Hello,
friends and colleagues,
It
is time once again to take a few minutes out of our busy schedules to recognize
the many great things happening on the Alfred State campus and the folks making
them happen!
I
would also like to take this opportunity to update you on the SUNY Strategic
Plan and the impact of New York State's financial woes on the college.
The
good news is that Chancellor Nancy Zimpher's strategic planning initiative is
going very well. As a result of her whirlwind 64-campus tour during the
summer, the Chancellor collected data and recognized emerging themes relative
to all 64 campuses. Read the complete message from the president.
Warm regards,
John Anderson |
