Lisa Vollendorf

SUNY Empire was well represented last week at SOMOS 2024: Navigating Change Together in Puerto Rico. I enjoyed talking about university partnerships across the Caribe and updating elected leaders on our continued growth as New York’s only online public university.

New episode on The Rant Podcast, I talk with @lisavol, President of @SUNYEmpire. We talk about how her university designs for working learners & how it leads online teaching & learning innovation for @SUNY. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/des…

"I now have a deeper appreciation for a simple fact: a commitment to inclusion requires a commitment to building universal design into all aspects of our teaching, learning, and operations." @lisavol @SUNYEmpire Read the full article here: presidentsforum.org/2024/10/14/bui… #Autism

It's crucial to honor the sacrifice and legacy of our veterans, particularly those whose service was not always recognized as equal across our Nation's history based on the color of their skin. Thankful to visit the African American Veterans Monument & Buffalo Hispanic-American Veterans Memorial alongside Trustee Lewin, Assembly Majority Leader @CPeoplesStokes & Assemblymember @JonRivera149, & Robin Hodges, a Navy Veteran & @SUNYEmpire alum who serves as the Chief Operations & Impact Officer for the AAVM.

Thank you for speaking with the @SUNYEmpire community!
