhere. Every well-maintained space, every prepared classroom, and every functioning facility reflects the dedication and professionalism of the maintenance team. Their work ensures that Alfred State remains a place where learning, innovation, and community can flourish.

We celebrate the individuals who keep our campus running and looking its best. Their contributions may not always be in the spotlight, but they are essential to everything we accomplish as a college.

Please join me in expressing our sincere appreciation to the maintenance professionals who serve our campus with such care and commitment. Your work truly makes a difference, and Alfred State is stronger because of you.

With gratitude, 

Steven Mauro
