Some fear SUNY's Canton and Potsdam campuses could be merged.
SUNY says new initiative will consolidate administration, maintain student programs
Canton, NY, Aug 05, 2011 — Media reports and rumors have been rampant this week about the future of SUNY Canton and SUNY Potsdam...particularly after the official announcement Tuesday that long time Canton college president Joseph Kennedy would be stepping down from that position. SUNY is now working to dispel rumors and clarify the situation.
There’s been concern in both communities that two very different schools would be merged.
Today, SUNY announced plans to create “Campus Alliance Networks”—the stated goal of which is to “redirect existing funding to enhance learning opportunities and access for students.”
Julie Grant spoke with SUNY Central Provost David Lavallee. She asked him how the Network will affect the Canton and Potsdam campuses and the rest of the system.
