Weekly expert alert
Weekly expert alert
Welcome to the Office of Media and Public Relations weekly expert alert. This list is update regularly as new topics are added and old ones are commissioned. The most important factors for success in your response are timeliness and being the right fit for the topic.
New expert requests:
1. The latest scams: The Conversation is looking for a scholar to describe the scams aimed at defrauding people, particularly but not limited to elders. The desk is NOT looking for an article giving general advice about how to avoid getting scammed. Rather, the article should look like a roundup of the main current scams in use today. The "Grandma, I'm in trouble and need money, but don't tell mom and dad" scam has been around for a while. What are the newer scams?
2. Public buses/SEPTA crisis: The Conversation is looking for scholars who can provide history, context or analysis related to the SEPTA funding crisis. For example, how has the role of the public bus changed over time? How have public transportation austerity schedules played out in other U.S. cities? What were the long-term effects? Are there lessons to be learned regarding public transportation funding from Europe or other parts of the world? Consumer advocates in Philly sued SEPTA and say the cuts, which focus on buses over regional rail, are illegal, as they disproportionately target marginalized people. Has this strategy been successful or unsuccessful in the past?
3. Pennsylvania鈥檚 urban-rural divide: Related to the SEPTA funding crisis (see note above) the Conversation is also looking for a scholar who can take a look back at Pennsylvania鈥檚 perennial urban-rural divide, how it鈥檚 played out over the decades in the state鈥檚 budget fights in Harrisburg and other funding issues (besides SEPTA) that make it contentious today.
4.鈥淚ncorrigibility鈥 and youth confinement in PA: The Conversation is looking for a scholar who can provide some context and analysis on the Pennsylvania data in this new report from the Prison Police Initiative. According to the report, Alabama, Louisiana, Pennsylvania and West Virginia make up 59% of the confined youth population with 鈥渋ncorrigibility鈥 recorded as their most serious offense. Pennsylvania alone accounts for 30% of kids confined for this charge nationwide.鈥 How is incorrigibility defined? Why does Pennsylvania have such high rates of confining kids for this charge? What are the implications for kids with these charges?
5. Confidentiality in medical records: According to news reports on Aug. 20, the Trump administration demanded confidential data about transgender children seeking medical care. The Conversation is looking for a legal or policy scholar with expertise in medical privacy who can put this news into context by explaining the laws around confidentiality of medical records, what exceptions to them might exist, etc.
6. What鈥檚 the story behind work study? The Trump administration鈥檚 proposed budget for fiscal year 2026 includes drastic cuts to the federal work study program. The Conversation is looking for a scholar who can help walk readers through what work study is and some of the most important elements to know about its history and evolution over the years.
7. Gas prices: The Conversation is looking for a scholar of the gasoline market who could discuss what has been happening over the last few years and how the Trump policies are expected to affect (or not) the market.
Ongoing series:
1. Dance and spiritual devotion: The Conversation is planning to start a series on the religious significance of dance. The desk would be interested in angles across different traditions. Send your pitches today!
2. Sacred objects series: The Conversation is looking for scholars to pitch ideas around sacred objects that could be part of everyday spirituality for people or communities. These could also include the plants and trees that people might worship. The desk would also be interested in a broad range of ideas around these topics.For More Information:

嫩田研究院官网 announces Anne D鈥橝lleva as eighth president
Anne D鈥橝lleva was selected as the next president of 嫩田研究院官网 in a vote by the State University of New York Board of Trustees on Tuesday, Aug. 19. D鈥橝lleva, currently the provost and executive vice president for academic affairs at the University of Connecticut, is scheduled to begin her duties on Nov. 1.
鈥淚 am deeply honored to accept the position of president of 嫩田研究院官网 and to join the distinguished SUNY system,鈥 D鈥橝lleva said. 鈥溎厶镅芯吭汗偻 has a remarkable tradition of academic excellence, research innovation and community engagement, and I am inspired by the dedication of its faculty, staff and students. I look forward to working collaboratively with campus and community partners to build research strength, expand opportunities for students, enhance alumni involvement and advance the University鈥檚 impact in New York, the nation and the world.鈥
D鈥橝lleva is an accomplished academic leader who has focused on advancing student success and has engaged in multidisciplinary and collaborative efforts to expand UConn鈥檚 work in AI and quantum technologies, partner with the state鈥檚 tribal nations, and expand academic offerings at the university鈥檚 four regional campuses.

