SUNY Cortland (Cortland, NY)

SUNY Cortland has several reportedly haunted sites on its campus.  On the window sill of room 716 in the Clark  dorm building, the spirit of a football player is seen.  He is still wearing his football uniform and seems to be bleeding from a gash above his eyebrow.
Brockway Hall, a dining facility on the campus, is another haunted site.  Early one morning when one of the cooks was making coffee an old man was seen standing at the top of the stairs.  The cook asked if he needed any assistance but the man just turned without saying a word and disappeared.  upon investigation, no man was found anywhere near the dining hall.
In the early eighties a student living in Cheney Hall was pushed out the fourth floor window by her boyfriend and was killed.  A mural was created in her honor.  Students living on the fourth floor who view that mural are said to feel very uneasy, as if someone is watching them.  Students also report seeing  a misty apparition of a female with outstretched arms that disappears as soon as it is given a second glance.
There are no reports as to why, but there are also claims that Degroat Hall is haunted.  It could be because there is a sort of tunnel that leads from Degroat Hall to Brockway Hall where the man was seen by the cook.
