FYS 101: Academic Resources

This guide is designed to support new students at SU.

'Cuse Activities

’Cuse Activities is an online resource that facilitates connection between students and student organizations known as Registered Student Organizations (RSOs).

There are currently more than 300 RSOs on campus and they cover every interest you can think of—academic, cultural, political, professional, recreational, and more. And if you don’t find an organization that suits your interests, you can even start your own!
