OtNeill,Governor Members of the Connecticut General Assembly FROM: John W. Shumaker President and I am pleased to transmit to you the final report of the Committee established by Special Act 87-81 in 1987 to study the feasibility of establishing a Continuing Education Center in downtown New Britain for Central Connecticut State University. The Committee's recommendation reflects broad consultation with members of the community, including business, industry and government; faculty and staff of Central Connecticut State University, and other specific constituencies who could contribute to or be affected by, the presence of such a center in the downtown area. If there is a common thread running through the Committee's recommendations it is outreach. As Central Connecticut State University approaches ever more closely the status of a truly comprehensive University, it plans vigorously and @ creatively to explore a number of ways for reaching out to the citizens of Connecticut. The University will, of course, retain its commitment to the best tradition of the liberal arts and professional education; but it will also strive to help the community and its institutions derive fuller benefit from the resources of the University's strong faculty and staff. Clearly, the list of recommendations and suggestions presented in the report is ambitious. But the Committee believes that the creation of a Central Connecticut State University Educational Center in Downtown New Britain will significantly enhance the University's efforts to fulfill its ongoing and expanding educational and public service objectives. The Committee also recognizes the need for additional planning. Accordingly, we recommend that the creation of a downtown facility be referred for further development to the President of Central Connecticut State University, the Board of Trustees of the Connecticut State University system, and the Board of Governors. We are happy and honored to have played any role in exploring the many ways in which this fine campus can grow and develop to the benefit of the entire state of Connecticut.

Pattenaude, Vice President for Academic Affairs Dr. Thomas Flaherty, Director of Planning The Feasibilitv of a Downtown New Britain Facility for ~enGalConnecticut State Uriiversity In June of 1987, the Connecticut General Assembly enacted Special Act 87-81, which established an eleven member committee to study the feasibility of developing and con- structing an academic and continuing education center facility in downtown New Britain to be occupied by Central Connecticut State University. The study was to assess the fea- sibility of establishing such a facility in light of (1) the potential enhancement of Central Connecticut State University's educational programs and public service partnerships; (2) the benefits to the economic health of New Britain of an expansion of the University into the downtown area; and (3) the facility needs of Central Connecticut State University and the impact on the University and its students of the creation of a downtown campus extension. The membership of the committee included the following appointments: one member appointed by the governor; one member appointed by the president pro tempore of the senate; one member appointed by the speaker of the House; two members appointed by the Board of Trustees of the Connecticut State University; two members appointed by the President of Central Connecticut State University; two members appointed by the Mayor of the city of New Britain; The Commissioner of Higher Education and the Mayor of New Britain, or their designees. The Special Act required that state and local government officials, local employers, and labor and civic groups be consulted as part of the study. The legislation also required the committee to present its report to the Governor and General Assembly not later than June 1, 1988. In April, 1988, however, the Committee requested and was granted an @ extension of the fling date until December 1.5, 1988. Summary of Committee Activities The Committee met for the first time in September 1987 at the call of Dallas Bed, President of Connecticut State University. President Bed and Central Connecticut State University President John Shumaker reviewed the charge to the Committee and John Shumaker was selected as Chairman. The Committee has met monthly since then (with the exception of July, 1988) and has engaged in a variety of fact finding discussions with diverse groups in the New Britain community. These have included presentations from the Municipal Action Council of New Britain, the Social Service agencies of New Britain, the New Britain Museum, the New Britain Opera, the New Britain Greater Arts Council, the New Britain Library, the Mayor's office, New Britain General Hospital, and representatives of the Labor Community. The Committee reviewed discussion papers from the staff of Central Connecticut State University. These documents, based upon exploratory discussions with faculty, staff and the community, have defined possible ways for the University and organizations in the New Britain region to collaborate in new programs or initiatives. The proposals have included the following: a center for the Health Professions in cooperation with New Britain General Hospital and other area health care facilities; a center for Regional Business Development' developed by CCSU in cooperation with the New Britain Chamber of Commerce and the Municipal Action Council; a center for Public Policy Studies; a center for School Development; a center for Arts in Education; a center for Manufacturing Sciences; a center for Hospitality Management to be developed in collaboration with several regional community colleges; and a center for Labor Studies. Discussion among involved faculty and community groups must be continued to explore further and develop the ideas contained in these interesting proposals. In December, 1987, the Committee retained the consulting firm, M&H Group, Inc. of Boulder, Colorado and Washington, D.C., headed by Dr. Jana Matthews. The consultants assisted the committee in its deliberation by: identifying and discussing relevant issues with aJl participants; assessing campus needs and resources; assessing community needs and resources; identifying and evaluating program alternatives; and assisting in the preparation of final report. M&H presented a preliminary report in August, 1988 and delivered the final report in September, 1988. The committee accepted the M&H Final Report at its meeting on September 26, 1988. This report was a critical component of the committee's analyses and deliberations. Recommendations The Committee's recommendations made in this report are based upon careful consid- eration of the complementary needs of the University and community. The Committee and the University administration deem them to be both viable and reasonable, and to address existing needs within the community. The Committee's primary conclusion

