A new Student Services Center will open at Nassau Community College this summer that combines many student service

areas under one roof, in a newly built location on the Lower Level of the Tower Building. It will be a one-stop solution for many student service needs.

The Center has been equipped with a variety of “smart” features to enhance the student experience, including interactive check-in kiosk stations; text and email capability to let a student know when it’s his or her turn to see a representative to cut down on waiting time; and a mobile “kiosk agent” who will use a tablet to further streamline the student service process. After a new student answers a few questions, or a current student scans his or her ID, he or she will be prompted to answer further questions that will direct their information to the appropriate office or service. In addition, digital displays located in various spots around the Student Services Center will display a map of the Center as well as other information about the College.

NASSAU COMMUNITY COLLEGE

STATE UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK

Dr. W. Hubert Keen has been named the new president of Nassau Community

College, a unit of the State University of New York (SUNY). Dr. Keen, who will assume his duties in August, will be the College’s sixth permanent president in its 56-year history. He is a seasoned higher education professional who will bring to NCC many talents, including his years spent as the president of Farmingdale State College. Dr. Keen also served as a special assistant to the SUNY Provost; an interim

president at SUNY Old Westbury; provost and vice president for Academic Affairs at CUNY’s York College; and professor and dean of Arts and Sciences at SUNY Cortland.

“I’m very much looking forward to beginning my appointment at Nassau Community College. I thank the Search Committee, Board of Trustees, Chancellor Zimpher and the SUNY Board of Trustees for their endorsement of

me for the Presidency at Nassau,” said Dr. Keen. “An image has emerged for me over the years of an excellent faculty and staff at NCC. I also know their dedication to the institution and am pleased to work with all constituencies on our common goals—providing excellent education and services for the students.”

“Dr. Keen brings a wealth of experience and knowledge to Nassau Community College,” said Dr. Jorge Gardyn, Chair of the Nassau Community College Board of Trustees. “The Board is excited about working with our next president. We look forward to a new era of growth and advancement.”

SUNY Chancellor Nancy L. Zimpher stated that she has every confidence that Dr. Keen’s leadership of Nassau Community College will serve as an important and impactful turning point for the campus, one that will greatly benefit NCC’s students, faculty and staff.

Dr. Keen will be an invaluable asset to NCC as the College moves forward in future years to become an ever better community college that provides its students with a high quality, affordable higher education.

2 Nassau Community College - Nexus Summer 2016

When I arrived at the Nassau Community College campus for

my brief term as Interim President, I was proud to tell people that I had been sending students to Nassau for almost 30 years. In my roles as teacher, school administrator, high school principal and Superintendent, I was always eager to suggest Nassau as

that local, high quality and affordable option. I believed that it would be an excellent place for many of my students to start their college careers.

During my time here, I have been given an opportunity to evaluate the quality of that advice that I had been offering for those three decades. I have now seen first-hand the experiences that students enjoy here on this campus, the academic opportunities that they are afforded, and the wide range of athletic and extracurricular activities that are available to all. I have also learned about a vibrant foreign study program, a remarkable job placement effort, rigorous articulation programs with other schools, and, of course, myriad success stories of students who chose to continue their studies at another college and were able to transfer with great ease.

I’ve also been able to experience a campus environment that has a constantly improving physical plant. As I leave office we are on the cusp of opening a

new Student Services Center that will become the key location for students from the moment that they apply until they have accumulated sufficient credits to graduate. Other facilities on campus are being upgraded and updated and our campus is on the way to becoming a beautiful blend of the traditional and the modern.

Finally, in the year that I’ve enjoyed, I have interacted with some of the most talented and dedicated students I’ve ever met. They are fully committed to making their Nassau experience a positive and productive one and it comes as no surprise to me that they are so successful. For many Nassau students, their biggest complaint is that we are not a four-year school!

So, upon close investigation, I’ve come to learn that the advice I offered for all of those years was sound. Students who take advantage of this experience at Nassau benefit in a wide variety of ways. So, what is the secret to their success?

