UPFRONTUPFRONTBreaking OutBy Elaine Handley,faculty mentor, English, Northeast CenterEmily Dickinson began a poem with the line “I dwell in Possibility.” I think it beautifullysums up the privilege, joy and challenge of teaching and learning – especially when it comesto the creative possibilities.UPFRONTPart of our work as academics is to help students enhance their critical thinking skills, skillsthat enable us to truly become lifelong learners. So we focus on developing our students’ higherorder thinking skills: the ability to apply, analyze, synthesize, and evaluate ideas, to borrow fromBenjamin Bloom’s taxonomy. But I think critical thinking is not enough – we must demand of ourselvesand instruct our students to be creative thinkers as well. The crucial and complicated issues we now faceas a global community demand creative, constructive thinking.Edward de Bono, a pre-eminent thinker about thinking, has written about the “intelligence trap”to which educated people are particularly susceptible. Those who feel overly confident about theirknowledge only defend what they know, and do not look for alternatives or listen to discover otherperspectives. Therefore, they don’t fully engage their faculties, and their minds become trapped andlimited. As subject matter experts we academics need to guard against this phenomenon in ourselves andwork not to engender it in students. One way to do this is to encourage and engage students in alternatethinking, or what de Bono calls “lateral thinking,” which goes beyond what we traditionally think of ascreative to mean “the ability to change perception and keep on changing perception.”Creativity of this kind engages both our intelligence and our imagination – and asks us to reject complacencyand to pay continuing attention to an evolving reality. I think it asks us to be fully alive. It is bornof curiosity and enthusiasm and often results in innovative and surprising ideas and connections. Studentsoften need only permission and a little encouragement to engage in divergent thinking – especially adultstudents, who have rich life experience from which to draw.What keeps many of us from being creative is convention and training. We are used to thinking incertain ways about certain things. We get comfortable with the mental equations we’ve made, the bonafidetraditional and accepted ways of thinking about a subject. The American Management Associationrecently conducted a survey of CEOs, of which 81 percent said innovation is what is required for businessesto be successful in the future.Highly creative students develop into highly motivated, independent thinkers and risk takers, whoembrace complexity and understand the value of working through a process. I think of them as trueintrapreneuers, people who are developing their reflective, imaginative, cognitive capabilities, people whoare emancipating themselves from what is expected, easy, predictable. These are people who often bringideas together from different fields and make meaning in unconventional ways. Just such people workin bionics, a field of engineering where products for human use are taken from structures in the naturalworld. For instance, the segmented facets of bee eyes that filter polarized light were the inspiration forinfrared photography.You will meet four such people in this issue of Empire State College Alumni and Student News:entrepreneur Gloria Austin, Broadway producer Jennifer Manocherian, composer Deddy Tzur andbusinesswoman Beth Gallmeyer.(continued on page 6)E M P I R E 1

An Innovative MarriageAlumna Beth Gallmeyer ’96 and husband Edmarry companies to processesNexttimeyougo to a grocerystore and arestanding in thecheckout line,take a momentto look at thewire racks the plastic bags are stored on. And then thankEmpire State College alumna Beth Gallmeyer’s company,founded by her husband Ed, for the convenience.“We do not sell widgets,” she explains. Instead,Gallmeyer describes what ESG Associates does as marryinga company to a process.So when an executive from Mobil Chemical wanted tomake plastic bags to replace the paper then widely in usein 1981, he turned to Ed Gallmeyer during a golf game,and said, “Tell me about your company.” He went on toexplain, “This is what we want to do.” Mobil Chemicalhoped to manufacture plastic bags and make them derigueur in the country’s retail stores, and he wondered if Edknew someone who could get the job done.