I am Helene Weinstein, 4 chair of the New York State Assembly Ways and 5 Means Committee and cochair of today's 6 hearing. 7 Today we begin the sixth in a series 8 of hearings conducted by the joint fiscal 9 committees of the Legislature regarding the 10 Governor's proposed budget for fiscal year 11 2020-2021. The hearings are conducted 12 pursuant to the New York State 13 Constitution and the Legislative Law. 14 Today the Assembly Ways and Means 15 Committee and the Senate Finance Committee 16 will hear testimony concerning the Governor's 17 budget proposal for higher education. 18 I'll introduce members of the Assembly 19 majority, and Senator Krueger, chair of 20 Senate Finance, will introduce members from 21 the Senate. 22 So we have with us our chair of the 23 Higher Education Committee, Deborah Glick; 24 Assemblyman Pichardo, Assemblyman Epstein, 7 1 Assemblyman Stirpe, and Assemblywoman Fahy. 2 Senator Krueger? 3 CHAIRWOMAN KRUEGER: Good morning. 4 Thank you, everyone. 5 I'm joined by the chair of Higher Ed, 6 Toby Stavisky; the ranker on Higher Ed, 7 John {sic} LaValle; the ranker on Finance, 8 Jim Seward; Senator Andrew Gounardes; and 9 Senator Anna Kaplan. And I know I saw 10 Senator Liu, but I think he's disappeared and 11 will come back. 12 Thank you. Oh, I'm sorry, Ken 13 LaValle, how -- excuse me, Ken. 14 SENATOR LaVALLE: That's all right. 15 CHAIRWOMAN WEINSTEIN: Nobody will 16 forget, Senator. 17 So before introducing the first 18 witness, a couple of ground rules for all of 19 the hearings that we've gone through at the 20 beginning. We have these countdown clocks, 21 both for the witnesses and for the members to 22 pay attention to. There will be a green 23 light when your time starts. When there's 24 one minute left, the light turns -- as the 8 1 clock goes down to one minute, the light 2 turns yellow. And when it's red, it means 3 thank you and goodbye. 4 (Laughter.) 5 CHAIRWOMAN WEINSTEIN: No. But you 6 can always finish your last sentence, please. 7 And witnesses, particularly those 8 nongovernmental witnesses, are reminded that 9 we do have your testimony, which was 10 submitted electronically in advance, it's 11 been circulated to all the members. So we 12 encourage you to not read your testimony, but 13 summarize. 14 A lot of people think they can get 15 through several pages in five minutes. We're 16 here to tell you you can't. And if you have 17 your important point at the end of your 18 testimony, you'll never get to it. So make 19 sure to highlight your important parts. 20 And to the members, just timing, 21 chairs of the relevant committee have 22 10 minutes. They are the only ones allowed a 23 follow-up of five minutes after everyone has 24 gone. All other members have five minutes. 9 1 And when we get to the nongovernmental 2 witnesses, the members have three minutes. 3 And the time is for both questions and 4 answers. 5 So now I'll introduce our ranker, 6 Assemblyman Ra, to introduce his Republican 7 colleagues. 8 ASSEMBLYMAN RA: Thank you. 9 We're joined this morning by 10 Assemblyman Doug Smith, our ranking member on 11 the Higher Education Committee, and 12 Assemblyman Jake Ashby. 13 CHAIRWOMAN WEINSTEIN: So with that, 14 we are anxious to begin our hearing. And our 15 first witness, Kristina Johnson, chancellor, 16 State University of New York. Please. 17 CHANCELLOR JOHNSON: Thank you. 18 Good morning. It's a pleasure to be 19 here. And I'd like to start off by saying 20 that I will keep to the time. 21 And I'd also like to thank you for all 22 your support that you've provided, both the 23 Governor and the Legislature. I really feel 24 SUNY has tremendous momentum. And so what 10 1 I'd like to do today is, for the record, I am 2 Kristina Johnson, the 13th chancellor of the 3 State University of New York. And I'd like 4 to personally thank Chairpersons Krueger, 5 Weinstein, Stavisky and Glick, members of the 6 Senate and Assembly and legislative staff, 7 for the opportunity to share with you our 8 perspective on Governor Cuomo's proposed 9 Executive Budget, the progress we've made 10 since last year's hearing, and our plans for 11 the future. 12 I'd also like to acknowledge and thank 13 Chairman of the Board Dr. Meryl Tisch and our 14 entire Board of Trustees for their leadership 15 and support, and particularly our student 16 trustee -- who's president of the Student 17 Assembly of the 1.4 million students in the 18 State University of New York -- and that is 19 Austin Ostro, who is here today as well; my 20 leadership team, who is seated behind me; and 21 of course all of the people that keep our 22 system moving forward -- the students, the 23 faculty, staff and our leadership teams 24 across the system. 11 1 Last fall I had the pleasure of 2 finalizing visits to every single one of the 3 SUNY institutions, all 64, and really got a 4 chance to see the size, the scope, the 5 breadth and the diversity of the quality that 6 goes into the 30 community colleges, the 7 29 state-operated colleges, the five 8 statutory, the law school, the medical 9 schools, the hospitals -- even the national 10 laboratory. 11 We are involved in all kinds of 12 activities, ranging from scholarship research 13 to workforce development, carrying out the 14 Governor's robust initiative. We deliver 15 320,000 non-credit-bearing courses to our 16 community college students. That's in 17 addition to the couple of hundred thousand 18 community college students that are enrolled, 19 and the couple of hundred thousand enrolled 20 in our four-year institutions as well.

