Mornings on the Hill for April 1, 2022

COMING UP… IF YOU’VE SEEN THESE FLAGS AROUND CAMPUS, WE’LL TELL YOU WHY THEY’RE THERE AND WHAT THEY REPRESENT.
AND STUDENTS ARE RUNNING THEIR CAMPAIGN FOR STUDENT ASSOCIATION AS THEY JUST FINISHED THEIR DEBATE.
AS WE SPEAK… DESTINY USA IS A SAFER PLACE THANKS TO SYRACUSE POLICE COLLABORATING WITH NY STATE TROOPERS.
AND OUR VERY OWN JACK WALLACE BRINGS THE FINAL FOUR TO US… COMING UP ON THIS EDITION OF MORNINGS ON THE HILL.
GOOD MORNING. I’M PA-ZONG LEE.. THANKS FOR JOINING US FOR MORNINGS ON THE HILL.
AND I’M ALAINA LOSITO… HERE’S A LOOK AT SOME OF OUR TOP STORIES THIS MORNING.
ONONDAGA COUNTY HAS ONE OF THE HIGHEST COVID RATES IN THE COUNTRYAND THAT COULD MEAN THE RETURN OF MASKING.
ONONDOGA IS ONE OF THE THREE HIGH RISK COUNTIES IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
TAKE A LOOK AT THIS MAP. DO YOU SEE CENTRAL NEW YORK IN RED? THERE’S
NOT A LOT OF RED ON THIS MAP. ONONDAGA COUNTY HAS A NEW HIGH OF
THREE HUNDRED-46 CASES. THE C-D-C RECOMMENDS MASKS BECAUSE OF THE RISE IN CASES. ONLY 17 COUNTIES ACROSS THE COUNTRY ARE IN THE HIGH RISK CATAGORY.
SO HERE’S HOW IT LOOKS ON THE CAMPUS COVID DASHBOARD….
THERE ARE CURRENTLY 74 ACTIVE CASES AMONG FACULTY, STAFF AND
STUDENTS AT S-U. ALL 74 PEOPLE ARE IN ISOLATION -THERE ARE JUST TWO
STUDENTS AMONG THEM. IN THE PAST WEEKS 14 NEW STUDENT CASES HAVE
BEEN REPORTED. IT’S A SLIGHT UPTICK IN CASES BUT FAR BELOW THE ONE HUNDRED-38 CASES WE SAW AT THE BEGINNING OF THE MONTH. WE ARE IN THE YELLOW ALERT LEVEL SO MASKS ARE OPTIONAL BUT THEY ARE RECOMMENDED.
PLENTY OF US HAVE HAD SECOND THOUGHTS ABOUT GOING TO DESTINY U-S-A.
BECAUSE OF THE RASH OF CRIME OVER THE LAST FEW MONTHS.
BUT IT’S A POPULAR PLACE FOR STUDENTS.
MOTH REPORTER, TESSA HOWARD IS LIVE ON CAMPUS TO TELL US HOW DESTINY IS BEEFING UP THE SECURITY.
THERE HAVE BEEN MULTIPLE ROBBERIES AND SHOOTINGS AT DESTINY.
THE SYRACUSE POLICE DEPARTMENT SAYS THEY’VE ADDED MORE SECURITY GUARDS, BUT IT’S NOT ENOUGH.
THIS WEEK, POLICE TEAM UP WITH NEW YORK STATE TROOPERS.
ALL EYES ARE ON DESTINY USA IN HOPES TO KEEP SYRACUSE’S MALL A SAFER PLACE.
NEW YORK STATE TROOPERS AND SYRACUSE POLICE JOIN FORCES THIS WEEK TO COMBAT RECENT VIOLENT CRIMES.
FOR DESTINY USA EMPLOYEES LIKE DARCIE ORTIQUE, THEY FEEL ON EDGE.
I don’t feel safe. As you can see Julie Boeheim was robbed broad day light. She’s not the only person who’s robbed coming out of the mall.
