    INVESTIGATIVE REPORT BY JEFF ANDERSON & ASSOCIATES – VOLUME I ALAN PLACA: KEY ARCHITECT OF MINIMIZING ABUSE CLAIMS, COERCING SILENCE AND PROTECTING CHURCH ASSETS Investigative Report by Jeff Anderson & Associates: Volume I Alan Placa: Key Architect of Minimizing Abuse Claims, Coercing Silence and Protecting Church Assets Purpose, Background & Disclaimer It is believed that the Catholic Dioceses of New York and Religious Orders operating in New York do not make available to the public the full history, knowledge, and context of the sexually abusive clerics nor its coverup of the abuse. The public’s need to know of the danger both past and present and the role of instrumental figures is paramount. This report is created with the intent of warning the public of dangerous practices and conditions and of those who would deceive the public of that danger. This report is intended to raise awareness about the important issue of clerical sexual abuse and provide the public with vital information for public benefit. The information contained in this report is an attempt to compile information already available from various sources in the public media, public sources, government records, court records, church records and other publicly available sources that have chronicled this information for public use. These sources have not been independently verified and accordingly may contain inaccuracies and omissions. The currently pending civil lawsuits referred to have been filed under the New York Child Victims Act. The claims made in these lawsuits and the other lawsuits referred to in this report have not been fully adjudicated by the court. All alleged perpetrators are presumed innocent until proven guilty.

    A Random Assignment Evaluation of Learning Communities at Kingsborough Community College: Seven Years Later Michael J. Weiss Alexander Mayer Dan Cullinan Alyssa Ratledge Colleen Sommo John Diamond March 2014 Acknowledgments The long-term follow-up study at Kingsborough Community College’s Opening Doors Learn- ing Communities program, presented in this paper, was supported by the Institute of Education Sciences, U.S. Department of Education, through Grant No. R305A100066-11 to MDRC. The opinions expressed are those of the authors and do not represent the views of the Institute or the U.S. Department of Education. We are very appreciative of the Institute’s generous support. The original work on the Opening Doors demonstration received support from a number of foundations and government agencies. We are grateful for their generous backing and ongoing commitment. We particularly thank the Robin Hood Foundation, which provided special fund- ing to support the Opening Doors program at Kingsborough Community College. We also owe special thanks to the members of the MacArthur Foundation-funded Network on Transitions to Adulthood and to our research partners on Opening Doors, who helped us conceptualize the study and who participated in the design of the 12-month survey. We are also grateful to the many administrators, faculty, and staff at Kingsborough who have made Opening Doors a success. There is not enough space to mention everyone who has played a role in the program and the study, but we particularly want to acknowledge some individuals. The leadership of Byron McClenney, the president of Kingsborough through 2003, was crucial in successfully launching the program.

Looking back at that young girl who graduated from the school in June of 1969, I can’t help but consider the tremendous influence that the school had upon me and my life’s choices and work. AMSU is where I learned about leadership that was grounded in an obligation to serve others. Much like many of our current students, I was the first in my family to attend college. I credit my experiences at the Mount for setting me on a path that opened the door to numerous possibilities and a rich and rewarding career in education that was always predicated on the principle of Serviam.

  • Acknowledgments
    Acknowledgments THis BOOK EXists because countless people were kind enough to share their insights and expertise with me over the years. I’d especially like to thank Sam Goodman, Mark Caldwell, Thomas Mellins, Lloyd Ultan, Evelyn Gonzalez, Mark Naison, Jerome Charyn, Marshall Berman, Leonard Kriegel, Arthur Gelb, Avery Corman, James Crocker, Gelvin Stevenson, Deborah Dash Moore, and Robert Caro, all of whom were exceptionally generous with their time and did a great deal to help clarify my thinking about the evolving world of the Grand Concourse. I am indebted beyond words to Stephen Sinon, head of information services and archives at the LuEsther T. Mertz Library of the New York Botanical Garden, who served as my research assistant. Stephen not only unearthed every document I asked for, he also directed me to countless others that made this book richer and more informative. And given his yeoman work collecting images and acquiring the sometimes elusive rights to them, he is the one most responsible for the illustrations. I am also deeply indebted to those who were kind enough to critique all or parts of my manuscript and offered invaluable suggestions; in addi- tion to Mark Caldwell, Sam Goodman, Thomas Mellins, and Lloyd Ultan, they include Jim Rasenberger, Manette Berlinger, and my New York Times colleagues Mitch Keller and John Oudens. I’m grateful to Mimi Vang Olsen for sharing the story of her father, Kourken Hovsepian, and his priceless photographs of generations of West Bronx families, a collection that I hope someday finds a public