Bus Driver Fatigue and Stress Issues Study Final Report November 18, 1999 I INTRODUCTION Arrowhead Space and Telecommunications, Inc. conducted a research project to identify unique aspects of operations within the motorcoach industry which may produce bus driver fatigue and stress. Funding for and oversight of the study was provided by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), Office of Motor Carriers (OMC). The purpose of this study is to (1) identify from direct interaction with motorcoach owners, safety directors, operations managers, and drivers those fatigue-inducing stresses which they believe are unique to the motorcoach industry; (2) evaluate the relative influence of these stresses on bus driver fatigue; (3) provide relevant feedback to the FHWA/OMC for its use in future decisions which will affect the motorcoach industry; and (4) develop an outreach video to help motorcoach drivers understand the effects of fatigue, the stresses that induce it, and means to reduce it.

    THE SEARCH FOR THE "MANCHURIAN CANDIDATE" THE CIA AND MIND CONTROL John Marks Allen Lane Allen Lane Penguin Books Ltd 17 Grosvenor Gardens London SW1 OBD First published in the U.S.A. by Times Books, a division of Quadrangle/The New York Times Book Co., Inc., and simultaneously in Canada by Fitzhenry & Whiteside Ltd, 1979 First published in Great Britain by Allen Lane 1979 Copyright <£> John Marks, 1979 All rights reserved. No part of this publication may be reproduced, stored in a retrieval system, or transmitted in any form or by any means, electronic, mechanical, photocopying, recording or otherwise, without the prior permission of the copyright owner ISBN 07139 12790 jj Printed in Great Britain by f Thomson Litho Ltd, East Kilbride, Scotland J For Barbara and Daniel AUTHOR'S NOTE This book has grown out of the 16,000 pages of documents that the CIA released to me under the Freedom of Information Act. Without these documents, the best investigative reporting in the world could not have produced a book, and the secrets of CIA mind-control work would have remained buried forever, as the men who knew them had always intended. From the documentary base, I was able to expand my knowledge through interviews and readings in the behavioral sciences. Neverthe- less, the final result is not the whole story of the CIA's attack on the mind. Only a few insiders could have written that, and they choose to remain silent. I have done the best I can to make the book as accurate as possible, but I have been hampered by the refusal of most of the principal characters to be interviewed and by the CIA's destruction in 1973 of many of the key docu- ments.

  • The Second Twenty Years, 1971-1991
    Northwestern Michigan College The Second IVvenfy Years 1971 -1991 Al Shumsky Assisted by Carole Marlatt NORTHWESTERN MICHIGAN COLLEGE The Second Twenty Years 1971-1991 A1 Shumsky Assisted by Carole Marlatt February 1994 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Thanks are due many people who helped with this project. First to the two people without whom it could not have been done: Tim Quinn and Carole Marlatt. Tim initiated the project and supported it with released time, and with no directions whatsoever beyond "Have a good time!" Carole not only prepared the manuscript, assembled the rosters in the appendix, chose the pictures, and both provided her own and edited my memories; she also is the one who recorded the Board minutes for these twenty years and then indexed them and preserved the hard copy so it was available to this amateur historian. (She, in fact, is the one to go to if you want to know what really went on during these years.) Thanks are also due these many others who graciously provided information or corroborated memories: Bob Buttleman, Doug Campbell, Becky Chartier, Jan Gasnik, Kathleen Guy, Chet Janik, Bill King, George Kuhn, Keith MacPhee, Nancy McArthur, Shelley Merrill, Dick Minor, Shirley Okerstrom, Barbara Raehl, Joe Rogers, PatSalathiel, Bill Shaw, Don Shikoski, Chuck Shreve, Robbie Teahen, Bob Warner, and Steve Westphal. Recognition is also due the hundreds of people—Board members, faculty and staff—whose names do not appear in this account, but who in fact constituted the College. Without them, there would be no history to write. I apologize to all whose contributions have not been specifically mentioned.