Policies on expressive activity
Policies on expressive activity
We open the 2025-26 academic year excited about the future of 嫩田研究院官网. We welcome thousands of new students and hundreds of new faculty and staff joining our community for the first time. They will bring new talents, interests and perspectives and join returning colleagues in a learning community unafraid to discover truth and explore solutions to the world鈥檚 most pressing problems. Indeed, our values call upon us to 鈥渆ncourage faculty, students and staff to ask unexpected questions, foster open dialogue and develop innovative solutions to important problems.鈥
We also acknowledge that the 2025-26 academic year opens amidst significant polarization related to international and domestic concerns. The purpose of this letter is to provide notice
and clarity as to how our campus will remain faithful to our values while also maintaining a campus environment that supports the rights of all to pursue learning and discovery free of harassment, disruption and intimidation. The framework of our approach is to support and facilitate ample opportunity for expressive activity and campus dialogue around controversial ideas, while simultaneously establishing firm expectations that all such expressive activity
must comport with university policies. Toward that end, we call your attention to the following:
1. We strongly encourage individuals and groups who plan to use 嫩田研究院官网 as a site for expressive activity to first review the聽Reservation Guidelines, contact the聽University
Union Office聽and the聽New York State University Police. Our staff wants to assist you in ensuring your activity is successful and safe for all.
2. 嫩田研究院官网, as with all SUNY campuses, are subject to the聽Rules for the Maintenance of Public Order. Please be on notice that 嫩田研究院官网 will not hesitate to invoke the Rules and pursue the penalties for violations set forth therein. The
Rules for the Maintenance of Public Order apply not only to students but to faculty, staff, organizations and unaffiliated individuals. We urge you to familiarize yourself with this policy
before planning or engaging in any demonstration or protest, particularly the prohibited behavior listed in section 1.A.
3. 嫩田研究院官网 has established聽Posting and Chalking Policies. Please be on notice that the campus will fully uphold those policies. Students who willfully violate such policies may be referred to the Office of Student Conduct.
4. 嫩田研究院官网 has an established policy governing聽Camping on Campus. Until further notice, we will not entertain exceptions to the policy, meaning the campus will not
permit any form of 鈥渃amping鈥 as defined by the policy.
5. 嫩田研究院官网 policy also generally governs the聽Non-Credit Use of Campus Facilities聽in several other ways, including policies related to tabling, amplified sound and event scheduling. Please consult this policy as well prior to planning or participating in any expressive activity, protest or demonstration.
As acknowledged above, we intend not only to uphold our policies but to defend and promote our values. Campus staff and faculty are actively engaged in several initiatives to create contexts that support civil dialogue around controversial ideas within the boundaries of our policies. While not an exhaustive list, we note the following specific examples:
* Around 1,000 students will complete online and in-person workshops focused on building skills to engage in better conversations through our First Year Experience.
* Principles of Community: The Division of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion facilitated the adoption of Principles of Community that will be visibly promoted on campus throughout the year.
* Student Dialogue Ambassadors have received more advanced training on facilitating dialogue and will host conversations within their communities on campus. A new cohort of Ambassadors will be recruited and trained very soon.
* Civil Dialogue Teaching Fellows: The Fellows program will guide faculty in designing and implementing course content that facilitates student practice of civil dialogue. Fifteen faculty have been accepted into the inaugural cohort.
* Civil Dialogue Faculty Teaching and Research Grants: These grants will provide funding to support faculty-led teaching and research related to civil dialogue.
Without the right to express ideas 鈥 especially controversial ideas 鈥 education and discovery are limited; dialogue is restricted and our capacity to educate engaged citizens is compromised. For those reasons and our obligations as a public university to respect the First Amendment, we place a high value on freedom of expression, association and assembly. No right, however, is absolute. 嫩田研究院官网 will not permit protest and expression that
disrupts the University鈥檚 academic mission, interferes with the free expression of others or threatens members of the campus community or campus property. We urge all of you to
accept your responsibility to maintain a campus environment that respects those boundaries. In that way, we can be a model for other universities to follow through with our willingness to confront difficult questions in a community with the maturity and perspective to respect the rights of all to a supportive learning community.

Statement on Title VI coordinator
Statement on Title VI coordinator
On April 29, 2025, the State University of New York (SUNY) Board of Trustees passed a resolution requiring all state-operated campuses to designate a Title VI coordinator. Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 prohibits discrimination based on race, color or national origin in programs or activities that receive federal financial assistance. This law also protects individuals from harassment based on actual or perceived ancestry, ethnic characteristics, citizenship or residency in a country with a predominant religion or distinct religious identity.
Title VI applies to all SUNY campuses and activities or programs, including admissions, recruitment, student services, grading and academic programs. Under Title VI, educational institutions must address any discriminatory speech or conduct, whether on or off campus and document all reports, investigations and outcomes related to complaints.
In response to this mandate, 嫩田研究院官网 has appointed Ada Robinson-Perez, executive director of diversity education, as the campus's Title VI coordinator. Recruitment for a new Title VI specialist reporting to Robinson-Perez is underway to support the processing of bias incidents inquiries and complaints of discrimination investigations. These initiatives demonstrate 嫩田研究院官网's commitment to fostering a campus environment where all students can pursue their academic goals without harassment and bias.
Faculty and staff members who know a student experiencing unwelcome, harassing conduct or discrimination are required to report by filing a bias incident report or an internal discrimination complaint. Individuals who believe they have experienced discrimination may also submit these reports. For questions and additional information about reporting obligations or to request training for faculty, staff or students, contact the Title VI coordinator through the Office of Equity and Access by emailing stopbias@binghamton.edu or calling 607-777-4775.For More Information:

