Nick Buglione: High school education in New York will suffer without Regents exams

The Board of Regents' vote last month to eliminate Regents exams as a graduation requirement will further erode any standard of measuring student achievement, and eliminate the last remains of accountability in schools.

Governor Hochul’s New Cornell Policy

FROM GOVERNOR KATHY HOCHUL: “Every student deserves to feel safe on their campus. And when someone reports sexual assault, they deserve to be heard, treated with compassion, and know their allegations will be taken seriously and thoroughly investigated by law enforcement trained to support survivors. “That is why, at my direction, the New York State Police signed an agreement with Cornell University in which all sexual offense complaints that would normally fall under the jurisdiction of Cornell University Police will be immediately referred to State Police for criminal investigation unless otherwise requested by the individual. “What Jane Doe described is horrifying. Survivors should be able to trust the institutions responsible for protecting them. We cannot afford to let them down. I will continue to do everything in my power to make sure survivors are treated with the dignity and respect they deserve, and that justice and accountability are pursued.”

The History of the State University of New York System SUNY

For much of its history, New York State had some of the country’s most prominent institutions of higher learning without having a unified state university system. Columbia University, Cornell University, Syracuse University, and other private colleges helped establish New York as a major center of scholarship, while state-supported schools trained teachers, agricultural specialists, and people entering technical professions. But the colleges serving the public were scattered among separate institutions, rather than organized as one comprehensive public university.

BOCES unveils new nursing school at former Johnson City High School

Tucked behind an old high school in Johnson City, the next generation of licensed practical nurses are building their careers. Each day, students study nursing at a new center at 435 Main St., in what was once the detached gymnasium of the former Johnson City High School.

When enrolling, students can choose between the full-time 10-month program or the part-time program, which extends studies over 20 months. For full-time attendees, the program's tuition is around $17,500, while part-time students can expect to pay around $8,700 a year. New BOCES Nursing Center offers top-tier education in historic building For Wendy Antalek, supervisor of Health Careers and School Health Services, the new center represents BOCES nursing program's growth over the past years.

Governor Hochul Announces Free Community College Access for New Yorkers

Local news about the companies, people and issues that impact business in Westchester County and beyond. Earlier this month, Governor Kathy Hochul announced the expansion of her Reconnect program to help New Yorkers develop new skills in various high-demand industries. The Reconnect initiative was launched in 2025 and has provided free community college, books, and supplies to over 15,000 adults if the applicant did not have a college degree (except for those enrolled in nursing programs). This new expansion allows New Yorkers to enroll in a free SUNY or CUNY associate degree program even if they have a degree in a different field. This initiative aims to address the impacts of artificial intelligence on the workforce.