IN THE PAST MONTH, THREE SHOOTINGS INCLUDING ARMED ROBBERIES HAS HAPPENED AT DESTINY.
STATE POLICE CONFIRM DEPLOYMENT OF ITS COMMUNITY STABLIZATION UNIT.
THE UNIT INCLUDES PLAIN-CLOTHED OFFICERS AND TROOPERS AROUND THE MALL.
FOR ORTIQUE, SHE’S TAKING THE EXTRA MILE TO STAY SAFE.
I always leave the mall with a male co-worker, or I take it a point to call mall security.
NEW YORK STATE TROOPER JACK KELLER SAYS POLICE WANT DESTINY SHOPPERS AND EMPLOYEES TO ALWAYS FEEL SAFE.
HOWEVER, KELLER IS ADVOCATING FOR CRIME PREVENTION EFFORTS.
Whether it’s a college student, an older family, younger family, the constant reminder is crime prevention. You want to be able to stay vigilante. Make sure you know your surroundings when you leave that mall.

MORNINGS ON THE HIILL REACHED OUT TO SYRACUSE POLICE FOR COMMENT.
SYRACUSE POLICE LIEUTENANT, MATTHEW MALINOWSKI (MA-LA-NA-SKI) SAYS QUOTE:
WHILE SECURITY IS ULTIMATELY THE PROPERTY OWNER’S REPSONSIBILITY, THE
SYRACUSE POLICE DEPARTMENT HAS BEEN A LONG-STANDING PARTNER OF
DESTINY USA IN PROVIDING POLICE SERVICES. THIS IS SUPPLEMENTAL TO THE
OVERTIME DETAIL THAT ALREADY EXISTS INSIDE. WE THANK OUR PARTNERS AT THE STATE POLICE FOR THEIR EFFORTS OF TRYING TO REDUCE CRIME.
TROOPER KELLER SAYS THE MALL SECURITY IS COMPLETELY SEPERATE FROM THEIR OPERATION.
HE EXPECTS THE OPERATION TO REMAIN UNTIL CRIME LOWERS.
FOR MORNINGS ON THE HILL, I’M TESSA HOWARD.HOUSE SPEAKER NANCY PELOSI WAS THE GUEST SPEAKER AT THE TONER PRIZES FOR EXCELLENCE IN POLITICAL REPORTING MONDAY.THE VIRTUAL CEREMONY MARKS THE 12TH YEAR OF THE AWARDS IN HONOR OF THE LATE ALUMNA… ROBIN TONER.TONER WAS THE FIRST WOMAN TO BE A NATIONAL CORRESPONDENT FOR THE NEW YORK TIMES. PELOSI SPOKE ABOUT THE VALUE OF THE PRESS. Undermining the press, establishing a thing called fake news, it was not original with him, as it has been with previous autocrats, in my view, the press is the most important force in democracy. PELOSI SAYS SHE IS EXCITED FOR THE INCREASE OF FEMALE REPRESENTATION AND WOMEN OF COLOR IN THE PRESS AND LOOKS FORWARD TO THE FUTURE. PROTESTERS ATTENDED “TAKE BACK THE NIGHT” THIS WEEK. IT’S AN ON CAMPUS EVENT TO RAISE AWARENESS ABOUT SEXUAL ASSUALTS AND VIOLENCE. IT ALSO CALLS FOR MORE RESOURCES FOR STUDENTS.

NEW YORK SCHOOLS ARE GETTING A BIG BOOST FOR MENTAL HEALTH… 50 MILLION DOLLARS IN FUNDING FROM THE GOVERNMENT.
GOVERNOR HOCHUL HAS ANNOUNCED THAT EACH DISTRICT COULD RECEIVE UP TO FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS A YEAR.
HOCHUL SAYS YOUNG STUDENTS HAVE BEEN HIT HARD BY THE PANDEMIC,
SUFFERING DISRUPTIONS IN THEIR EDUCATION, SOCIAL LIVES, AND RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIES.
HERE ON CAMPUS S-U STUDENTS CAN FIND MANY MENTAL HEALTH RESOURCES INCLUDING ONE THAT INVOLVES PUPPIES.
