COBLESKILL – SUNY Cobleskill President Marion Terenzio and Chief Diversity Officer Derwin Bennett today issued the below proclamation in recognition of Native American Heritage Month and the College’s physical placement on the ancestral lands of the Mohawk people. The proclamation officially names a main campus walkway as the “Haudenosaunee (ho-dee-no-SHOW-nee) Pathway of Pride,” a tribute to the member nations of the Iroquois/Haudenosaunee Confederacy.
The pathway from Vroman Hall to Frisbie Hall will be adorned with the flags of Native American nations and other markings and signage along the route. An unveiling event will be planned for the spring of 2023.