“And of course you know the rest of the story, as theyare in every store – both retail and hardware, carousel andfree standing, yard holders and restaurant sorter racks,”says Gallmeyer. Working with a wire manufacturer, ESGAssociates “married the two companies together,” designinga prototype wire rack for the ease of storing the bags andslipping them off the racks to customers.As a retired vice president of manufacturing at Bausch& Lomb, and president of his own firm, ESG Associates,Ed was always looking for ways to bring two companiestogether in unusual ways. He brought the automation capabilityof Kodak to Bausch & Lomb, when the companiesworked together for the first time in 104 years of operation,to devise a way to automate the system for finding anddiscarding defective contact lenses. Prior to this, companyworkers had to “manually eyeball and pull out defectivecontact lenses,” said Gallmeyer.Gallmeyer was part of her husband’s company whenhe developed “a very sophisticated” filament (lighted wiredevice) for copiers, which activated toner, baking it onto thepaper to create the printed words as the paper moved fromstart to finish – at the push of the ON button. The companyalso “married” a German company that manufactured fractional(very small) horse power motors to Xerox – whichallowed smaller copiers to be made.Beth Gallmeyer has traveled through a variety of interestingcareers, after getting her first job at AT&T in 1957.She and Ed met at Drexel University, where she earned anassociate degree before going into telecommunications.She entered government service in New York after theirmarriage, then took time off to raise three children (one ofwhom, Scott, is now president of the couple’s company).She’s been a model and a cover girl (she’d model petitesizes on her lunch break for Casual Corner and Sibley’s)and worked in a top-secret job at an agency that made thetracking vans for the first space shots. In 1986, Ed broughtBeth on board with ESG Associates as vice president andtreasurer.Since her son Scott took over the firm, ESG Associateshas developed a special material, nanotherm, whichprotects electronic equipment’s printed circuit boards fromoverheating without the use of heat sink fans. And, althoughshe can’t say too much about it yet, the company is workingon a medical device that could be “a revolutionary itemused for post-breast cancer and other difficult surgerieswhich require a lengthy healing process.”The couple, who founded the company in Rochester,now lives in Florida. Since they’ve turned the day-to-dayreins of the company over to their son (Ed is chairman ofthe board), Beth Gallmeyer stays busy as a chapter regent –or president – of the Daughters of the American Revolution;plays golf at their country club (they live on the 15th hole),and is a senior consultant with Mary Kay Corp.Her second degree – earned from Empire State Collegein 1996 after she retired, in business management, with aconcentration in marketing and economics – “was just forfun, to see if my brain was still working.” m2 E M P I R E

Gloria Austin mastering the art of handling horse and carriage.SteeringClearof theNormGloria Austin ’75 takesthe reins of her girlhoodpassion for horsesGloria Austin ’75 has been riding since she was a girl growing up in upstateNew York, but it wasn’t until she retired from Paychex, a company foundedby her former husband, Thomas Golisano, that she bought herself a horseand took up riding again.However, after she was thrown from a horse, she began looking for a gentlerway to ride. “One of the reasons I got into carriage riding is age,” Austin said witha laugh.After seeing some people “sitting in what looked like a comfortable chair” drivenby horses, Austin became a carriage-driving enthusiast. So she founded an associationfor the sport – Austin Horse Park, home to her Continental Acres Equine Resortand the Austin Carriage Museum, located in Weirsdale, Florida. She also administersthe Austin Foundation, which operates the Carriage Museum and Education Center,whose mission is “providing educational, cultural, historic and scientific activitiesdevoted to preserving an understanding of the role of the horse and horse-drawnwheeled transportation.”Carriage driving provides pageantry, with its period clothing and stylish hats, aswell as an authentic experience that replicates a time when carriages were used fortransportation, warfare and the transport of goods, Austin said. Those devoted tothe sport belong to specialized clubs, and host competitions, which are generally heldup and down the east coast and in Canada. Austin belongs to two clubs devoted tocarriage driving and she holds championship titles, including North American Fourin-Handand Coaching Champion. One of those clubs, which she helped to found, issolely for women and now has 21 members in the U.S. and Great Britain. All of themown their own coaches and horses.Austin compares enthusiasts to those who collect, restore and drive antique cars.Because of the expense of the sport, the fraternity of carriage driving enthusiastscomprises, by nature, those who can afford the horses, the carriages, the trailers,(continued on page 4)E M P I R E 3

