Message from the

Students and Scholarships

“People often ask me what links today’s Baruch students

with those who graduated 30, 40, 50 years ago. The link is

struggle, the link is intellect, the link is accomplishment and

a certain fire in the belly.”

– Irwin Engelman ’55, LLD (Hon.) ’00

Faculty Research and Teaching

“People on the cutting edge of the creation and dissemination

of knowledge live with only one certainty: the uncertainty of

knowledge. Bringing that awareness into the classroom helps

us encourage the critical thinking processes that we hope

will lead our students to become lifelong learners.”

– Dennis Slavin

Associate Provost and Associate Professor of Music

College-wide Programs

“Leaders have knowledge of all subjects–language, art,

literature, math, history, sciences.. . We rely on universities

to be the protectors of democracy.”

– Vartan Gregorian

President of Carnegie Corporation of New York

Speaking at the Second Annual Executives On Campus Reception at Baruch College

12

“More than once we’ve had

executives at Loral who were

extremely bright but unable to

succeed because they couldn’t

communicate. Not being able to

communicate is a failure.”

– Bernard L. Schwartz (’48)

Generous endowments from alumni who believe strongly in the power of the arts

and communications to enrich people’s lives ensure the rich, interdisciplinary

experience which Baruch students have access to.

The Zicklin School of Business

16

“I entered the business world with all the skills necessary

to excel. Within ten years of graduation, I was in senior

management with a major bank. Six years after that, I was

president. I couldn’t have done it without Baruch.”

– Dov C. Schlein ’70, MBA ’75

President, The Baruch College Fund, 2003-2004

“The Weissman Center exists thanks to the largesse of the donor community.

George Weissman understood that there was never sufficient student support

at Baruch. This center is a little island of incremental resources in a sea of no

resources. The impact it has on people’s lives is huge.”– Terrence F. Martell

Director of the Weissman Center for International Businessand Emanuel Saxe Distinguished Professor of Finance

The Weissman School of Arts and Sciences

“Arts and sciences are the bloodstream that course through

the entire body of knowledge and through our civilization.”

– George Weissman ’39, LLD (Hon.) ’82

20

“The ability to write is perhaps the single

most valuable gift to the human race.…

People in business who write well have a

tremendous advantage over those who

don’t.”– Sidney Harman (’39)

“Each of the three strands—art, business,

and community—wind around each

other to make a single strand, and that

strand weaves into a tapestry that defines

us, gives our lives meaning and enriches

us beyond measure.”

– George Weissman ’39, LLD (Hon.) ’82

The School of Public Affairs

24

As one of America’s only public institutions of higher

education devoted to the administrative sciences, Baruch

is a fitting home for New York City’s only public school of

public affairs.

“Politics exists to do

good government—

government does

not exist to do good

politics.”

– Peter Vallone Sr.

Looking Ahead

“These gifts mark a truly

historic moment for Baruch

and CUNY, and they set an

exciting tone for the years

ahead. With innovative and

progressive new facilities;

a world-class faculty; a

dramatic rise in our national

rankings; the smartest,

most diverse, and motivated

student body we’ve ever

seen; and the remarkable

dedication of our donors,

Baruch is transforming the

urban college experience

and setting a new standard

of excellence in public

education. I believe Baruch

is poised for a remarkable

future.”

– Dr. Kathleen Waldron President, Baruch College

“The real worth of any school is determined primarily by the caliber of its faculty

and student body. Few colleges in the country have more exacting standards.

Humble as this school may seem, it comes far closer to giving reality to the

American Dream than better-known private colleges and universities.”
