There is either an internal crisis Uin a regime or public crisis and chaos. It is indeed a year of dispute and conflict, and it seems to me that no one is safe. When a neighbor’s house burns down, the house next door will be affected by smoke. I believe that all people want to live in peace and prosperity, but when this hope is not being realized, and especially when the poor get poorer and corruption is widespread, an explosion occurs. It is a natural end for desperate people. When a public movement turns into a news report on television channels, then the situation becomes an embarrassment for the political authority.

  • School Budget Rises, Tops $40 Million Mark
    Volume 114113, Number 6 Thursday, February 10, 2000 60 Cents School budget rises, tops $40 million mark The cost of operating the township school system will pass the $40 mil- lion mark next year under terms of the 2000-2001 school budget tenta- tively adopted by the Board of Edu- cation at its meeting Monday night. Total spending, under the budget presented Monday by Superinten- dent of Schools James Donovan and district administrators, will be $40,201,844—$3.14 million higher than the current year’s costs. The tentative budget will be reviewed, and possibly revised, by various board committees before a final draft is presented for public discussion and board adoption at the board’s March 27 meeting. Adopting of the $40.2 million budget would require an 11-point increase in the school tax rate. For the owner of a property assessed at $250,000, the average assessment in the township, that would mean a tax increase of $275 and would bring Staff photo by Eveline Speedie the average school tax bill to $5,075.

  • Nj Consortium Develops Mobile Medical Unit Executive Summary a Message from Njit President Joel S
    FALL 2020 MAGAZINE HIGHLANDER GRADS SOAR DESPITE TURBULENT TIMES NJIT APPOINTS NEW VICE PROVOST AND CHIEF INFORMATION OFFICER NJ CONSORTIUM DEVELOPS MOBILE MEDICAL UNIT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY A MESSAGE FROM NJIT PRESIDENT JOEL S. BLOOM STORIES OF SUCCESS s we enter the fall season, our country remains gripped by the COVID-19 pandemic and its devastating effects. At NJIT, though, we are heartened A by the many ways in which our university community has responded with an unrelenting focus and dedication, which we reported on in the spring/summer issue of NJIT Magazine. Our success has continued. When NJIT moved swiftly to remote instruction in March — to ensure the health and safety of students, faculty and staff — our graduating seniors deftly balanced finishing their coursework with launching their careers. Under trying circumstances, they persevered and began the next chapter of their lives. Many landed positions at prominent companies, including American Express, Google and Facebook, while others went on to pursue advanced degrees in fields ranging from entomology and astronomy to medicine and structural engineering. In this issue, we highlight a handful of this year’s Highlander graduates. Another noteworthy achievement is NJIT’s collaboration with University Hospital in Newark and The Tuchman Foundation in developing modular, mobile medical care facilities for rapid deployment to regions in need of health care infrastructure and challenged by disease outbreaks and other disasters. These modules, fabricated from 40-foot-long repurposed shipping containers, include customizable internal environments that can be configured for a variety of medical needs. Created in response to clinical capacity constraints posed by the pandemic, the modules were tested in July through patient-care simulations at University Hospital and proved highly effective.
