How much longer will Kent be Chancellor?

IthacaMatt said:
Because the University only pays about $3,500 per class per semester to Adjunct Staff. I've been offered a couple positions and asked for more, and when they said "that's the budget", I declined. The University feels like it is a privilege for local attorneys to teach there, for the "prestige".

That's why their professors aren't published, for the most part. They're working lawyers who fit in teaching for a bit of side change and the visibility of saying they are an SU Law Professor. They're not scholars. The University is generally not investing in a competitive salary. They are looking to do it on the cheap.

This is definitely true across the University, in a general sense. Obviously not all positions, but certainly a good number.
 
For those that question if Kent cares about athletics... from the horses mouth...

"I am committed to ensuring Syracuse Universitycontinues to compete at the highest levels across all ourathletics programs. This year that meant making investmentsin Head Coach Fran Brown’s vision for Orange football andbreaking ground on a new football operations center. CoachBrown and his team delivered with an outstanding 9-3 regularseason record in Fall 2024, a Top 25 national ranking, anda victory in the Holiday Bowl in San Diego. Our commitmentto sport spans the academic and student experience as well.The reimagined David B. Falk College of Sport will becomethe nation’s first college dedicated to sport-related academicdisciplines. And, our elevated club sports experience willprovide stronger support to 1,400 student participants."

agreed, as an adjunct at GW, I would love to have gotten $3,500. SU's DC adjuncts actually make more than other local universities, but a substantial amount.

Good find!

The following sets it up for the long haul, an increase in STEM:

To position itself as a global leader in research and education in the semiconductor manufacturing industry, the University launched a new research center and is expanding the College of Engineering and Computer Science by 50% over the next four years. New partnerships build on our strengths, including a veteran workforce pipeline for Micron coordinated by the D’Aniello Institute for Veteran and Military Families.

STEM investment will help in the long run for future growth and reinvestment.

QFT. And it's not unrelated to athletics. My STEM degree from Syracuse is a big part of why I can and do throw money at Dome events.

Not just talking about donations either. I just bought a new truck; in part for bigger tailgates this fall :D.

And, unequivocally restarting the College of Nursing with graduate-level education incorporated. Further strong consideration in relation to private medical school education. Both can certainly increase research efforts, funding, and visibility for our University. Strongly considering a veteran-centric affiliation for both colleges. Politics aside, these initiatives should be considered for a private University that wants to maintain credibility in the research community. Local, city and certainly state drivers should be involved.

No, Cornell is a private university. But it is one of only three American universities that received public land grants.

It's both really

From the Cornell Website:


Cornell is unique: Although it's an Ivy League university, chartered as a private institution, it includes undergraduate colleges and schools that receive some funding from New York State. They are sometimes called state contract colleges. The state subsidy results in lower tuition for students who have New York State residency and are enrolled in these colleges or schools. The state-assisted colleges and schools are:

  • Cornell University College of Agriculture and Life Sciences
  • Cornell University College of Human Ecology
  • Cornell University School of Industrial and Labor Relations
  • Cornell SC Johnson College of Business: Charles H. Dyson School of Applied Economics and Management
  • Cornell Jeb E. Brooks School of Public Policy
The other Cornell undergraduate colleges and schools, sometimes called the endowed colleges, rely on private support. They are:

  • Cornell University College of Architecture, Art, and Planning
  • Cornell University College of Arts and Sciences
  • Cornell University College of Engineering
  • Cornell SC Johnson College of Business: Peter and Stephanie Nolan School of Hotel Administration
Despite the differences in funding for the undergraduate colleges and schools, all Cornell students enjoy the same quality of academic and campus life and are free to choose elective courses in the other colleges and schools. Students applying to Cornell should select the program that most interests them or that best meets their academic needs, whether it's privately-endowed or state-assisted.

Pretty much every farmer I've ever known in NYS graduated from Cornell. NYS has gotta be the only state with a large number of Ivy-league graduate farmers. And the public/private status creates a culture somewhat analogous to Syracuse with SU/ESF (although I think SU and ESF have increasingly decoupled over the last thirty years, so its not a one-to-one comparison).
 
one reason its so complicated to manage is that the mix of money for support comes from all over.

I'm one of those who has been saying it for the past 5+ years. We need to see this happen.

I think Clemson may be the only other I am aware of with a similar distinction.

I used to do a lot of work for both College of Engineering as well as Ag and Life Sciences. There is a slight difference. As an architect, I have a lot of Cornell Architecture colleagues. They even claim a certain "unaware"-ness of the Ag campus. The Cornell College of veterinary medicine is there also.

I believe this is why Cornell gets made fun of as the "non-Ivy" amongst the Ivy League.

There are like 11 different schools. Some are public, some are private. That's why the first question when someone meets another alum is "which school are you from?" There is a clear pecking order, as one might expect.

Yea this is low. I think that adjuncts get 4-5k at my school. I've been hearing that SU's pay for profs hasn't been all that great.
 
Anyone have information what's going on with ECS and some of the other units?

Honestly I thought the writer came off as a dick, however sounds like someone in the financial aid office and admissions really screwed up this year. Also $92k for SU is laughable

Outside of the ivies, I think that all of the private schools in NY state are in trouble.

Yes it’s a northeast thing. It’s called the enrollment cliff. It’s why you see so many colleges folding. Cazenovia college, st Rose in Albany, Keuka to name a few. I think eventually, a long time from now, it will be rolled into the SUNY system along with ESF and Upstate. It’s currently track is not good

Not Keuka. I think you mean Wells. But others, like Sage and Siena have seem to have benefited due to St. Rose's closure.

Some small schools in the south are closing too.
