Post in 1966, neither the B. Davis Schwartz Memorial Library nor Humanities Hall had yet been built. Hillwood Commons, the Interfaith Center and Brookville Hall did not exist. Toni, as she is known to friends and colleagues, watched C.W.

Post on March 6. The list included Marketing Professor Srikumar Rao, who was profiled recently in TIME magazine; Alexander Dashnaw, the director of choral studies at C.W. Post and a world-renowned conductor; and lacrosse legend Tom Postel, who coached the Pioneers to a national championship in 1996 and who played for the world champion U.S. national team in 1974. Dr. Rao was profiled in TIME this April for his new book, “Are You Ready to Succeed?” and the Creativity and Personal Mastery course he has taught at C.W.

  • Stony Brook University Annual Security Report
    STONY BROOK UNIVERSITY ANNUAL SECURITY REPORT Introduction Choosing a postsecondary institution is a major decision for students and their families. Along with academic, financial and geographic considerations, the issue of campus safety is a vital concern for incoming students, as well as for faculty and staff. In 1990, Congress enacted the Crime Awareness and Campus Security Act (Title II of Public Law 101–542), which amended the Higher Education Act of 1965. This law requires all post secondary institutions participating in Title IV student financial aid programs to publicly disclose campus crime statistics and security information. 1998 amendments to the law renamed the Act the Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act in memory of Jeanne Clery, a young woman who was sexually assaulted and murdered on a college campus in 1986. The Clery Act requires higher education institutions to collect, report and disseminate crime statistics to their faculty, staff and students; to give timely warnings of crimes that represent a threat to the safety of students or employees, and to publicize their campus security policies. In this fashion, complete, accurate and timely information about safety issues is disseminated, so that students and their families can make informed decisions about the campus environment, and faculty and staff have information necessary to enhance the security and wellbeing of their workplace. Assembly and Access to Crime Statistics 34 CFR 668.46(b)(2)(ii) 34 CFR 668.46(c)(9) 34 CFR

    CELEBRATING OUR FIRST 50 YEARS STONY BROOK UNIVERSITY 1957–2007 FIFTY YEARS AGO, 148 STUDENTS CAME AS THE TRAILBLAZERS FOR THE NEW STATE UNIVERSITY COLLEGE ON LONG ISLAND The Class of 1961 was the first to graduate from the State University of New York, Long Island. Students outside Coe Hall at the Planting Fields in Oyster Bay, the site of Stony Brook University’s first campus. President Shirley Strum Kenny’s State of the University Address Presented at the University Convocation on September 19, 2007 TIME FLIES Fifty years ago, on September 17, 1957, 148 students came to Planting Fields, the William R. Coe estate in Oyster Bay, as the trailblazers for the new State University College on Long Island, or SUCOLI, later to become SUNY Long Island Center, later still SUNY Stony Brook, and now Stony Brook University. We have to believe the 148 students, 14 faculty members, and four administrators were a stunning if youngish group because they includ- ed amazing people like Frank Erk and Cliff Swartz as faculty and Les Paldy as a freshman. That first year there were three divisions: Humanities, Social Sciences, and Natural Science; in the Division of Natural Science was one chemist, two physicists, and one biology professor, Frank Erk, who also served as chair of his division. Francis Bonner, who came to SUCOLI in its second year, gives a flavor of the times in Chemistry at Stony Brook: From SUCOLI to SBU, his memoir of his years at Stony Brook: “Coe Hall is an authentic Tudor mansion whose Great Hall includes a fireplace large enough, as one visitor presciently remarked, to roast a faculty member whole.
