SYRACUSE — Economic development and job creation will remain a priority for State University of New York (SUNY) campuses in the years ahead, SUNY Chancellor Nancy Zimpher says.
Zimpher was in Syracuse today for the SUNY Central New York Regional Showcase at the Sheraton Syracuse University Hotel. Representatives from eight area SUNY colleges manned displays in the hotel’s conference center outlining projects and initiatives at the schools.
A five-year tuition plan adopted by the state last year and a commitment from the state to maintain financial support for SUNY campuses at prior-year levels go a long way toward providing the system with stability, Zimpher says. And she notes that the NYSUNY 2020 Challenge Grant Program, launched last year, will help make SUNY campuses even larger economic engines.
