As part of the continued assessment of our institutional organization, I have determined that our outstanding Precollegiate Programs currently reporting to Student Affairs are more effectively aligned with the other precollegiate programs in Academic Affairs.
I am pleased to announce that effective August 1, Precollegiate Programs will be reassigned to report to John Siskar, senior adviser for educational pipeline initiatives and director of the Center for Excellence in Urban and Rural Education (CEURE). The Precollegiate Programs unit, which comprises the Upward Bound, Liberty Partnerships, and STEP programs, will also be renamed the Precollegiate Academic Success Center under the leadership of Patrice Cathey, who will report to Dr. Siskar. It is expected that this alignment will allow the many outstanding precollegiate initiatives that Buffalo State College offers to build on each other to maximize their positive impact on the community.