One of my promises to students over the last 30 years (“hokey” as it might have been) has been that “Nassau Community College is like a cookie jar. You will get out of it everything that you put into it.” That has proven to be the case and I am honored to have been given the chance to contribute a bit to this fine institution, and to have served our remarkable students.

As a middle-class kid growing up in Levittown, I was taught and reminded by my mother how

important my education was to my future success, especially if I wanted to achieve my dream of one day serving as a U.S. Congressman. I chose to attend Nassau Community College (NCC) because I knew it would give me access to an affordable higher education close to home. The education I received at NCC laid a solid foundation for me to excel at a four-year institution. It also instilled in me the importance of playing an active role in my community, preparing me for my future in local and national politics. My experience at NCC confirmed for me how much this institution cares about the academic development of its students. Small class sizes allowed me to build relationships with my professors and classmates, which made learning a much more personal experience. NCC offered a wide range of programs to accommodate the diverse group of students they served. I was surrounded by peers who were working full-time or raising families, in addition to their class load. That example inspired me to work full-time on Capitol Hill after I went on to attend George Washington University. NCC understood the need to be flexible and work with students to reach their goals and that was a lesson I have carried with me throughout my career.

According to the American Association of Community Colleges (AACC), 45 percent of all American undergraduates attend or have attended one of the 1,108 community colleges in the United States. The same AACC study shows that in students enrolled for credit at community colleges, 57 percent are women, 22 percent are Hispanic, 49 percent are adult students, and 36 percent are first-generation college students. The student body at NCC reflects the cultural diversity that makes our Long Island community so unique—a community in which I am proud to have raised my two daughters. My peers ranged from students as diverse as a mother of three working towards a degree to better provide for her family, to an established small business owner studying part-time to earn a certification in website design, and students like myself looking to move on to a four-year institution. We were all at different stages in life and came from different backgrounds, but we shared the same commitment to our community and our academic success. My two years at NCC provided me with more than just a degree. I received an excellent and affordable education in the community I loved, allowing me to continue my education at a four-year university. With the price of an undergraduate education soaring

for students looking to get ahead and build toward their careers, NCC is an important resource that allowed me to save money, discover my talents and passions and move ahead as I pursued my dream of serving in Congress. As I prepare to leave Congress after the election in November, I know that Nassau Community College played an integral role in helping me become an effective Representative. I am committed to supporting community colleges, which are essential to continued education, college degrees and the economic vitality of Long Island. As I have said many times over my 16 years in Washington, I wouldn’t be in Congress if it wasn’t for the education and opportunities I received at NCC. For that, I am grateful and will continue to fight for the values I learned at NCC and the need for access to a quality education so other Americans can realize their dreams like I did.

Nassau Community College has named CulinArt Group for its dining service operations. “In our decision to change dining service vendors, we explored various criteria and found that CulinArt Group’s forward-thinking, food-first philosophy; its

commitment to affordability and healthy options; and its dedicated management team were the perfect fit for the College’s goals and objectives,” said Dr. Joseph Muscarella, Vice President, Facilities Management at Nassau Community College. “We are looking forward to all that CulinArt has to offer the students, faculty and staff of Nassau Community College.” As part of its plans for the College’s dining services, CulinArt Group will renovate the existing Top Flight Food Court over the summer months to introduce new offerings, a new look and a new name that is yet to be determined. Among the possible offering options are its Tuscan Bistro concept, a revamped and expanded chopped salad station, a Mediterranean grill, a Smash n’ Shake burger and fries concept, Wicked Wings and Tenders, and a made-to-order NY deli sandwich station. A satellite location in Building V will also be revamped this summer, while the Cluster B location will open in early June. CulinArt has also assumed all campus catering.

More details about NCC’s new dining services will follow this summer.

“Our goal is to make a student’s experience with enrollment, academic records, financial aid and making payments as smooth, efficient and friendly as possible,” said Maria Conzatti, Vice President for Academic Student Services, part of the NCC team which worked on the project. “It’s a single location where students can take care of a range of school-related business, all under one roof.”

Student service area representatives will also access the new system to update student records, resulting in fewer forms, making it a “greener” solution for the College.