  • The Brooklyn College Foundation Annual Report, 2004–2005
    The Brooklyn College Foundation Annual Report, 2004–2005 On the cover: Architectural plan for realization of the campus design envisioned by Brooklyn College’s founding architect, Randolph Evans, in 1935. The plan proposes new entrances to Roosevelt and James Halls, a new West Quad to mirror the existing East Quad, and a new building to anchor the entire campus west of Bedford Avenue. The West Quad Project is one of several ambitious plans the College has launched to build a modern, student-centered campus conducive to learning and scholarship. Dear Friends of Brooklyn College At Brooklyn College in the last year, we have been busy building— not only the physical campus, but also the educational environment that best encourages vigorous learning and scholarship. Our priorities result largely from initiatives we launched during the first five years of my presidency—and particularly within the last twelve months. These include expanding the campus, renewing the natural sciences, and broadening our fiscal base. The physical transformation of the campus continues apace. We have doubled the size of the Morton and Angela Topfer Library Café, and it is open again 24/7. Over the summer, we renovated and modernized eleven lecture halls in Ingersoll Hall. We move ahead with the West Quad Project, laying out a new quadrangle and pouring the foundation for a new building. We have begun a major rebuilding of our science facilities and our science curriculum. The project will proceed in two stages. First, Roosevelt Hall will be transformed into a science building; then we will renovate Ingersoll Hall. The science faculty meanwhile has been discussing and defining the shape science teaching and research should take at the College.

    THE BROOKLYN COLLEGE FOUNDATION Annual Report 2010 - 2011 DEAR ALUMNI AND FRIENDS, The fiscal year ending June 30, 2011, was one of solid growth for the Brooklyn College Foundation. The number of contributions from alumni and friends continued to rise and the total value of gifts and pledges nearly doubled over the previous year. I am pleased to report that we are making considerable progress toward the $200 million goal of our Foundation for Success Campaign. Although the amount raised is impressive, the impact of these donations is what counts. Through the generosity of friends, alumni and private foundations, we were able to grant over 1,200 scholarships and awards. We have provided funding for students to take advantage of unique learning opportunities from New Orleans to Peru, from Paris to South Africa and, of course, right here in Brooklyn. And we have supported new facilities and equipment necessary to provide students with a 21st century education of the highest quality. As chair of the foundation, I am grateful to my fellow trustees for their engagement and leadership. The continuing impact of the foundation is due in large part to their strategic counsel and dedication. I am also grateful for the privilege to work alongside President Karen L. Gould. Under her leadership, Brooklyn College has charted an ambitious and exciting vision for the future with student success at its core. On behalf of the trustees and staff of the Brooklyn College Foundation, I want to thank everyone who has contributed to our mission to provide access to excellence for the students of this great institution.

  • Introduction
    INTRODUCTION Throughol,lt history architecture has served the noble purpose of bringing artists together for mutual achievement. Most often the record of this collaboration has pointed up how well the beauty of one art form may be enhanced by another. Much architecture of this century has ignored the added life which the artist can invest in a structure. It has been a period during which the architect, pressed by the client to solve a continuous series of economic problems dealing with the construction and use of building space, appeared to neglect the other arts. In themselves, the practical preoccupations of the architect have been a strong force in keeping the arts separate. Yet, beyond that force there was a professional ideal of the architect that for a generation made the separation near complete. Unbound by the structural limitations of the past .•• with new materials and methods of building to express form, texture and volume .•. the architect was challenged to make his structure a thing of beauty sufficient unto itself. Now there is evidence that this attitude is changing. We are being reminded of the value of aesthetic collaboration, and, in turn, we are becoming aware of a new association between the architect and the artist. But the relationship appears to be different .from that which existed in the past. It is one conceived in a manner that satisfies both the sensitive and the rational man. It is less an attempt to integrate, than to give meaning to space by relating form and use to human proportions and by rejoining the arts under a common roof.
