For those of us working in higher education — or even those with loved ones going to college — one could make an argument that the New Year does not begin Jan. 1 but instead toward the end of summer. Maybe it’s the day freshmen arrive on campus. Or the first day of classes. Or some timeless tradition with people in robes that ceremoniously launches the fall semester.
Whatever it may be, colleges should all wish themselves a Happy New Year at this, one of the most exciting times on the calendar. And as eager freshman appear on campuses looking to learn and grow and make friends, we should be doing the same. That’s why SUNYCUAD exists: to further professional development, to keep you in touch with trends, to help you make great contacts (and, yes, friends).
So with this new year upon us, make some resolutions. What will you do to better yourself? To make your institution a better place? To connect with others? Think about it, and know that SUNYCUAD is here to help.
