Today Purchase College, SUNY thanked Senator Mayer who understands that providing access to all our community members is paramount to our mission as a public college. She was instrumental in ensuring that we were able to receive the funding to complete this project. Providing inclusive access to education includes reducing physical barriers to an education. In this case, those barriers involved curbs, sidewalks, crosswalks, parking spaces, and a bus stop. Thank you Senator Mayer for all you do to support educational access and to SUNY!

Thank you Yonkers Public Schools Superintendent Aníbal Soler, Jr for a great meeting today!!! Purchase College, SUNY looks forward to broadening our collaborations with Yonkers Public Schools to serve students in finding their pathways to a SUNY right near home!!!

Wonderful time today visiting Great Point Studios in Yonkers and learning more about what they offer our community. Thank you Purchase College, SUNY Alum Dani Wegman-Wolber ‘08 for connecting us and Christina O’Shea-Daly for hosting us! Stay tuned!

I hope everyone had a great first week on campus. It's been so nice to see the campus vibrant once again. I know it's not always easy to be in a new environment. Students, please reach out for support through Residential and Student Life or Counseling if you need help.

A new semester is the perfect opportunity to try new things, meet new people, and get involved in a club or an activity you love. Save the date of September 4 from 12-2 for the Club Fair. purchase.edu/calendar/event…

Happy first day of classes to our students and faculty. I hope you have a wonderful first week!

Many of our students come in as undeclared, or end up exploring other majors. Luckily, Purchase is the perfect place to open yourself up to everything, as seen in this Rolling Stone feature of the alumni bad, Lip Critic. rollingstone.com/music/music-fe…

Political violence is abhorrent & intolerable. Praying for former President Trump, all the victims of the tragic shooting in PA, & their families. At @SUNY, we’re committed to promoting civil discourse, fostering constructive civic engagement, & treasuring our shared humanity.

I was inspired this morning in my conversation with EOP students, Paul Nicholson and Mary Garcia who are phenomenal mentors. These students remind us why our future looks bright!!!

So how many times does a president of college get to take a picture with an alum where they are president who is the daughter of a former college roommate from another time and college!!! Small world!!!!!!

Having a great time at meet up with generations of Purchase College alumni at District Tap House in NYC only a few blocks from where I went to high school!!!
