SUNY releases new strategic plan for "The Entrepreneurial Century"

State University of New York Chancellor Nancy L. Zimpher this week is unveiling SUNY's new strategic plan for its 64 campuses. The Power of SUNY is intended to serve as a guide for development over the next decade.
The plan is available at www.suny.edu/powerofsuny.

"It was an honor to be a part of the strategic planning process," said Raymond Cross, president of Morrisville State College. "I am excited about this plan and the commitment embedded in every paragraph. This is not your traditional academic strategic plan - it is bold, exciting, and real, and certainly demands attention. It calls for action, requires commitment, and will aggressively move SUNY and all of New York forward. Every campus and community should be eager to help make this vision a reality."

The Power of SUNY explores the many issues affecting New York State and the State University community, while identifying six "big ideas":

• SUNY and the Entrepreneurial Century
• SUNY and the Seamless Educational Pipeline
• SUNY and a Healthier New York
• SUNY and an Energy-Smart New York
• SUNY and the Vibrant Community
• SUNY and the World

The State University of New York is the largest comprehensive university system in the United States, educating nearly 465,000 students in 7,669 degree and certificate programs on 64 campuses. To learn more about how SUNY creates opportunity, visit www.suny.edu
