A: There are more than 150 clubs and organizations on campus, but there’s always room for more. If you take the time to plan who’s going to be in charge, what activities you’ll participate in, and what resources you need, it’s not hard to get the wheels moving. Professional staff in the Center for Student Leadership and Involvement and Ithaca's...

On a late October afternoon, a dozen students gather around tables bedecked with brilliant photos of far-away lands. They walk around leisurely, chatting and munching on brownies and sweets. A group of students flip through a colorful scrapbook, laughing at pictures and recounting fond memories of their study-abroad experiences. This meeting is one of the first...

Rucking Renegades

Written by Rosemarie Zonetti ’10 - Tuesday, March 18, 5:00am

“Ready, ready, HIT!”

Our flat line of defense steps up as Temple University’s scrum half passes the ball. One of our forwards makes the tackle. The rest of the forwards flock to the site of the tackle and form a ruck. We win the ball. Now our scrum half passes the ball to our fly half. The ball moves down the line of backs ...


Take The Lead

Written by Kristen Leising '07 - Tuesday, February 26, 5:00am

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be?”

In his 1994 inaugural speech, Nelson Mandela spoke...

Tillery is a member of the Ithaca College Dance Team; Rhythm ‘n Shoes, IC’s tap dance club; and IC Breakers, a break dancing group. While the dance team is very competitive and tap...


Easing into Campus Life

Written by Allison Musante '10 - Thursday, June 21, 2007, 3:55pm

“So, have you won the Pulitzer Prize yet?” my older brother teasingly asked me on the phone two weeks into my first fall semester at Ithaca College.  He knew I had high expectations for the college that I'd taken four years of high school to choose.  After all, piles of admissions literature still cluttered my house, each brochure promising...


Red vs. Blue: Finding My Political Voice at IC

Written by Shanan Glandz ’09 - Friday, June 15, 2007, 2:09pm

Apolitical to the extreme, all I knew about politics in high school was that my parents and grandparents, with the exception of my blue-state grandmother, voted Republican, and most of my hometown was a stronghold of conservative support. In fact, I had no idea what the difference between a conservative and Republican was. Nor did I care.

Out and Proud at Ithaca

Written by Bryan Roth '07 - Thursday, May 10, 2007, 9:23am

In a city such as Ithaca and on a campus like Ithaca College, the personalities and people you can encounter cover the entire spectrum of possibilities. In such a free-flowing place of intellectualism and acceptance, it should be no surprise to find a thriving community of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender students at...

IC Alums Take Their Dancing Shoes to LA

Written by Betsy Uhler '04 - Wednesday, October 24, 2007, 10:40am

In Los Angeles, it’s impossible for me not to bump into friends from Ithaca College on a regular basis. It all started when my roommate, Elizabeth Tramontozzi ’03 and I had a party at our house last month that included fellow IC alums. We got to reminiscing about our days at Ithaca, especially our fond memories of performing in the...

Written by Miranda K. Pennington '07 - Monday, October 8, 2007, 2:24pm

“Wacky idea for Ithacappella,” said Incubus manager Steve Rennie in an e-mail to the-Ithacappella conductor Greg Harris ’07. “How would you guys like to come out to L.A. and help Incubus sing ‘Dig at the KROQ Weenie Roast and Fiesta?”

The unprecedented opportunity materialized after an...


So You Think You Can Sing?

Written by Shanan Glandz ’09 - Monday, October 8, 2007, 1:52pm

Thanks to its musical roots, Ithaca offers something for all talented singers, no matter what major or course of study. Ithacappella, the College's all-male a cappella group, is just one example.

Founded in 1996 by four members of the Phi Mu Alpha music fraternity, Ithacappella was an alternative for male students who...