Steering Clear(continued from page 3)trucks, transportation and the travel,which includes jaunts to Europe. Theyare lawyers, lobbyists, descendants ofAmerica’s “families of fortune,” andsmaller independent business owners.Although women dominate the worldof horses – Austin says that 85 percentof horse owners are female – the sportof carriage driving, especially with fourhorses to a carriage, is dominated bymen. “For a woman, it’s particularlysatisfying,” shesays of the fourin-handdriving.“I take pride indoing somethingthat was historicallyreservedfor men only– and garneringrespect in thefellowship ofmen.”She describedthe feelingof guiding6,000 poundsof horse (theaverage horseweighs in at1,500 pounds)with one handwrapped aroundthe reins. “It’sunusual to seea four-in-handcarriage, but to see a woman [drivingone] is even more rare.”An outgrowth of her interest incarriage driving is her carriage museumand education center, where she displays135 of the 170 antique carriages thatshe owns, and visitors are assisted by 92volunteer docents. Most of the carriageson display have been restored to theirformer glory. Of the people who visit themuseum – senior citizens on day trips,4-H-ers and the occasional school group– few have particular knowledge ofhorses.Austin, whose son has developmentaldisabilities, began her career in thenonprofit field, coordinating services forthe mentally disabled for an agency inRochester, at a time when agencies wereworking to deinstitutionalize patients and4 E M P I R Eintegrate them into their communities.Austin views this transformation as anunqualified success. Her son now livesquasi-independently in a private home,assisted by a family who oversees hiscare. She also has a daughter who lives inFlorida, as well as six grandchildren.Austin earned her degree at EmpireState College in community psychologyin 1975, and went on to earn a master’sdegree at SUNY Brockport. She choseEmpire State College for her undergraduatework because she was in themidst of raising her family and she wasable to use her community and agencyAustin at her carriage museum where the finery of former days is on display.experience, along with her certificatesand credentialing, toward her degree.She liked that she was able to raise herfamily, work, and earn her degree at thesame time. “I’ve always prided myselfon doing things independently,” sheexplains. “One of the great things EmpireState College does is recognize one’sindependence. You really get validatedby the college and faculty.” Her mentor“was absolutely fabulous. He was verysupportive. You felt that he was yourally.”However, Austin did not remain inthe field of human services. She was soonoff to New York to help open downstateoffices of Paychex, a payroll-processingfirm founded by Golisano in 1971, andnow valued at more than $10 billion.She established an operating center inNew Jersey and Long Island, and openedsales offices in both places, as well asNew York City, Westchester County andConnecticut. Combined, these centersserved the entire New York metropolitanarea.Even though Austin no longer worksin human services, she still feels stronglyabout giving back. She founded HorsesHelp Humanity, LLC, a division of thefoundation that raises monies to supportthe use of the horse as a therapeutic toolto help people with emotional and developmentalhandicapping conditions.Today, Austin says she keeps busywith her love of travel and of learning.Besides running her foundation and horsepark, she travels for demonstrationsand competitions, keeping two horses inEurope, where she travels twice a year.She also takes off two times a year toAsia. It fascinates her to learn how horseand wheel transportation played a majorrole in the rise and fall of civilizations,she said.She credits some of this love oflearning to pursuing the independentstudies of her undergraduate experience.“It helps you find what your real passionis and encourages you to pursue yourpassion in a way that involves you in theworld. Empire State College helped me todo that.” m

Deddy Tzur ‘97 – immersed in music as aconductor, musician and composerOH It’s Magical…When composer Deddy Tzur ’97 was reached recently at his Venice,California studio, he was hard at work on a “cue” – music for a battlescene for a new video game, which is becoming the new hot area forcommercial composers. For the Israeli-bred son of a diplomat, games are justone more channel for his adventuresome, thoroughly modern, global stylethat includes jazz, rock and roll, pop, Big Band, symphony orchestra andchamber music.His international, sophisticated approach to music is coupled withpersonal graciousness and charm, apparent even over the phone lines –which can’t hurt as he navigates the competitive and sometimescut-throat environment of Hollywood.Tzur comes from a family that shares an appreciationand aptitude for music – his mother and two brothers bothhave musical talent, he said, but he is the only one to turnprofessional. He began taking classical piano lessons at agefive – “apparently I asked for the lessons; I insisted,” he says.He then moved on to guitar – playing in rock and roll andfunk bands, in addition to “a lot of jazz guitar.” At the age of16, while playing in a Big Band, and trying his hand at arrangingmusic, Tzur found his true calling: composing.Like most young Israeli adults, Tzur served in thearmy. But after boot camp and basic training, he wasallowed to devote most of his time to the Israeli AirOrchestra, which served as accompaniment for ahost of world-class international performers.Early in his career as a performer, he touredEurope, Asia, South America and NorthAmerica, where he was exposed to “a lot ofdifferent musical styles and experiences,”which helped him to define and refine hismusical style and his own composing,he said.In 1996, upon the recommendation ofone of his professors in Israel, he decidedto travel to New York, and enroll inEmpire State College. Because of hisyears of professional experience,he knew he was only a year ortwo away from a degree. At thesame time, he wanted to experienceAmerica, its educational system, andstudy both the arts and liberal arts.“I think it was very valuable. I wanted to bein New York and to broaden my education,even on the musical side, even though I wasfairly experienced by then,” he explained.(continued on page 6)E M P I R E 5

