  • PART I — the Budget by Functional Area
    PART I THE BUDGET BY FUNCTIONAL AREA EDUCATION, LABOR AND FAMILY ASSISTANCE COUNCIL ON THE ARTS MISSION The primary responsibility for oversight and administration of the State’s artistic and cultural resources is assigned to three existing entities — the Council on the Arts, the Empire State Plaza Performing Arts Center Corporation and the New York State Theatre Institute. The 2003-04 Executive Budget proposes the establishment of the New York Institute for Cultural Education to administer a variety of statewide cultural education programs and important cultural institutions. Working together, these agencies expand access to the performing and fine arts, preserve the State’s cultural resources and promote greater public awareness of New York’s rich cultural heritage. ORGANIZATION AND STAFFING The Council on the Arts is headed by a Chair and a Vice Chair and consists of 20 members nominated for 5-year terms by the Governor with confirmation by the Senate. The Council’s staff, headed by an Executive Director, is organized into an Administrative Division and a Program Division, both located in New York City. The Council has expertise in several major artistic disciplines (including dance, theater and music) and provides advisory services and financial assistance to New York’s arts community. During 2003-04, the Council on the Arts will have a workforce of 52 for the review, processing and administration of arts grants and loans to nonprofit organizations. The Empire State Plaza Performing Arts Center Corporation (the “Egg”) was established in 1979 as a public benefit corporation to administer a performing arts center in Albany that offers a diverse array of cultural and artistic programming.

  • Mega Conferences
    Non-revenue sports Football, of course, provides the impetus for any conference realignment. In men's basketball, coaches will lose the built-in recruiting tool of playing near home during conference play and then at Madison Square Garden for the Big East Tournament. But what about the rest of the sports? Here's a look at the potential Missouri Pittsburgh Syracuse Nebraska Ohio State Northwestern Minnesota Michigan St. Wisconsin Purdue State Penn Michigan Iowa Indiana Illinois future of the non-revenue sports at Rutgers if it joins the Big Ten: BASEBALL Now: Under longtime head coach Fred Hill Sr., the Scarlet Knights made the Rutgers NCAA Tournament four times last decade. The Big East Conference’s national clout was hurt by the defection of Miami in 2004. The last conference team to make the College World Series was Louisville in 2007. After: Rutgers could emerge as the class of the conference. You find the best baseball either down South or out West. The power conferences are the ACC, Pac-10 and SEC. A Big Ten team has not made the CWS since Michigan in 1984. MEN’S CROSS COUNTRY Now: At the Big East championships in October, Rutgers finished 12th out of 14 teams. Syracuse won the Big East title and finished 14th at nationals. Four other Big East schools made the Top 25. After: The conferences are similar. Wisconsin won the conference title and took seventh at nationals. Two other schools made the Top 25. MEN’S GOLF Now: The Scarlet Knights have made the NCAA Tournament twice since 1983.

    Maple Hill Junior Paw Print Issue 4 June 2021 Peter Gannon, President and CEO of the United Way of the Greater Capital Region, takes a selfie with students during the kick-off of the two-day visit of the Covid Mural, Still Life with Gratitude, by Rachel Baxter and Poem, “What We Have Now,” by D. Colin, on May 13 and 14, 2021. Here is a sampling of Covid Mural and Poem writings from students. An acrostic poem by Cain Stone, grade 7 Many flowers Using many meanings. Remembrance And Life with gratitude. A tricube poem by Nava Schuerholz, grade 7 Lilacs and forget-me- nots can help people to remember those who have suffered during the pandemic. A reflection from the Mural’s Perspective by Gabe Price, grade 7 I arrived at Maple Hill High School on a sunny day. I was set up outside in their outside classroom. I was lonely until the children came to visit. The first class came down with older students. They loved looking at me and even put round stickers on me.I heard the kids talking and most kids thought I was interesting. I think I am important because I represent a disease that is going around. I support all that were affected. I love my moons which represent time. I am happy we are now getting closer to everyone not needing a mask. I have never seen anyone without a mask ! I love that I am a collection of bright flowers. One of the stickers was from a seventh grade boy who made a picture of a virus and crossed it out.
