Suvro K. Banerjee My Name Is Suvro Banerjee and I Am Asking for Your Suvro K. Banerjee My name is Suvro Banerjee and I am asking for your support as I run for re-election to the Board of Managers, where I currently hold the position of Secretary. I have a somewhat unique perspective on life at Village Mall: My parents were some of the first homeowners at the complex when Building I opened in January of 197 4, and my family has lived here continuously since then. We now own two units in Building I and one in Building II. Many things have changed during the 45 years since my family first moved in, but Village Mall has always remained a wonderful place to live and raise a family. I would like to help us remain a vibrant, friendly community and that is why I am running for re-election. I am a New York State Certified Public Accountant (CPA) and a Certified Fraud Examiner (CFE). As a born and raised Queens resident, I spent all my school years in Queens and Manhattan including attending Stuyvesant High School. I have a bachelor's and master's degree in Math from New York University (NYU) and another master's degree in Accounting from Pace University. I started my accounting career at KPMG in 2001 after teaching Math at NYU for 5 years. Since 2004, I have held high-level accounting positions at organizations such as the New York State Society of CPAs, and the City University of New York (CUNY). I am currently an Assistant Professor of Accounting at Borough of Manhattan Community College (BMCC). I was first appointed to the Board in 2015 because, during my career, I have successfully dealt with many of the issues that faced Village Mall then, such as capital improvements, contract negotiations and the creation and monitoring of budget projections. I ran for election in 2016 and won a 3-year term because of my ability to work successfully with other Board members, even though I did not always agree with them. I believe it is important to hear all the different perspectives there are on an issue that affects all of us. I also believe every homeowner should be treated with respect, something which I did not feel always occurred before I joined the Board. I have also been a Director on several volunteer Boards including Pace University's Lubin School of Business Alumni Board of Directors since 2001. These roles have taught me how to collaborate with other Board members to accomplish goals. Over the past few years, Village Mall's financial situation has been made stronger than it has ever been by cutting costs, saving diligently, and investing wisely. I was actively involved in the retention of new legal counsel and hiring our current manager, as well as achieving reverse mortgages for our seniors and retirees. I have looked at the costs for Local Law 11 signed by a prior Board and found flaws, which I hope to help prevent when negotiating the up-coming garage overhaul. In the structural and technical fields many accomplishments have been made. Aesthetically, I look forward to our lobby renovations finally getting underway. I am proud to say that I have been involved in these and many other projects and would like to continue my work on behalf of the Village Mall community. I hope you'll give me that opportunity by voting for me. Thank you for your time. .

Fordham Rd., Bronx, NY 10458, 718-817-4485 [email protected] ABSTRACT We describe a cognitive vision system for a mobile robot. This system works in a manner similar to the human vision system, using saccadic, vergence and pursuit movements to extract information from visual input. At each fixation, the system builds a 3D model of a small region, combining information about distance, shape, texture and motion. These 3D models are embedded within an overall 3D model of the robot's environment. This approach turns the computer vision problem into a search problem, with the goal of constructing a physically realistic model of the entire environment.

  • My Name Is Leonie Haimson
    This letter, written by Class Size Matters and Advocates for Children in Feb. 2004, protesting the Mayor’s proposal to hold back students on the basis of their test scores was signed by 107 eminent academics, researchers, and national experts on testing who say that such a policy is unfair and unreliable, and is likely to lead to lower achievement and higher drop out rates.1 The signers included four past presidents of the American Education Research Association, the nation’s premier organization of educational researchers, as well as the chair of the National Academy of Sciences Committee on the Appropriate Use of Educational Testing, and several members of the Board on Testing and Assessment of the National Research Council. Signers also included Dr. T. Berry Brazelton, renowned pediatrician and author of numerous works on child care and development, Robert Tobias, former head of Division of Assessment and Accountability for the Board of Education and now Director of the Center for Research on Teaching and Learning at NYU, and Dr. Ernest House, who did the independent evaluation of New York City’s failed “Gates” retention program in the 1980’s. Even the two companies that produce the third grade tests are on record that a decision to hold back a child should never be based upon test scores alone. February 11, 2004 Dear Mayor Bloomberg and Chancellor Klein: We ask that you reconsider and withdraw your proposal to retain 3rd grade students on the basis of test scores. All of the major educational research and testing organizations oppose using test results as the sole criterion for advancement or retention, since judging a particular student on the basis of a single exam is an inherently unreliable and an unfair measure of his or her actual level of achievement.

  • Application, Admission, and Matriculation to New York City's
    PATHWAYS TO AN ELITE EDUCATION: APPLICATION, ADMISSION, AND MATRICULATION TO NEW YORK CITY’S SPECIALIZED HIGH SCHOOLS Sean Patrick Corcoran Abstract (corresponding author) New York City’s public specialized high schools have a long Steinhardt School of Culture, history of offering a rigorous, college preparatory education Education, and Human to the city’s most academically talented students. Though im- Development mensely popular and highly selective, their policy of admitting New York University students using a single entrance exam has raised questions about New York, NY 10003 diversity and equity in access. In this paper, we provide a de- scriptive analysis of the “pipeline” from middle school to ma- [email protected] triculation at a specialized high school, identifying group-level differences in application, admission, and enrollment. In doing E. Christine Baker-Smith so, we highlight potential points of intervention to improve ac- Steinhardt School of Culture, cess for underrepresented groups. Controlling for other measures Education, and Human of prior achievement, we find black, Hispanic, low-income, and Development female students are significantly less likely to qualify for admis- New York University sion to a specialized high school. Differences in application and New York, NY 10003 matriculation rates also affect the diversity in these schools, and christine.baker-smith@nyu we find evidence of middle school “effects” on both application .edu and admission. Simulated policies that offer admissions using alternative measures, such as state test scores and grades, sug- gest many more girls, Hispanics, and white students would be admitted under these alternatives. They would not, however, ap- preciably increase the share of offers given to black or low-income students.

  • Stuyvesant High School Parents' Association
    Stuyvesant High School Parents' Association Executive Board of the Stuyvesant High School Parents’ Association December 2018 Statement Regarding Proposed Changes to New York City Specialized High School Admissions 1) An intense debate has been taking place since the referral to the floor of the New York State Legislature in June 2018 of a bill (A10427A/S08503-A)1 that would change the admissions process for New York City’s specialized high schools by amending the section of the New York State Education Law (§2590G, Subdivision 12) that is commonly referred to as the “Hecht-Calandra Act.”2 Under the proposed legislation, for which the stated purpose is increased diversity in the specialized high schools, the Specialized High School Admissions Test (SHSAT) would be phased out entirely over a period of three years as the means of admitting applicants to the specialized high schools and would be replaced by an admissions process that would make offers to the top 7% of students from each New York City public middle school.3 2) The Executive Board of the Stuyvesant High School Parents’ Association recognizes and respects the strongly held opinions that accompany this debate on all sides of the discussion. We support the goal of expanded diversity at Stuyvesant and the other specialized high schools, including increasing Black and Latino/a enrollment. However, we oppose Bill A10427A/S08503-A as a means to accomplish that goal, based on concerns that have been raised as part of the public discussion. We support an admissions process for New York City’s specialized high schools that is fully objective and transparent, that ensures fair and equitable treatment of all New York City students, and that enables those schools to maintain the academic standards and successes that characterize them today.