Defining Her Life(continued from page 7)67) she left college early, at 20, after marrying her husband, andimmediately started a family. She wanted to finish her degree– her parents didn’t look kindly on not having a college education– so she enrolled at Empire State College, in Manhattan,attracted to the flexibility. She went on to earn her master’sdegree to become a family therapist, where she specialized indivorce mediation.Manocherian worked nearly a decade in that field beforebeing drawn to theater. She had always enjoyed a good play ormusical, and began investing small amounts in shows before sheeventually got involved in producing. She took a job with a leadproducer where she’d “show up in her office every day. Part ofthe deal was to learn from her,” she said. She discovered thatshe had the knack for raising money – first among people sheknew and then other investors. “I started by doing outreach toeveryone I knew who could possibly afford to invest and raisedmoney that way – basically from people who were supportingme, not necessarily theater buffs. I have moved past them, asloyalty only goes so far – unless you got them into a cash cowof a show, at which time they became addicted. Over the years,I have come to know people who are theater buffs – not somuch individual investors, as fellow producers with whom Ipartner to raise money.”Making plays, after all, also is a business, and someonewho has a track record of making money for investors willfind others willing to go in on a show. However, the opposite isalso true: if a producer has had a string of shows that have lostmoney, it may be hard to scare up capital.For Manocherian, the decision to switch careers in midlifehas been a stunning success. “Caroline and Change,” apre-Civil rights era drama about the relationship between ablack housekeeper and the young child of the household, wasa critical and popular success, and garnered a nomination fora 2004 Tony Award for best musical, as well as a Drama DeskAward nomination for outstanding new musical. “ThoroughlyModern Millie” won both a 2002 Tony for best musical andDrama Desk Award for outstanding new musical. That sameyear, “The Crucible” was nominated for a Tony for best play.A number of other projects have been nominated for Tonys andDrama Desk awards over the years.Manocherian reads scripts and goes to plays in workshopto find properties that she responds to. Then she puts onher businesswoman’s hat to determine whether the propertyhas a chance of commercial success. If not, she has to pass.(Noncommerical scripts by good playwrights likely will beproduced by nonprofit theaters, sometimes with corporatesponsorship, she explains).Manocherian is the first to admit that although it’s hardwork, much of what she does depends on dumb luck. Forexample, one of the first plays she produced ran off-Broadwayin a cabaret. It had been open for two weeks before The NewYork Times came to review it. Although a show has reservesto keep it up and running until the reviews or good word ofmouth gets out, by two weeks, the reserve was depleted, andwhat was needed was a resuscitation by means of a glowingreview in a make-or-break outlet like the Times. So thecritic showed up and wrote a glowing review. Unfortunately,the review came out on a Saturday before Memorial Day(Saturdays are notoriously the least read paper of the week)and was placed in the social pages, not theater. So not verymany people ever saw the review, she said, and the show closedshortly after. “That was just bad luck,” Manocherian said.Citing a more recent example, Manocherian noted that“The Woman in White,” which drew raves in its London run,closed because of the misfortune of its leading lady’s diagnosisof breast cancer just as the play was opening. Besides being atthe whim of fate, “you’re at the mercy of a few critics.” Someshows are “critic proof” with strong word of mouth – she cited“Mama Mia,” “Jersey Boys” and “Wicked” – however, “veryfew shows are like that. If The New York Times pans yourshow it’s over.”So what can be done to buffet the winds of fate? “First youmust make a smart choice in terms of projects, attract a goodteam and a great director. Then it takes good reviews, a goodbusiness strategy, a good marketing strategy,” and, yes, “dumbluck.” mTell us your story!We are seeking contributions forfuture issues of the magazine.

