'Real world' SUNY
Chancellor sez grads will finish with more experience
BY CAYLA BAMBERGER
NEWS EDUCATION REPORTER
The new State University of New York chancellor, John King, laid out his
vision for New York's public colleges and universities Wednesday with a focus
on all students gaining "real-world" experience before graduation.
King, a former state education commissioner and federal education secretary
under President Barack Obama, called research and scholarship an area of
"consistent triumph" for SUNY during his first State of the University
address, but vowed to strengthen that work.
"Today, we announce our goal that every undergraduate will complete a
meaningful research or other real-world internship before they receive their
SUNY degree," King told the audience of state officials, education
policymakers and students and faculty.
The chancellor said the school system "seeded that field" this year with a
new summer undergraduate