MIKHALAARMSTRONG TELLS US HOW STUDENTS ARE FINDING OUT HOW PUPPIES CAN BE MORE THAN JUST PET’S BUT THERAPY.
WITH ONLY A MATTER OF WEEKS LEFT IN SCHOOL, STUDENTS CAN FEEL OVERWHELMED WITH ALL OF THE WORK.
BUT THE BARNES CENTER IS OFFERING A PROGRAM TO HELP RELIEVE SOME
STRESS AND HELP YOUR MENTAL HEALTH IN THE PROCESS.

CLAYTON IS A FIVE-YEAR OLD GOLDENDOODLE.
HE ALLOWS ALL TO HUG, FEED, RUB, AND PLAY WITH HIM ONCE A WEEK ON SYRACUSE UNIVERSITY’S CAMPUS.
CLAYTON IS A PART OF THE UNIVERSITY’S PET THERAPY PROGRAM TO DESTRESS STUDENTS WITH JUST A SWIPE OF THEIR STUDENT ID CARD.
STUDENT RACHEL KERN, SAYS THIS WAS HER FIRST TIME AT PET THERAPY AND IT WILL NOT BE HER LAST.
I know that a lot of students especially our age struggle with mental health, me being one of them, so it is definitely helpful to have these resources on campus, I think its really crucial to have access to mental health resources and something as fun as pet therapy.
CLAYTON’S OWNERS SAM AND NICK VESCIO (VESH-EE-O) HAVE BEEN A PART OF
THE PROGRAM FOR THREE YEARS AND FIND JOY IN KNOWING THEIR DOG IS MAKING A DIFFERENCE IN OTHER’S LIVES.
A lot of the people as they get up I hear little comments like ‘Now i know I can go take soand-so’s class, and have no problems and get through it’ after seeing Clayton..
MENTAL HEALTH IS A CURRENT ISSUE COLLEGE STUDENTS FACE AND SYRACUSE
UNIVERSITY IS USING HELPFUL PROGRAMS LIKE PET THERAPY AS A TOOL TO HELP STUDENTS HAVE A CALMING RESOURCE.
TRACK:
BARNES CENTER HEALTH PROMOTION PROGRAM COORDINATOR, VINCENTE
CUEVAS SAYS DUE TO THE POSITIVE RESPONSE OF STUDENTS AND THE HELPFUL
SPACE IT HAS CREATED FOR MENTAL HEALTH THE UNIVERSITY EXPANDED THE PROGRAM TO A WEEKLY SCHEDULE WITH MORE DOGS.
It’s simple in nature, but it has a vast impact on one’s mental health
CLAYTON CAN BE HUGGED AT THE NEXT PET THERAPY EVENT ON TUESDAY, WEDNESDAY, OR FRIDAY AT THE BARNES CENTER.
TO SEE MORE DOG’S LIKE CLAYTON VISIT THE BARNES CENTER FOR PET THERAPY DURING THE WEEK.
I’M MIKHALAARMSTRONG, BACK TO YOU-
TIME TO CHECK YOUR WEATHER FOR TODAY.
TOLUWA FAMUYIDE IS HERE TO TELL US WHAT TO EXPECT.
GOOD MORNING PA-ZONG AND ALAINA… DON’T GET YOUR CROP TOPS AND YOUR
SHORTS OUT JUST YET… WHILE IT MAY FEEL A LITTLE WARMER THAN THE LAST
COUPLE OF
DAYS… ITS CURRENTLY 42 DEGREES WITH SOME LIGHT SHOWERS.
EXPECT TO BRING OUT A LIGHT RAIN JACKET FOR YOUR AFTERNOON SHENANIGANS AND BE MINDFUL OF THE WIND… WITH SPEEDS CURRENTLY AROUND 10 MPH.
