Finalizing the draft resolution today and aiming to fuel a last push to influence the “three people in the room” before the SFY27 Enacted Budget is decided. We need to act as if an agreement could come any day now. #PublicGoodU

So fortunate to be invited to this celebration of Dr. Omar Yaghi and his journey from Hudson Valley Community College to U Albany all the way to the 2025 Nobel Prize in Chemistry! The epitome of #PublicGoodU
As expected, the open letter crossed major thresholds (3K views, 1.4K downloads, 500 signatories) on April Fool’s Day. Our Rapid Response Team is hard at work developing templates of varying length & type for the draft resolution. I’m reaching out to each of our partners today. Onward. #PublicGoodU
It’s no joke: New York’s state budget process is going into overtime! OT is the perfect time to boost this open letter from SUNY and CUNY governance leaders. All our efforts this entire budget season are on the line. We need push even harder for #PublicGoodU. Here’s where we stand today. 1/
State budget advocacy is not all we do. But it’s our major focus until we have an SFY27 Enacted Budget, however long or short that takes. Keep contacting your state legislators and the Governor about our open letter (now over 2910 views and 485 signatories). #PublicGoodU

Our first really slow day (up to 2780+ views and 460+ signatories), but I get it, I really do, everyone was streaming my alma mater, Hamilton College, winning the D3 men’s hockey national championship 16+ minutes into OT & just lost track of time the rest of the day! Time to lock in for #PublicGoodU
Thank you @cadhe.bsky.social #PublicGoodU
Asking anyone with access to @mayor.nyc.gov to see if he would talk to his state legislators and ask them to fight for these priorities for CUNY and SUNY to get into the SFY27 Enacted Budget! Now is the time to realize the promise of #PublicGoodU

The post-spring break momentum for our open letter continues, with over 1850 views (less than 20 from the no. 1 spot in our repository, on pace to surpass our open letter to Governor Hochul on the Executive Budget sometime today) and 305 signatories. This is just the beginning. #PublicGoodU
#PublicGoodU also includes public medical schools. We are all in this fight together.

Thankful for the chance to talk with friends of @sunyofficial.bsky.social tonight about UFS’s support of a #PublicGoodU approach to funding, staffing, and governing SUNY. And to expect a sequel to
hdl.handle.net/1951/88628 (Dec. 2025 open letter)
hdl.handle.net/1951/88649 (Jan. 2026 resolution)
Yes & how about we also call on every governor to fund, price, staff, & govern our public community colleges, ag & techs, specialized & statutory colleges, public regional colleges, & university centers like the public goods they are? Accessible, affordable, excellent #PublicGoodU is one answer!
The #PublicGoodU Barnstorming Tour facilitates collaboration across campus roles and types, bringing together UFS and FCCC campus governance leaders, elected campus representatives on the system-wide governance bodies, multi-function administrative teams, and SUNY System leaders.
It’s official!! After months of planning, the Realizing the Promise of Public Good U barnstorming tour raises its 1st regional tent at Onondaga Community College next Friday! It builds on February’s #PublicGoodU conference, and focuses on shared governance and student success.

Today’s the day! Our Fall Planning Meeting—my first event to fully plan for UFS—kicks off in an hour and a half! And our first day should end just in time for the Bills-Dolphins kickoff….

An interesting listen, for any supporters of #public #HigerEd as a #PublicGood ( #PublicGoodU ). I've added the book to my shopping cart.

No time like the present for trying to assemble a team to actually develop the Public Good Higher Education Index. If you’re the kind of person who checks their email on a Friday night and you didn’t hear from me, let me know and I’ll share the invitation! #PublicGoodU #MADC
