Basketball Season Tickets Now Available

Elton Frazier returns for his senior season

Basketball season tickets are now available for purchase both on-line (www.gogriffs.com) and at the Golden Griffin ticket office (Ext. 2885).  Season tickets for faculty and staff are only $100 which is $50 less than the general public.

The Golden Griffin men’s schedule is highlighted with home games against St. Bonaventure, University at Buffalo and Niagara.  The women will play at least two doubleheaders with the men including a season opening thriller on November 12.  The women battle Kent State at 6 p.m. that day, while the men welcome the Bonnies to the Koessler Atheltic Center for the first time in four years at 8:30 p.m.

Purchase season tickets prior to September 1 and receive a $25 credit at the Golden Griffin merchandise store which is open at all Griffin home games.

The Family Pass is a bargain for Canisius families.  It’s only $125 and admits a family of four to all home games for ice hockey, men’s basketball, women’s basketball and men’s lacrosse.  The Family Pass is ideal for taking the family to just a handful of home contests and is an incredible offer that may be the most economical way to enjoy the Griffs.

Banner Not Available July 3

On Saturday, July 3, access will not be available to Desktop Banner, Self-Service Banner or any locally written web applications that integrate with the Banner data.

This is to accommodate an upgrade to the Oracle database software which underlies the Banner software.  It is NOT an upgrade to any of the Banner software, so you will not see any changes to your Banner environment and there are no Banner release notes for you to review.  This Oracle upgrade should be invisible to you other than on July 3.

For more information, contact the ITS Help Desk at Ext. 2299.