All of this activity requiresan ever increasing demand for resources, and the recently announced capitalcampaign, Learners First: The Campaign for Empire State College is off to aterrific start thanks to all of you.David SmithWhile this report focuses on the campaign, it should not be forgotten thatthe campaign ultimately represents the means by which we are seeking toaccomplish one objective: providing a range of quality educational opportunitiesto adult students. Today “nontraditional education” and “onlinelearning” are common alternatives to the classroom-based approach toeducation. However, when Empire State College was founded 35 years agoby then SUNY Chancellor Ernest L. Boyer, these terms had rarely been heard.Fortunately, Chancellor Boyer recognized the need for a new kind of institutionand Empire State College has been providing flexible instructionalalternatives designed to meet the needs of working adults ever since. Today,with nearly 17,000 students enrolled, Empire State College is helping more adult learnersthan ever before.Empire State College’s ability to expand and evolve to meet the needs of an ever-changingsociety is largely a due to the generosity of our alumni, employees and friends. Not onlydo your contributions provide direct support to help with the development of the college’snew programs and initiatives, they also serve to demonstrate to the world that EmpireState College graduates recognize the importance of this distinctive institution.On behalf of the Empire State College Foundation Board, I want to express my sincerethanks to each and every person and group listed in the following pages for yoursupport of the college and its students. Your continued support is inspiring to us all.Sincerely,David L. SmithChairman, Empire State College FoundationBoard of Directors1

These events have been incredibly wellattended and the response has been overwhelminglypositive. Since the beginning of the campaign onJanuary 1, 2003, Empire State College has receivedin excess of $41 million in gifts and commitments,representing 80 percent of the $51.5 million campaigngoal. Through the end of March 2006, more than8,000 of Empire State College’s alumni, employeesand friends have already participated in the LearnersFirst campaign with a major gift commitment orthrough their support of the Empire State CollegeAnnual Fund.How can you participate? If you have never madea gift to the Empire State College Annual Fund, theLearners First campaign is the perfect occasion tobegin. To the thousands of Empire State College supporterswho already contribute each year, we thankyou and hope that you might consider increasingyour gift during the remaining years of the campaign.Contributing to the Annual Fund is the easiest andmost comprehensive way to support the college, andthanks to the recently announced $100,000 TurbenChallenge, your contribution may have double oreven triple the impact in 2006.The $100,000 Turben ChallengeIn order to underscore the importance of the AnnualFund to the college and as one of the five criticalareas of Learners First: The Campaign for EmpireState College, alumna and Empire State CollegeFoundation Board member Susan Turben ’72 and herhusband Jack have issued a $100,000 challenge to thecollege’s alumni.4 THOSE LISTED IN BOLD HAVE CONTRIBUTED FOR THE LAST FOUR CONSECUTIVE YEARS.

Learners First (continued)The $100,000 Turben Challenge will match contributionsfrom Empire State College graduates to theunrestricted Annual Fund received between January1, 2006 and December 31, 2006 that meet the conditionsof the challenge up to $100,000. Gifts will bematched as follows:Graduates who have never made a contribution tothe college will have their entire gift matched bythe Turben Challenge on a 1:1 basis.For example, John, a recent graduate, makes his firstcontribution of $120 to the Annual Fund in 2006.Since this is John’s first-ever gift to Empire StateCollege, it activates a match of $120 from the TurbenChallenge resulting in a total gift to the college of$240.All gifts from alumni whose total contributionsin 2006 exceed their total during the last year inwhich they contributed will have the entire valueof the increase matched by the Turben Challengeon a 2:1 basis.For example, Debbie has been a long-time supporterof the college’s Annual Fund whose contributions in2005 totaled $150. In order to take advantage of theTurben Challenge, Debbie decides to increase her giftin 2006 to $250. As a result of this $100 increase, theTurben Challenge will contribute an additional $200(two times the increased amount) resulting in a totalgift of $450 to Empire State College.Alumni who become first-time members of theKindred Society ($592 - $1,191) in 2006 will havethe entire amount of their contribution matched bythe Turben Challenge on a 2:1 basis regardless oftheir previous giving history.For example, Suzie, a 1994 graduate of Empire StateCollege, has been supporting the college every yearsince graduation at the $200 level. In 2006, Suziedecides to become a member of the college’s KindredSociety with a contribution of $600 to the AnnualFund. Her first-time membership in the KindredSociety makes her entire contribution eligible fora 2:1 match of $1,200 from the Turben Challengeresulting in a total gift to the college of $1,800.A special thank you to the Turben family for theirgenerous and creative support of Empire State Collegeand for working so hard to encourage others to dothe same. We hope that you will consider takingadvantage of this unique opportunity to double oreven triple the impact of your gift by participating inthe $100,000 Turben Challenge.President Moore delivering the Learners First message.THEDISTINGUISHEDALUMNI SOCIETY(continued)Deborah C.Peterson ’96, ’00Kathleen R.

