J.T. Knorr, 48, decided to return to college at Plattsburgh State University because of what he referred to as "job burn out." He was bored with life. "I was living like a mouse on a wheel," says Knorr, speaking of his time spent selling cars while living in Pleasant Hill, CA. "Sure, I could buy anything I wanted, but I didn’t even have time to shop," he says. "Now I can go to a shoe shop and take my time." |

Therapeutic riding, hippotherapy (physical therapy with a horse), and equine-assisted psychotherapy (psychological therapy utilizing a horse) has helped both children and adults in Northern New York and across the country.

"There was one body too large to transport in a container, so I brought it back in a personal bag," Mark Cohen, archaeologist and professor at SUNY Plattsburgh, states. "I was going through customs in Florida. My bag went through the machine and the lady looked at me and said, 'Are those bones?' I said, 'yes.' She said, 'human bones?' I said, 'yes' again. She looked at me again, and then said, 'I'm going to have to call my supervisor.' I was ready with all my papers, though." Read More |

One morning, a resident of the City of Plattsburgh came out to find footprints and a dent on her car. Another time, the same resident found a drunken student sleeping in her living room. Nancy Strack, a resident of Plattsburgh for 46 years retells these stories and remembers her anger and frustration with such behavior. "One friend had a young tree (her 50th birthday present) broken in half on her lawn. She really likes kids and knows it's not everyone, but she's been scared, sad, and very angry about the incidents," Strack said. |
