  • ECC Board of Trustees
    ECC Board of Trustees Executive Summary Date: December 13, 2018 Subcommittee: Consent Agenda Agenda Item: Agreement for Consultant Services requested between SUNY Erie and the Buffalo Public Schools for the New York State Pathways in Technology-3 (P-Tech-3) BESOLAR grant program to align with the college’s Computer and Electronics Technology A.A.S. degree program This item is: For Board's Approval Backup Documentation: Attached to this document Background Information: The Buffalo Public School system was awarded funding through the New York State Education Department’s P-Tech BESOLAR grant program. From Fall 2016 through Fall 2021, each year a new freshman cohort at South Park High School begins in the grant. Starting in grade 10, each cohort begins taking SUNY Erie Advanced Studies courses at South Park. The P-Tech grant covers the cost of student tuition outside of the contract. This contract will cover costs associated with tours and student visits to SUNY Erie, curriculum development and SUNY Erie faculty and staff partner visits for the period August 1, 2018 through June 30, 2019. Reasons for Recommendation: Students will have the opportunity to earn SUNY Erie credits through taking course work aligned with the Computer and Electronics Technology A.A.S. degree program. This will facilitate a pipeline of students to matriculate into this degree program at the college. P-Tech grants are awarded throughout New York State through the Department of Education. Fiscal Implications: As the consultant, SUNY Erie will receive up to $9,950. Consequences of Negative Action: Inability to meet grant outcomes.

  • Guest Speaker Presentation Topics
    2017 Guest Speaker Presentation Topics P a g e | 1 Explore Buffalo Guest Speaker Program COST: $75 Includes a one hour presentation, featuring a 45-minute talk followed by 15 minutes for discussion/Q&A. PLEASE NOTE: Talk availability is subject to the availability of our volunteer docents. We will do our best to accommodate your preferences. Talk Topics Abraham Lincoln in Buffalo & Western New York Buffalo’s presidential history is arguably the country’s most significant, with exception of Washington D.C. We are well aware that Millard Fillmore and Grover Cleveland were residents and political stalwarts of Buffalo when elected, and that William McKinley was assassinated and Theodore Roosevelt was inaugurated here in September 1901. But what about Abraham Lincoln? Is there a chapter in Western New York’s presidential book regarding his presence and legacy? This talk will reveal the answers to these questions as it describes Lincoln’s four visits to Buffalo and Western New York. Art’s Up: The Buffalo Fine Arts Academy (BFAA) and its Impact Near and Far The parent organization of the Albright-Knox Art Gallery is the BFAA which was established in 1862 and for over 150 years has been an ambassador for Buffalo — locally, nationally, and globally. In this talk, we will briefly review BFAA’s history, including key events and “firsts” such as being the first major art museum to have a woman director. We’ll focus on a selection of people throughout the years who’ve had significant influence, such as our own “Monuments Men” who helped recover Nazi-looted art during World War II.
