On the day of this issue’s publication, Feb. 20, the managing editing staff of the SUNY-wide literary journal Gandy Dancer are hosting their first ever open mic night in the Union’s fireside lounge from 7 p.m.-10 p.m. Following the news that the magazine will now be accepting submissions of music to feature on the official Gandy Dancer website, this event offers Geneseo students the opportunity to share their poems, short stories, and, of course, their music.

Steuben Hall celebrated Valentine’s Day in a very fun and creative way. In the small lounge on Steuben’s fourth floor, RA Fischer hosted an activity that allowed students to decorate and personalize a bag with designs and messages of their choosing, and they could hang these bags on their doors so other students could put their Valentine’s cards in them.

For many admitted students, choosing a college feels both exciting and intimidating. Brochures, websites, and campus tours can offer helpful snapshots, but they rarely capture what daily life actually feels like. That is where the Knight for a Day program at SUNY Geneseo makes a difference.

On Friday Feb. 13, the Chinese Culture Club at Geneseo (CCCG) hosted their annual China Knight Dinner in the MacVittie College Union ballroom, which transformed an otherwise ordinary night into a celebration of tradition, culture, and cuisine. Guests gathered to enjoy a diverse array of performances complemented with traditional Chinese cuisine. 

In the lobby of the MacVittie College Union on Feb. 9, Hips 'n Harmony held their annual carnation sale, drawing students in with colorful and vibrant flowers and bringing their familiar tradition back to campus.

On a campus filled with deadlines, rehearsals, and packed schedules, finding a space devoted purely to conversation and reflection can feel rare. Geneseo’s Philosophy Club offers exactly that: a welcoming environment where students and professors can come together to explore ideas, ask difficult questions, and think collectively—without the pressure of grades or expectations.

On Feb. 7 from 6:30 to 9:30 p.m., Geneseo Late Knight (GLK) and the Geneseo Figure Skating Club (GFSC) collaborated to produce a memorable and joyful night of ice skating for students.

SUNY Geneseo students feeling like there is Much Ado About Nothing on campus should direct their attention to The Globe, Geneseo’s Shakesphere club centered around “bonding, [being] surprising, [and] whimsical,” as founders Sonia Horowitz and Ella Singer put it while discussing their club with The Lamron.

For the first time since the notorious gas leak of 2024, as covered by The Lamron, SUNY Geneseo cancelled classes due to the State of Emergency announced by Governor Hochul.

In the midst of rush season, The Lamron talked with Liz Allegro, Coordinator of Fraternity & Sorority Life at SUNY Geneseo. Saturday, Feb. 7, is the campus-wide Bid Day of the spring semester.

For 30 years, the Geneseo Area Gaming Group (GAGG) has hosted an event called “Running GAGG,” with this year’s conference being held Jan. 30 through Feb. 1.

Are you looking for a resume builder or a friend or two? A meaningful way to contribute to your campus, community, or maybe even the entire nation? SUNY Geneseo’s service fraternity, Alpha Phi Omega (APO), can give you all these opportunities and more.  

The best advice I can give to any student—not only first years—is to find a club that suits you and join.

We have now entered the part of the semester where final projects, presentations, and exam preparation are in full swing. That includes the students in Dr. Adams’s WGST-310 Race, Class, and Gender course.

If you have been on The Lamron’s website within the last year, you may have noticed various changes to the format, alongside new features like sub-categories and a PDF backlog of our newspaper—in case you miss a week—there is one person to thank for this: Web Editor Rachel Turner.

If you have ever heard a voice echo through the bottom floor of the MacVittie College Union, chances are that was Nathaniel D’Amato.

Nonetheless, I decided to give it a shot, and it was one of the best decisions I have ever made. 

From Nov. 13 to 19, the College Union Ballroom Lounge hosted a pop-up clothing shop in celebration of Transgender Awareness Week.

This past week, The Lamron sat down with the executive board members of Peace Action Geneseo (PAG) to find out behind-the-scenes information and see how different each member was despite being part of the same club.