EXPANSIVE CENTER IS CENTRALLY LOCATEDThe Student Services Center will house several student service departments: Academic Advisement, Admissions, Bursar, Financial Aid, Health Records, Information Services, NCC ID Cards, Placement Testing, Registrar, Student Financial Affairs, and Veterans Affairs. Information Services representatives will be on hand to provide assistance in the student service process.

“We expect this facility to completely transform the new student experience at NCC. After several years of planning and construction, we are looking forward to making a significant improvement in service to the NCC community,” said Dr. Joseph Muscarella, Vice President, Facilities Management. The Center’s 33,000 square feet encompasses 16,000 existing square feet of the Lower Level of the Tower Building and another 17,000 square feet of adjacent exterior space. It has five entrances to provide improved access from all areas of the campus. Glass front offices and exterior walls are

designed to provide ample natural light for staff and visitors. Cushioned lobby seating keeps the space comfortable and inviting in the common waiting areas.

The new Student Services Center at Nassau Community College is part of the College’s ongoing efforts to improve the student service experience.

Over 10,000 people attended Nassau Community College’s 2016 graduation ceremony, held on the campus

quadrangle on May 22. Speaking to graduates, graduate candidates and family members, Dr. Jorge Gardyn, Chair of the NCC Board of Trustees, said, “Today is the culmination of your hard work and dedication. … You have been given a solid foundation from which to start your life’s journey.” Dr. Thomas Dolan, the College’s Interim President, congratulated the students on their achievement and stated, “Questions, not just answers, are the way that we learn, and the fact is the questions are often as important as the answers.”

Jillian Pallone, valedictorian of the class of 2016, reminded her fellow students that, “There is no doubt that the education we have received here has prepared us well for the next chapter in our lives.” She also extolled the students’ opportunity to participate in the College’s vibrant campus life.

There were 3,866 graduates and graduate candidates in the class of 2015-2016, which consisted of students who graduated in August of 2015, December of 2015 and May of 2016.

The Nassau Community College wrestling team won the National Junior College Athletic Association

(NJCAA) 2016 Non-Scholarship National Championship this spring in Council Bluffs, Iowa. This is NCC’s eighth NJCAA Non-Scholarship National Championship in the past 14 years. In addition, four of the College’s student athletes received All-American honors. Nassau’s Head Coach Paul Schmidt was named NJCAA National Coach of the Year for the seventh time.

“NCC certainly peaked at the right time this year, and their successes at the National Championship were well deserved! Congratulations to the team and the coaching staff. I am especially pleased to see so much of our National Championship team populated by local talent,” said Dr. Thomas Dolan, Interim President of the College.

The four Nassau Community College student athletes who received All-American Honors were: Sam Schwartzapfel, NJCAA All-American, 3rd place; Deuly Espinal, NJCAA All-American, Honorable Mention, 5th place; Jenard Rosemond, NWCA (National Wrestling Coaches Association), All-American, 6th place; Josh Antoine, NWCA, All-American, 8th place.

“I was especially pleased watching the team improve over the season. We started off with losses against the University of Oklahoma and SUNY Binghamton, which helped us prepare for the rest of the season,” stated NCC Coach Schmidt. “The students not only excelled on the mat but also in the classroom. All of the sophomores are graduating and going on to continue their education at four-year institutions. I’m very proud of them."

The 2015-16 Nassau Community College Cheerleading team won the national championship at the Universal

Cheerleaders Association (UCA) College Cheerleading and Dance Team National Championship, which took place at the ESPN Wide World of Sports Center in Orlando, Florida. The team took first place in the 11-team Open All Girl Division with a two-minute, thirty-second routine based on their performance, execution, difficulty and skill level. “I join with the entire community in exclaiming our pride for the accomplishment achieved by our cheerleaders,” said Dr. Thomas Dolan, Interim President of Nassau Community College. “They represent the best our students can offer and deserve our acclaim and appreciation.”

