Harnessing the Promise of Guest curators National Association of Women Artists member Joan Greenfield B.A. ’78, M.A. ’81, and renowned African American artist Faith Ringgold at the Personal Totems reception New Technology At virtually every stage in the emergence of communications technology, experts have made bold forecasts about the dramatic consequences for education. Educational television was predicted to replace live teachers by beaming images of world-class experts to every classroom with an electrical outlet. Faster personal computers were expected to make students more efficient learners. With the Internet’s emergence came renewed predictions that digital learning would supplant live teachers and classes. Corporate and academic leaders rushed to establish footholds in the Wild West of Web learning. A few soared; many did not. Those that succeeded have realized that while the role of the teacher may have changed, great teaching and active learning are as vital as ever.

New course management systems and other online programs allow students and faculty to create and edit audio and video files. As a consequence, students believe interactive technology helps improve learning, inspires more engagement in learning, allows greater control over assignments, facilitates research and collaboration, and results in faster feedback from faculty. This new power for students to be active participants in their education is not without challenge. Students must still learn how to validate what is purported to be true, and faculty need new tools to catch plagiarism. But these challenges can be and are being met. What next?

  • DOWLING COLLEGE Financial Statements June 30
    DOWLING COLLEGE Financial Statements June 30, 2008 and 2007 (With Independent Auditors’ Report Thereon) KPMG LLP 345 Park Avenue New York, NY 10154 Independent Auditors’ Report The Board of Trustees Dowling College: We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Dowling College (the College) as of June 30, 2008 and 2007, and the related statements of activities and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the College’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit also includes consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the College’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Dowling College as of June 30, 2008 and 2007, and the changes in its net assets and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with U.S.

  • Conferral of Degrees: Glasgow Caledonian New York College and Dowling College
    THE STATE EDUCATION DEPARTMENT / THE UNIVERSITY OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK / ALBANY, NY 12234 TO: The Honorable the Members of the Board of Regents FROM: William P. Murphy SUBJECT: Conferral of Degrees: Glasgow Caledonian New York College and Dowling College DATE: May 27, 2021 AUTHORIZATION(S): SUMMARY Issue for Decision (Consent Agenda) Should the Board of Regents confer degrees upon students successfully completing programs at Glasgow Caledonian New York College and Dowling College? Reason(s) for Consideration Required by State statute and State regulation. Proposed Handling This question will come before the Full Board at its June 2021 meeting, where it will be voted on and action taken. Procedural History Not applicable Background Information Section 208 of the Education Law gives the Regents the authority to make awards in certain circumstances. By statute and regulation, institutions of higher education that have provisional charters do not have authority to award degrees. Until such time as a charter is made absolute, the Board of Regents awards degrees on behalf of provisionally chartered institutions. In the case of closed institutions of higher education, in order to hold students harmless, the Board of Regents awards degrees to eligible students who complete the requirements for their registered degree programs at other institutions, for specified periods of time. BR (CA) 5 Glasgow Caledonian New York College Glasgow Caledonian New York College, located at 64 Wooster Street, New York, New York, was granted a provisional charter by the Board of Regents on June 13, 2017. Glasgow Caledonian New York College offers Master of Science (M.S.) degrees in (1) Business for Social Impact and Sustainability (former title: Impact-Focused Business and Investing); (2) Sustainable Fashion (former title: International Fashion Marketing); and (3) Risk, Resilience, and Integrity Management.