NOW TOMORROW THE WEATHER IS LOOKING UP… YOU CAN EXPECT A CLEAR AND
SUNNY DAY… AND IF YOU’RE PLANNING A NICE AFTERNOON BRUNCH OR WALKING YOUR PETS… YOU CAN DEFINITELY GO FOR STYLE INSTEAD OF BUNDLING UP TOO MUCH.
NOW LETS TAKE A LOOK AT THE 5 DAY FORECAST… AND IT LOOKS LIKE WE CAN FINALLY KISS THE FREEZING TEMPERATURES GOODBYE…
SUNDAY WANTS TO GIVE US A LITTLE REMINDER OF THE COLD BUT MONDAY STARTS THE TREND OF RISING TEMPERATURES IN SYRACUSE.
WE COULD BE LOOKING AT A HIGH OF 48 ON MONDAY… BUT TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY COULD REACH UP TO THE MID 50s… SO MAYBE THINK ABOUT LEAVING THAT WINTER COAT ON THE RACK.
THAT’S ALL WE HAVE FOR THE WEATHER SYRACUSE… BACK TO YOU IN THE STUDIO.
IT’S FINAL FOUR NIGHT AND IF YOU AREN’T PUMPED UP–YOU SHOULD BE. STAY WITH US FOR A SNEAK PEAK AT WHAT’S GOING DOWN IN NEW ORLEANS TONIGHT.
AND WE’LL BE SHARING SOME TOURNAMENT TIES TO RIGHT HERE IN SYRACUSE.
STAY HERE WITH US RIGHT HERE ON MORNINGS ON THE HILL.
{Anchor: SYDNI / ON CAM}
WELCOME BACK TO MORNINGS ON THE HILL.
I’M SYDNI EURE WITH YOUR SPORTS UPDATE.
IT’S FINAL FOUR WEEKEND. KANSAS TAKES ON VILLANOVA-AND IT’S A REMATCH FOR DUKE AND NORTH CAROLINA.
OUR JACK WALLACE IS IN NEW ORLEANS FOR ALL THE ACTION.
THANKS JACK.
A LOT OF US ARE DEFINITELY LOOKING FORWARD TO THE FINAL FOUR MATCH
UPS TONIGHT — EVEN ON THE WOMEN’S SIDE BETWEEN LOUISVILLE VERSUS SOUTH CAROLINA AND U-CONN VERSUS STANFORD.
BUT I’M STILL THINKING ABOUT HOW GREAT THE GAMES WERE LAST WEEK– AND
YOU KNOW WHY… AN OLD SYRACUSE NATIVE SHOWED UP AND SHOWED OUT IN
THAT TOURNAMENT. MICHIGAN’S POINT GUARD DANIELLE RAUCH HAS SOME SPECIAL TIES TO SYRACUSE.
RAUCH, WAS NOT ONLY A STAND OUT PLAYER AT BISHOP LUDDEN — SHE ALSO SPENT MANY OF HER SUMMERS LACING UP WITH THE AAU PROGRAM I-90 ELITE RIGHT HERE IN SYRACUSE.
I-90 ELITE– ONE OF THE TOP ONE HUNDRED PROGRAMS IN THE COUNTRY– IS GETTING READY TO MAKE EVEN MORE DREAMS COME.
I-90 ELITE PROGRAM DIRECTOR AND COACH RANDY WRIGHT SAYS THEY HAVE
TOP COMPETITION TEAMS FROM 8-TH GRADE TO 11-TH GRADE ALL READY TO SHOW COACHES THEY HAVE WHAT IT TAKES TO PLAY AT SOME OF THE HIGHEST COLLEGE LEVELS — JUST LIKE RAUCH.
For a kid that didn’t play her first three years, persevered through that, team first leader and has led Michigan for the first time in their history to move on and a little bit of her process is that she played with us. She was a part of our inaugural program and was highly highly recruited. Just says a lot about the kids that come to our program that are able to play.
IT’S ALWAYS GREAT SEEING PEOPLE FLOURISH WHEN THEY LEAVE SYRACUSE-BUT THERE’S SOMETHING SPECIAL WHEN THEY COME HOME TO POUR BACK INTO YOUR COMMUNITY.
