The Onondaga Community College campus was temporarily plunged into darkness during the solar eclipse.

There was a mix of "ooos, "ahhhs," and applause as the Onondaga Community College campus suddenly went dark during the solar eclipse on the afternoon of April 8, 2024.

In the hour-and-a-half leading up to the eclipse OCC's Pep Band played, Professor Fred Jaquin and Professor Melissa Hicks explained to spectators what they were seeing, and there were eclipse-themed cookies to enjoy.

Below is a video of the West Quad in totality (press the play icon), followed by photos of members of the campus community enjoying the historic moment.
