SUNY Morrisville student Hunter White is already making his mark in the environmental industry.
He is among the State University of New York’s inaugural class of paid student interns from the SUNY Climate Corps Internship Program.
Thirty-six SUNY students from eight campuses were selected for immersive, real-life work experiences in research and policy at state agencies with environmental and sustainability missions and SUNY System Administration.
They learned about renewable energy, watched a tower climb demonstration, saw a giant solar array, a dentless auto paint repair, car wrap and detail, and heard how sunflowers can be turned into fuel to run a car.
It was all part of SUNY Morrisville’s exploration day during its Automotive & Clean Energy Summer Institute. The event offered a chance for participants to explore opportunities and emerging technologies in automotive, diesel, agricultural technology and renewable energy.
There were more than 100 students and plenty of robots!
SUNY Morrisville’s Science and Technology Entry (STEP) Robotics Team was among 11 schools that put their robots to the test during a Statewide Robotics Competition held May 31 at Adelphi University in Garden City, New York.

From a simple knock at the door to knocking on the door of greatness.
From “arriving with nothing” to leaving with everything.
From honoring previous Mustang legends to now becoming one.
Those were just some of the memorable storylines highlighting the SUNY Morrisville Athletics Wall of Fame Class of 2023, which honored seven Mustangs:
Country music bounces non-stop off the concrete bleachers in the cavernous Syracuse Coliseum as the show ring gate swings open and the announcer crackles to life.
“Here’s draw number 20, back number 591, Holy Cannoli Katie and RE Sears.”
The chestnut mare jogs into the center of the ring and, with nearly invisible cues from Sears — a tap on the neck, a touch of the spur — spins four times to the left, four to the right.
Chris Pelrah ’06 and his wife were hiking in the Adirondacks when they came upon a forest ranger heading out to check on a complaint.
“There was some bear activity with people camping in the High Peaks area and the bears were getting into people’s food,” Pelrah said. “I remember the feeling I got — of the ranger helping others — and doing so outdoors. It was an interaction that changed my life.”
