English and Communication Student Organization (ECSO)

ECSO is here to keep English and Communication majors/minors involved in out-of-class activities.
Introduce non-majors/minors to the department.
To help students get to know the professors in the English and Communication Department.
To share the passion and love for grammar, words, and speaking.
To introduce students to possible careers in the fields of English and Communication.
To practice many communication skills that will prove helpful in a career.
To provide a leadership opportunity for all students.

Two yearly book sales. One in the fall semester and one in the spring semester. Books are donated by students and professors.
Candy-Grams at Halloween. Students buy a bag of candy and fill out a name tag. The candy is then delivered to that student's mailbox.
A poetry slam held in the Spring Semester. Students come to Dexter's Cafe and read a piece of poetry (either an original piece or one previously written).
Meet and Greet with the professors of the English and Communication Department. During the Meet and Greet, students get the chance to meet SUNY Potsdam faculty members/professors that they may have in the future.
End of spring semester picnic with the professors. This is a good way to have fun before exams start and possibly talk to those professors about your marks!
Guest Speakers. ECSO tries to get authors and speakers to come and talk to students on campus or read some of their work.
