No institution of higher learning accomplishes its goals alone. The huge success of our Business Partners and Business Network programs evidences the tremendous support of local corporations through membership on our Foundation Board of Governors as well as through cooperative education and internship programs for our students. Ramapo College is now at a crossroads on its continued journey to excellence. Robert A. Scott, president emeritus, whose vision led the College for fifteen years, has indeed left Ramapo a much better place than when he came. During this interim period, under the leadership of Dr. Alice Chandler, we continue to move steadily and strongly forward with the Foundation's strategic plan.
Many exciting challenges lie on the road ahead.
In order to meet our mission and continue to make a difference at Ramapo College, the Foundation's role continues to expand and grow. The development committee of the Foundation will oversee the functions of fund-raising and our strategic plan. Please join me in working for a successful future for Ramapo College through our work at the Foundation together we can continue the progress, the learning, and the excellence in education so highly valued at Ramapo.