According to Assistant Cheerleading Coach Linda Leonardo, “The team really pushed through a difficult season together. They worked hard and absolutely deserve this honor.” Practicing twice a day, the team performed at high school exhibitions as further preparation for the UCA competition.

“We are honored to represent our school and we appreciate the support and guidance of our coaches and cheerleading alumni, who were always there for us,” said team captain, Dora Panagos. Twenty members of Nassau Community College’s cheerleading team competed at the event.

An additional performance by four members of the NCC cheerleading team placed in the top ten in the All Girl Partner Stunt Championship, a real feat, as this was NCC’s first foray into that competition.

Michael Hilt is excited about his role as the new Student Trustee on the Nassau

Community College Board of Trustees. “I look forward to representing my fellow students and being their advocate on the board,” he said. The second-year student, who was a freshman senator in the academic senate during the 2015-2016 academic year, is glad that students at NCC have the opportunity to have their voices heard. He

realizes that any decisions made by the board will affect current students as well as those in future years. He also wants to continue to learn about how such decisions are made.

A graduate of Sewanhaka High School, the 19-year old Hilt is very active in the many facets of student life at NCC, such as the programming board

and the NCC Day of Service. He encourages other students to participate in extracurricular activities as well, which he believes is another way not only to acquire skills that can be used later in life, but also to make friends from diverse backgrounds. “A student here has so many ways to grow and have different experiences, both inside and outside the classroom. It’s something that we definitely should take advantage of,” he said.

Hilt, a liberal arts major with a concentration in political science, is passionate about trade agreements and the globalization of our economies and society. The more our societies become involved with each other economically, he believes, the more they will communicate and understand each other. After he graduates from Nassau Community College, Hilt plans to continue on to a four-year school, and eventually pursue a career in the foreign service, a division of the U.S. State Department staffed by diplomatic and consular personnel stationed overseas.

For as long as she can remember, Jillian Pallone has been an enthusiastic person,

and she has brought that attitude to NCC as well. During her time at the College, Pallone—the valedictorian of the Class of 2016—has, as a volunteer, worked with the children at the NCC Children’s Greenhouse, disabled students, and a student from Pakistan through the NCC language immersion program, all the while maintaining a perfect 4.0 GPA. “My experience at NCC has been so positive that I’m excited to be able to share

it with my fellow students and everyone who attends graduation,” she said. Pallone is grateful that students are able to take advantage of the myriad services at NCC, including the writing center, the math center and a wide variety of other resources.

Pallone was especially happy to be able to meet students from different cultures as a student at the College. “Every one of us is unique, but our humanity unites us all,” she believes.

Pallone, 20, was on the Teacher Education transfer track at the College. “My professors at NCC really inspired me. They have helped mold me into the teacher I want to become,” she said. Pallone was president of the Future Teachers Club at Nassau. She also credits her parents, both of whom are teachers, as her source of inspiration.

A Phi Theta Kappa student and a SUNY Chancellor’s Award winner, Pallone has received a full scholarship to Hofstra University to continue her studies. She plans to become a special education teacher, and will always have a special place in her heart for NCC.

The focus of Jean Leroy’s tenure as the new Student Government

Association president can be summarized in three words: improving campus life. The 19-year old plans to talk with as many students as possible to find out about their needs and wants. “As the incoming SGA president, I want to let students know that we all are very approachable and we need their help to find out what’s important

to them,” said Leroy, who was a senator in the Student Government Association during the 2015-2016 academic year. He intends to be the students’ advocate with the administration.

Leroy also intends to explore avenues of improving communication

between students and the administration, as well as ways to increase students’ involvement in campus life.

Leroy is a Baldwin resident who played football and ran track in high school. He was also involved with the Future Business Leaders of America. Nassau Community College exceeded his expectations. “I already knew about NCC’s affordability and convenience, but I also like that fact that the classes here are challenging,” he said. In addition, “the faculty are always willing to help out students.” Leroy has also been happy to be part of a wide circle of friends at NCC. For these reasons, he would definitely recommend Nassau Community College to others.

After graduating from the College, Leroy hopes to transfer to a four-year school and pursue a career in architecture.