DONORS REPORT: JANUARY 1 - DECEMBER 31, 2005Bob Carey, mentorMentor is a term that studentsmight have heardbefore enrolling at EmpireState College. But when they meetwith a faculty member, for the firsttime, they begin to discover what“mentor” truly means. It is likelythat you remember your mentor,the faculty member who helped youdecide exactly what it was that youwanted to learn and then managedto encourage, challenge, frustrateand even inspire you during youreducational journey.The Empire State CollegeApproach to AdultEducation – MentoringFor more than 30 years, Bob Careyhas been one of these mentors.Currently serving as dean of EmpireState College’s Center for GraduatePrograms, Carey mentored his firststudents at the New York City unitin the fall of 1973 and has been makinga difference in the lives of ourstudents and their families ever since.When you talk with Dean Careyabout mentoring, he will tell you thatbeing able to work directly with theindividual student truly makes thedifference. This personal interactionallows the mentor to help the studentclarify exactly what it is they wantto learn, uncover what they mayalready know about the topic, anddetermine what analytical skills andtools they will need to obtain thisknowledge. Once all of this is established,mentoring for Carey becomesa collaborative effort where he canguide, teach, advise and support theindividual student as they pursuetheir educational path.In the end, mentoring, along witha great deal of hard work on thepart of the student, leads to one ofCarey’s favorite aspects of being amentor – seeing his students and theirfamilies at their graduation. DeanCarey remarked that, “Graduationsat Empire State College are particularlyinspiring because you finallyhave the opportunity to meet all ofthe family members that your workhas impacted. It is very rewardingto see families so excited to meet thementor they have been hearing aboutfor so long, and to be able to share inthe celebration of their success.”Please know that your annual supportcombined with that from themany alumni and friends listed here,helps Empire State College continueto attract and retain the outstandingmentors that are working to enhancethe lives of our students every day.THE ANNIVERSARYSOCIETY(continued)Anthony M.

THE BOYER SOCIETYThe Boyer Society was established by the EmpireState College Foundation in 1994 to recognizeindividuals who have made provisions for thecollege through a bequest, a charitable gift annuity,a charitable trust, or by making the college the beneficiaryof a life insurance policy or retirement plan.The Boyer Society was named in honor of Ernest L.and Kathryn G. Boyer, two individuals who helpedshape the college during its formative years. ErnestL. Boyer was the chancellor of the State Universityof New York from 1970 to 1977. Dr. Boyer envisioneduniversity study available at times and places convenientto students of different ages and backgrounds.He saw the possibilities for awarding a degree forwhat a student knew, rather than for time servedin a classroom.As one of our earliest students, Kathryn G. Boyer typifiedour student body – an adult who had some education,a professional certification and years of experience.Empire State College allowed her to specificallyconstruct a degree program to meet her educationalneeds and obtain her degree. Following her graduation,Kathryn served many years on the board of directors ofthe Empire State College Foundation, and she remainsactively connected to the college through the BoyerFamily Lecture Series.If you believe you qualify for membership in the BoyerSociety or would like further information, pleasecontact Alta Schallehn, executive director of giftplanning at 518 587-2100 ext. 2413 or via e-mail atAlta.Schallehn@esc.edu.

