Conclusions

Research Center in Syracuse; and coordination between Tompkins Cortland Community College and SUNY Delhi around workforce development and business assistance programs in the Southern Tier. While many individual campuses may be limited in their capacity to link faculty, curricula, businesses and students, SUNY’s great variety of institutions offers entrepreneurs rich opportunities to make connections, achieve economies of scale and create the kind of multidisciplinary teams that some analysts argue are critical for innovation.v

9

Another great strength of SUNY is the pluralism and diversity of its campuses. The 64-campus system offers many independent, potential sources of initiative, and the diversity of campuses and their specializations means that a wide range of economic needs may be recognized and addressed. In sum, opportunities for innovation, entrepreneurship and economic leadership are widespread in the SUNY system — and can be exploited more fully.

Although SUNY campuses need not act alone, another strength of the system is the fact that they can. The large number of campuses means that SUNY offers many potential sources of economic responsiveness and leadership. If one campus does not see and act on an opportunity, another campus may do so, perhaps because the latter’s specializations, educational mission and local circumstances make it more sensitive to certain economic needs or solutions. This diversity of perspective, when joined with the large number of campuses, may be one of SUNY’s greatest assets in promoting growth. Suffolk County Community College, for instance, saw a shortage of nurses on Long Island and partnered with a local hospital to devise an innovative program that offers prospective nursing students multi-year contracts with assured jobs after graduation. SUNY Plattsburgh helped meet the acute need in the North Country to link widely dispersed health facilities by organizing and managing a fiber optic network among providers. And Stony Brook, with help from New York State, established the Center of Excellence in Wireless and Information Technology, in partial response to Long Island’s growing role in the communications industry. A rich variety of such responses may emerge out of a pluralistic system of semi-autonomous campuses, each of which is receptive to different economic opportunities. Some raise the question, “Where will New York State find the next Nano?” But that’s probably the wrong question — or at least one that probably will not be answered until it’s too late, that is, until someone else answers it through their actions. The real question is whether SUNY can find, nurture, develop and unleash the next dozen or two dozen or 200 faculty entrepreneurs; and give those who have some initial success the opportunity to pyramid those into much larger agglomerations of mutually strengthening academic and commercial activities. There is little likelihood that some think tank or planner in state government — or even administrator within a university — could predict which efforts will succeed or fail, much less the magnitude of growth. Perhaps the clearest lesson is to create a context in which such risky efforts are feasible and follow-ups are encouraged. “It’s a struggle to be entrepreneurial,” says Kaloyeros. “Getting the culture right is difficult — the people, the leadership, the accountability, the willingness to take some risk… Part of changing the culture is realizing that our target is not tenure — our target is being successful. Remember our job is to educate, and innovate. If we do that, economic development will follow.”