I MEAN IF YOU’RE FROM HERE THEN YOU ALREADY KNOW– A LOT OF PEOPLE RUN UP OUT OF THIS CITY AS FAST AS THEY CAN AND THEY’RE NEVER TO BE SEEN HERE AGAIN.
BUT THAT’S NOT THE CASE FOR THIS NOTTINGHAM GRAD.
I’M TALKING FELISHA LEGETTE-JACK.
YOU PROBABLY KNOW BY NOW THAT LEGETTE-JACK IS THE NEW COACH FOR THE SU WOMEN’S PROGRAM.
WE JUST RETIRED HER JERSEY NOT TOO LONG AGO — BUT THAT JERSEY ALONE JUST WOULDN’T DO SO HERE SHE IS BACK FOR EVEN MORE.
LEGETTE-JACK COMING RIGHT OFF THE HEAD COACHING POSITION AT THE
UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO WHERE SHE COACHED HER TEAM TO FOUR NCAA
TOURNAMENT APPEARANCES BUT SHE’S ALSO SPENT TIME COACHING AT HOFSTRAAND INDIANA.
DEFINITELY EXCITED TO SEE HER IN ACTION. I SAW ON TWITTER SHE MET WITH A
LOT OF THE LOCAL MEDIA IN TOWN–ALL OF US HERE AT MORNINGS ON THE HILL HAVE OUR FINGERS CROSSED FOR THE INVITE TO THE NEXT ONE.
SO AS ONE GREAT THING OUT OF BUFFALO IS HEADED OUT OF TOWN – SOMETHING GREAT IS READY TO MAKE AN ENTRANCE.
A NEW STADIUM FOR THE BUFFALO BILLS IS SCHEDULED TO BREAK GROUND IN 20-23.
BUT NOT BEFORE TAX PAYERS SPEND A PRETTY PENNY.
NEW YORK STATE AND ERIE COUNTY TAX PAYERS WILL BE ASKED ALLOCATE EIGHT HUNDRED-50-MILLION DOLLARS OF THEIR PUBLIC FUNDS TO HELP PAY FOR THE STADIUM.
GOVERNOR KATHY HOCHUL SAID IN A PRESS RELEASE THAT NEW YORK STATE
WILL SPEND 600-MILLION IN FUNDS ON TOP OF 250-MILLION FROM ERIE COUNTY.
THE PRESS RELEASE ALSO STATING THAT THE NFL AND THE BILLS WILL BE COMMITTING 550-MILLION-DOLLARS TOO.
LOT’S GOING INTO THIS NEW STADIUM BUT MANY FANS ARE HAPPY THAT THE BILLS WILL BE STAYING IN BUFFALO
DID YOU KNOW WE HAD A WOMEN’S BASKETBALL CLUB TEAM?
WELL IF YOU DIDN’T YOU STILL HAVE A CHANCE TO CHECK OUT THEM OUT THIS SATURDAY.
THEY’LL TAKE ON CORTLAND IN THE REGIONAL FINAL. THEY’LL TIP OFF INSIDE THE WOMEN’S BUILDING AT 1:40.
I’LL BE THERE AND I’LL BE LOOKING FOR YOU.
YOU’RE ALL UP TO DATE. I’M SYDNI EURE WITH YOUR SPORTS REPORT RIGHT HERE FOR MORNINGS ON THE HILL. BACK TO YOU.

“MORBIUS IS DISJOINTED, RUSHED, POORLY EDITED, AND THEN IT ENDS
ABRUPTLY WITH VIEWERS JUST KIND OF STARING AT THEIR SCREEN WONDERING WHAT JUST HAPPENED.”
“THIS IS JUST A TOTAL EMBARRASSMENT TO THE LEGACY OF MARVEL COMICS
AND GOES TO PROVE AFTER SPIDER-MAN: NO WAY HOME THAT SONY REALLY
CAN’T MAKE A GOOD COMIC BOOK MOVIE WITHOUT DISNEY ANYMORE.”
SAYS DAILY EXPRESS UK