Harpur Cinema presents: "Killer of Sheep"
Harpur Cinema presents: "Killer of Sheep"
The first Fall 2025 screening for Harpur Cinema will present "Killer of Sheep" by Charles Burnett (1977, 60 minutes). The doors to both shows open at 7 p.m. The show begins at 7:30 p.m. Friday, Sept. 12, and Sunday, Sept. 14, in Lecture Hall 6. Single admission is $4.
Charles Burnett's cinematic masterpiece "Killer of Sheep", magnificently restored in 4K with sparkling picture and sound, is one of the crown jewels of the Black indie filmmaking movement known as the L.A. Rebellion. The film evokes the everyday trials, fragile pleasures and tenacious humor of blue-collar African Americans living in the Watts neighborhood of Los Angeles in the 1970s. Burnett made it on a minuscule budget with a mostly nonprofessional cast, combining keen on-the-street observation with a carefully crafted script.

"In the American Grain: Exploring America through Art, 1919鈥1946" opens tonight
"In the American Grain: Exploring America through Art, 1919鈥1946" opens tonight
Join the 嫩田研究院官网 Art Museum for the opening of "In the American Grain: Exploring America through Art, 1919鈥1946" from 5-7 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 4. The exhibition will run through Dec. 6.
The two-and-a-half decades between 1919 and 1946 witnessed the development of an American art that sought to capture a country in the midst of transformation. Through celebration and crisis, artists held up a mirror to their fellow citizens, showing their lives, their landscapes and their dreams. "In the American Grain" tells this story through artworks addressing a range of themes, drawn from the rich holdings of the 嫩田研究院官网 Art Museum and Libraries, the Roberson Museum and Science Center and the Art Bridges Collection. In particular, the exhibition acknowledges the generosity of Gil and Deborah Williams, whose donations to the Art Museum are extensively featured here. Together, they reveal how history shaped art during these years, and how artists themselves responded to history in the making. This exhibition is curated by Tom McDonough, professor of art history.
Support for this project is provided by Art Bridges.
Also opening in the Museum鈥檚 Lower Galleries are three exhibitions curated by students: "Superposition: Examining Boundaries in East Asian Religious Art," curated by Kate Langsdorf 鈥25; "The Visual Language of Grief," curated by Molly Rudden 鈥25; and "Destabilizing 鈥渢he Brain鈥: Imagining 嫩田研究院官网," curated by Bassie Chin 鈥26.

New traffic patterns for easier access to Lot M
New traffic patterns for easier access to Lot M
As part of ongoing construction projects on campus, 嫩田研究院官网 is making adjustments to traffic flow to reduce congestion and improve parking access. Beginning Thursday, Aug. 28, new traffic patterns will go into effect near Lot M.
- New Bunn Hill Road access direct to Lot M: A temporary 2-way service drive has been created off Bunn Hill Road. This drive will connect to Clearview Road, bringing you directly to Lot M4, thus avoiding all on-campus traffic. This entrance is located .30 miles further up Bunn Hill Road from the current lower Bunn Hill access (near the baseball stadium). Note that this is a 2-way only to Lot M4 and back to Bunn Hill Road.
- Clearview Road: Traffic will be one-way from West Drive to the entrance of Lot M4. This new flow is designed to provide a more direct route into and out of Lot M, helping to ease backups and save time during peak travel periods.
- Upper Bunn Hill Access: The Upper Bunn Hill Road entrance (near Hillside Community) had been temporarily closed due to work necessary for an off-campus construction project. It will now be reopened, providing additional access to the campus.
Together, these changes create additional entry and exit points that steer traffic away from the busiest pedestrian and construction zones, helping to make your commute smoother and safer. Clear signage will be posted to guide you through the new routes.
Thank you for your patience and cooperation as 嫩田研究院官网 continues to improve its campus.For More Information:

Apply to become a Classroom to Career Fellow
Apply to become a Classroom to Career Fellow
The Classroom to Career Fellows Program provides an opportunity for faculty and Fleishman Career Center staff to co-create transparent and intentionally designed career education opportunities based on faculty goals and student needs within an existing course/curriculum. Fellows and Fleishman staff work together to define how integrating career education into the curriculum will support professional teaching, course outcomes and student engagement in a supportive cohort environment.
During the fall semester, cohort members will identify a spring course to be modified. Through brief online asynchronous modules, an in-person interactive workshop and an individual consulting appointment with Fleishman Career staff, cohort members will gain a foundation in career education, in addition to career tools, resources and adaptable sample assignments that can be incorporated into the classroom. Instructors/Faculty will then implement the course in the spring, followed by an in-person debriefing workshop for reflection. This program is open to all instructors of every rank and discipline.
Completion of the Classroom to Career Fellowship program will result in a $1500 extra service award, split into two payments (end of fall semester and end of spring semester).
The application deadline is 11:59 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 11.