College NewsCollege BuildingReceives Design AwardThe Eastern New York Chapterof the American Institute ofArchitects (AIA), has selectedthe renovation of Empire State College’s111 West Avenue building in SaratogaSprings for a 2005 Merit Award. Notingthat vacant box stores have becomea blight of many communities, theaward recognized the renovation forits “intriguing level of cleverness in theadaptive use and social responsibility”of turning a vacant 50,000-square-footformer Grand Union grocery store intoa working space for college offices andprograms, helping to revitalize a neighborhood.The citation playfully calledthis “thinking inside the box.”The building was designed by JMZArchitects and Planners, P.C., ofGlens Falls. The Empire State CollegeFoundation purchased the parcel for$2.15 million in March 2003, andcompleted a $3.5 million renovationon the property the following year. Itopened in June 2004.The offices and programs that wererelocated include the college’s printing,bookstore, mailroom and distributionoperations, (which were able to makeuse of the existing loading dock); thecollege’s Saratoga learning location;the Center for Distance Learning; andstudent financial services, businessservices, admissions, academic recordsand assessment. The Academy forLearning in Retirement, a programaimed at lifelong learning for seniorcitizens, also relocated.The AIA jury noted that KristenSchmitt, the project architect,“responded to the challenge by creatingan open cityscape within the building.10 E M P I R EDepartments were clustered aroundsky-lit intersections that punctuate thecirculation paths.” The skylights, whichbring natural light into the building, areaccented with fabric skirts. The buildingalso is green – featuring a geothermalheating and cooling system. The groupnoted that this further reduced the“modest construction cost of $70 persquare foot.”Adirondack ResidencyCelebrates 10th YearEvery year, about 35 EmpireState College students come fromacross the state, board a boat tocross Raquette Lake, and converge atCamp Huntington, a national historiclandmark owned by SUNY Cortlandin the Adirondack Park. They come toattend the Environmental/AdirondackStudies Residency, entering its 10th yearthis fall. According to Wayne Ouderkirkand Elaine Handley, two of the facultycoordinators of the residency, it is thelongest continuously running residencyin the college.This year, the theme is EcologicalLiving: Planning for Alternate Futures.Students will be able to choose a coursefrom eight offered at the residency:Environmental History of the 20thCentury; Ecopsychology; Out Amongthe Basic Shapes: Finding Form andStructure in the Wilds; EnvironmentalScience; Plants and Society; Root, Wordand Ritual; Nature in American History;and Microeconomics and EnvironmentalPolicy. During the residency, studentsmeet in study groups – twice in plenarysessions on the residency theme, runby Robin Voetterl, a mentor with theM.A.T. program; go on field walks;a historical tour of the camp; attendlectures; and enjoy evening entertainmentwith folklorist Bill Smith whowill present Songs and Tales of theAdirondacks. Those who choose toalso can attend optional pre-residencysessions October 9: Environmental FieldObservation and Writing About Nature.The Environmental/AdirondackResidency draws both students who arefocusing on environmental studies astheir academic concentration, and otherswho are just interested in environmentalissues, and want to take a course thatfocuses on them, as well as be aroundpeople who share their concerns.Interested students can learn more atwww.esc.edu/Adirondackres.It all began as an offshoot of anannual faculty retreat held at the samecamp. When it was decided not tocontinue the retreat, a few who enjoyedthe getaway and the rustic surroundingsbegan to think of ways they couldcontinue the experience, but open itup to their students. In 1996, severalmentors, including Ouderkirk, Handley,Dora Ingofsdottir and Chris Evans(now retired), who went on to coordinatethe yearly residency, got togetherat the camp to begin to hammer out aplan. The following October, the first33 students enrolled. Enrollment hasbeen steady ever since, seeing a dip onlywhen the college instituted the SUNYgeneral education requirements. Lastyear, for the first time, all of the coursesoffered were designed to fill thesegen. ed. requirements, and enrollmentrebounded.Falling in October, the weather atthe residencies has been variable. Oneresidency was particularly memorablebecause of a soft early snowfall, saidOuderkirk. “It was really beautiful – thiswas the first or second week in October.The next day was one of those crystalclear days and the colors were brilliant.”“We’ve had snow and days we’vebeen out in shorts,” added Handley.Another time, in an effort to raisemoney to give as a donation to thecamp, participants dared Ouderkirk tojump in the frosty waters of the lake oneevening. He did, and a record donationwas gathered.Besides the wide array of academicofferings, Handley explained that theappeal is “that it really is a retreat fromour every day life. There is a sense ofcommunity – food is served family style,we take turns preparing for meals andcleaning up, and we have dormitoryliving.” She added, “It’s rustic, but it’snot camping.” m
