The Forming of the Urban League of Rochester From the 1940s to the early ’60s Rochester was one of the most comfortable cities in the U.S. Prosperous industries provided abundant jobs for highly skilled workers, and as a result, the median income of the city’s residents was among the highest in the nation.

    Tom LaDuca ‘72 - A Park Avenue Pioneer ochester’s Park Avenue simply isn’t what it used to be. That’s not to Rsuggest there’s anything wrong along this trendy thoroughfare—quite the contrary. The evolution of Park Avenue over the years makes it one of the city’s most desirable neighborhoods. Tom LaDuca ‘72 had a big impact on that transformation. As the owner of Hogan’s Hideaway, the College of Business alumnus helped launch a casu- ally elegant style of dining that makes the area a popular destination. His restaurant offers a wide-ranging menu, with items made from scratch on premises. But LaDuca says high quality food is only part of the experience. People enjoy coming to Hogan’s and Park Avenue to take in the eclectic mix of commercial and residential activity. “You can’t get the atmosphere—that certain ambiance—at the suburban chain restaurants,” explains LaDuca. “What you do get there is consistency. Walk into any chain, and you can sit in Tom LaDuca ‘72 and daughter Kelly Marie ‘03 pose in front of Hogan’s Hideaway. the same place, look at the same picture.

  • Monroe County Summary*
    www.ACTRochester.org Monroe County Summary* General Overview Monroe County is the region’s urban center and reflects the highs and lows, and stark disparities, of the Finger Lakes region. It has the most educated adult population and high-performing suburban districts, but also the highest child poverty rate and the lowest high school graduation rate. Monroe is the most diverse county and home to most of the region’s arts and tourist attractions. Monroe is one of nine counties in the Greater Rochester Region – Genesee, Livingston, Monroe, Ontario, Orleans, Seneca, Wayne, Wyoming and Yates Monroe is by far the largest county in the region, with almost two-thirds of the total regional population, giving it an outsized influence on regional statistics. Monroe is considered home to the urban and suburban portions of the census-defined Rochester Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA), while the counties of Livingston, Ontario, Orleans, Wayne, and Yates comprise the exurbs and rural areas of the metro. All municipalities in the MSA with over 25,000 population are within Monroe County. Monroe contains many of the most visited and well-known tourist attractions in the region, including The National Museum of Play, The George Eastman Museum, The Memorial Art Gallery, Seabreeze Amusement Park, Mount Hope Cemetery (home to the remains of Frederick Douglass and Susan B. Anthony, among others), Seneca Park Zoo, and Highland Park (site of the Lilac Festival).

  • A Wounded Life Can Be Made Whole Again. Dear Bivona Friends
    A wounded life can be made whole again. Dear Bivona Friends, In 2013, Bivona Child Advocacy Center took a turn toward the future like never before. Our $4.5 million Building Hope Campaign received a tremendous $500,000 lead gift from The Joseph and Irene Skalny Charitable Trust and by year’s end, we hit $3.5 million! A gift of this magnitude from the Skalny family inspires so many others to follow suit, and lends huge credibility to our agency, our mission and our need for relocating. By 2014, we will officially complete our Building Hope Campaign. One Mount Hope Avenue will put a permanent footprint in Monroe County as THE resource for children and families affected by the horrors of sexual and physical abuse. When we opened our doors in 2004, we thought we’d evaluate 250 children in our first year. We evaluated 525. This year, we evaluated more than 1,600. That’s 30 new children every week. In the past decade, we’ve not only tripled the number of children evaluated, we’ve tripled our partnerships, our staff, our operating budget, and went through three facility modifications to manage the growth and need. Bivona Child Advocacy Center at The Skalny Building will allow us to meet the growing needs of this community, and to deliver excellence in child abuse response, healing and prevention. A larger facility also means more space for our current partners and additional partnerships to expand programs and services. On day one at The Skalny Building, we will grow from 31 co-located partners to nearly 50; from 8,700 to 30,000 square feet; from one medical exam room to two; from three child-friendly interview rooms to four; from one play therapy room to two.

  • Unilateral Refusals to Sell Or License Intellectual Property and the Antitrust Duty to Deal
    UNILATERAL REFUSALS TO SELL OR LICENSE INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY AND THE ANTITRUST DUTY TO DEAL Marina Laot INTRODUCTION Much has changed in the last twenty years in the antitrust approach to intellectual property.1 Prior to the 1980s, the predominant view of the antitrust and intellectual property laws was that they conflict because the former protects competition while the latter permits monopoly.2 Courts and academics alike considered intellectual property rights as exceptions to the antitrust law that must be narrowly construed.3 The notion that the two bodies of law are diametrically opposed has_ since given way to the perspective that they are complementary, not conflicting, because they share the common goal of promoting innovation and maximizing con­ sumer welfare.4 However, despite efforts to downplay tensions between t Professor of Law, Seton Hall University School of Law.
