Initiating this fall 2015 school year, SUNY Canton, Delhi and Potsdam students will now benefit from the following Apogee services:

• High-speed networks with greater mobility, unrestricted access and bandwidth
• Wall-to-wall wireless access that extends to more common areas, including laundry and game rooms
• 24-hour support and troubleshooting by phone, email, chat and text
• Around-the-clock network support for all student devices including desktops, laptops, PDAs and DVRs
• Dedicated full-time Apogee coordinator to provide on-site student support
• Enhanced network protections, testing and 24-hour network monitoring

SUNY Cobleskill will also offer its students Apogee's high-quality distribution of Video-over-IP, including all-digital, HD, and DVR packages, and custom channel lineups.

"We are honored to welcome the addition of these four prestigious schools amongst our established SUNY partnerships," said Chuck Brady, chief executive officer of Apogee.
