2020 Annual Report
Annual Report On Behalf of the Board of Trustees of New York Institute of Technology, thank you for helping us provide our students with the best education possible. To invest in higher education is to invest in our shared future—one that will be shaped (and reshaped) by the tech-savvy college students that you’ll find in our classrooms, incubators, maker spaces, and laboratories. Over the past year, we’ve tried to mitigate additional barriers to entry with our test-optional admissions policies, extended deadlines, and generous financial aid packages, but we still need to find new ways to deliver on our mission to offer access to opportunity. Your generosity continues to fuel our students’ learning experiences and professional development, helping them find solutions for the challenges of the 21st century, including those that have impacted them and all of us since March 2020. By making, doing, and innovating, they are discovering solutions that we, and the world at large, will benefit from. We are proud to fill an important niche in higher education, one that provides a tremendous opportunity to those who may think they cannot afford a college education. Our faculty serve as inspiring mentors who share their expertise while encouraging students to aspire to do great things. Our ever-increasing technology-infused, innovative, industry-grade resources and tools ensure that our students are “work ready” even before they graduate. Thanks to your support, the resources and unique classroom and cocurricular research and entrepreneurial experiences that we are able to offer our students will afford them a competitive edge as they jump-start their careers immediately upon graduation and sustain them throughout their careers. We also hope that your generosity during their time as students will instill in them the importance of giving back to causes bigger than themselves. Your support changes the lives of others in a meaningful way. Thank you again for all you do for our students and for New York Tech. Regards,

As it has since opened in 1955, New York Institute of Technology strives to create an open, inclusive, and forward-thinking learning environment. Each year, generous donations help sustain the university’s momentum as it welcomes new groups of students and prepares them to answer the most pressing challenges we face today and in the future. e contributions of our donors provide student funding, build facilities, support research and scholarship, and improve in astructure and technology-related services, among other critical needs. 2020 proved to be a year like no other. As COVID-19 disrupted daily life, schools, and business, universities across the country responded by making significant adjustments and quickly shiing to remote learning. But the pandemic exacerbated other issues, including food insecurity and access to resources. rough donations, New York Tech was able to address these issues with the establishment of Bear Bytes and the Student Emer- gency Fund. Here’s a quick recap of how your donations supported our students and helped them do, make, inno- Donations vate, and reinvent the future. at Work nyit.edu/giving | 3 1 Fighting Food Insecurity
Food insecurity is not something we generally think of when it comes to college students. Our memories take us to the cafeteria line, where we piled our plates high with items of the day. But that is not always how it is for college stu- dents. For those who come from underserved communities, those who are living far from home, or those who struggle to pay for college themselves, basic needs can sometimes be a luxury. For many, the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic added to that stress. New York Institute of Technology has initiated ways to help these individuals get the food and other services they need. And thanks to generous donors, these programs have grown and multiplied, giving New York Tech students not only security but also the reassuring fact that they are cared “This type of financial for by a wider community. support is life-changing e Grizzly Cupboard opened on October 1, 2020, as an inclusive, welcoming, and con dential resource to for most students. students.

Over a two-week period in late March 2020, the Student Emergency Fund was created as a way to assist students who are impacted nancially by unforeseen circumstances during a disaster or crisis such as COVID-19. To help with immediate needs, a one-time grant of $500 is provided to students who apply and are approved. e funds can be used in a variety of ways, including for unexpected travel expenses back home, academic books or supplies, loss of childcare services, homelessness due to loss of housing for the student (and dependents), overdue bills, eyeglasses and “When I saw that New similar necessities, and o site storage. “When I saw that New York Tech had created the York Tech had created emergency fund and Bear Bytes, it brought home to me the emergency fund and how much New York Tech cares about its students and their families,” said Ryo.

Donors such as Ryo have long made a nancial impact, but they have truly risen to the occasion in the wake of the pandemic. She appreciates the fact that her donation helps students in a variety of ways. “Scholarships are being provided to students; students are receiving assistance with access to food; emergency funds are available as well for urgent needs,” she said. Blake concurred. “Emergency funding coupled with sharing additional resources and information on how to access food, receive assistance with housing, and other necessities have become essential to supporting student success.” e generosity of donors and New York Tech’s out- reach to assist students shows the importance placed on “In today’s world, students’ well-being, according to Brendan Smoller, an especially with COVID, it undergraduate who is studying digital lm and television production on the Long Island campus. “One of the best is extremely important things about New York Tech is the sense of community.” to help students achieve e university strives to make students feel connected and engaged, although that has been dicult during the their success.” pandemic. “It’s heartening to see our school take steps to make students know that they’re still there for them,” Smoller says. “ ese are tough times.

In addition to funds that give students access to basic necessities, especially in times of great need, New York Tech donors are also making an impact on their experiences in the classroom and beyond. Alumni and non-alumni donors alike nd speci c ways to make an impact on the lives of current and future students. John Rebecchi (M.B.A. ’83) has been o ering his time, treasure, and talents to New York Tech students for more than 10 years. “Aer my partners and I sold our business, I increased donations in recent years,” he said. As a donor, Rebecchi has been able to guide where his funding will go so that it has a lasting impact. “I am proud to have provided funding for the School of Management’s Professional Enrichment program,” he noted. e Pro- fessional Enrichment program provides opportunities for students to participate in seminars and one-to-one meetings and to gain real-world tools to succeed in business. “Donations provide direct nancial assistance and are used to enhance and expand the learning experience for students,” Rebecchi added.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, it has been import- ant for colleges and universities in the United States to develop ways of keeping students engaged and provid- ing them with what is most needed for the best possible college experience.

Other times, it involves introducing them to opportunities outside of campus that they might not “As a member of the otherwise have, especially in the era of remote learning university community, and working.

“ARMED” WITH INNOVATION As part of a senior design project, four undergraduate electrical and computer engineering students overcame the challenges of a global pandemic to reinvent the future. Under the guidance of Associate Professor Aydin Farajidavar, Ph.D., they built a functioning robotic arm. When COVID-19 forced campuses into remote learning, and the world became well- acquainted with social distancing, the group pivoted quickly, working in shifts of two people at a time in two places: a student’s home and the senior design lab in Harry Schure Hall. Group members wore masks when they were together, and all other communication was done remotely.

STUDENTS’ MARKETING MIGHT Each year, the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP) organizes a series of walks to raise awareness and funds. This year, the Long Island Chapter shifted to a virtual/socially distanced drive-in movie event at Jones Beach. Students in the College of Arts and Sciences enrolled in ProdCo, a student-run video production company, and the Carleton Group, a student-run advertising and public relations company, produced a 30-minute video and advertising campaign for the reimagined event. “I don’t think we realized how much of a role the students would actually play in creating the event. But as our plans progressed, the importance of the logo, the social media campaign, and the video being created, became clear,” said Ann Morrison, Long Island area director for AFSP. “The video produced WAS the event.”
