MESSAGE FROM PRESIDENT M I G U E L M A R TI N E Z-SA E NZ , P H . D.

To all in the St. Francis College family,

W

e had a great start to the 2019-20 academic year.

Students, faculty and staff returned for TERRIER TUESDAY. With the cooperation of our neighbors and assistance of our local NYPD Community Affairs Bureau, we closed Remsen Street and hosted a Welcome Back Block Party: food, fun, and Franciscan hospitality at its best. On the first day of classes, we continued a relatively new tradition of serving the students a cultural meal—this year we featured African cuisine. The following day we hosted a ribbon-cutting ceremony for our brand new Troops to Teachers & Veterans Lounge (see page 14). I proudly share that SFC has bolstered its support of veteran students. We are now a designated Military Friendly School, a Yellow Ribbon Program participant, and home to New York State’s only chapter of Troops to Teachers, a federal program that helps military members and veterans transition to new careers in education.

Needless to say, we kicked off the year with energy that comes from friends reconnecting, excitement about what is to come, and a refreshed community eager to make this another stellar year. We welcomed a returning student body that is diverse and high-achieving, and an incoming class that is the largest in recent times. So much credit goes to extraordinary faculty and staff who go above and beyond each and every day. Moreover, we thank our believers. It is our strong partnerships with alumni, parents, friends of the College, foundations, corporations, and elected officials from all levels of government that enable us to grow our academic programs, expand and upgrade our facilities, add endeavors like Troops to Teachers, Terriers Come Home, and SFC International, and ultimately earn national recognition.

All of this and so much more fosters a great sense of pride of what we do together for those we serve, and gives clear indication that there is nothing small about the impact the Small College of Big Dreams is having.

We need to pause and reflect on the great work being done, the incredible investment that our believers make through their time, talent and treasure, and the impact we are having locally, nationally and globally. It is an honor and privilege to share U.S. News ranked nearly 1,400 colleges and universities for the 35th edition of the rankings, and among 58 northern regional colleges ranked in the study, SFC came in 13th for overall academic quality and placed in the top 10 on the following lists: Top Performers on Social Mobility (#2): Demonstrating SFC’s success in enrolling and graduating large proportions of economically disadvantaged students.

Best Colleges for Veterans (#5): Indicating SFC’s effective participation in federal initiatives that help veterans and active-duty service members pay for their degrees.

Best Value Schools (#6): Reflecting SFC’s strong academics coupled with its modest average net cost per student.

Last academic year, my second anniversary at SFC, was a year of anniversaries to remember and celebrate: 160 years of St. Francis College, 50 years of educating lay women, 50 years of SFC soccer (and now a women’s team to “boot”), 50 years of Professor John McCabe lighting up a classroom with his abstract and practical wisdom, humor, and so much more.

A highlight that is front and center is a moment at the 2019 Charter Award Dinner when seven of the first 12 lay women walked on stage to a standing ovation by event attendees, received flowers presented by seven current students, and were moved by the monumental moment for the ages. It was the yesterdays, todays and tomorrows right before us, a living documentary. It was powerful.

We must never forget the impact that this special place has had on those that came before us, those who are present today, and the impact it will have and those that will follow. It is clearly evident through the rankings shared, the good work we do, and most importantly, the people we put out into the world. They are global citizens who carry and share their Franciscan values with all they come in contact with—through word and action.

As we pause and reflect, we also share our heartfelt gratitude for “believing” in the SFC of today and the investment you are making in the SFC of tomorrow. We are proud to steward the mission entrusted to us by the Franciscan Brothers of Brooklyn, and it is a privilege to partner with each of you.

We are all DRIVEN BY DREAMS !

In peace and friendship,

Miguel Martinez-Saenz, Ph.D. President, St. Francis College

More than 60 Graduate at 2019 Winter Commencement

S

ixty-two graduates from the St. Francis College Class of 2019 were joined by family and friends for the College’s winter 2019 Commencement ceremony at the St. Charles Borromeo Church in Brooklyn on Tuesday, January 22, 2019. A Baccalaureate Mass was held immediately before the Commencement ceremony.

Diana Okon ’19, a Childhood Education major, who was born in Brooklyn and raised in New Jersey, was selected as valedictorian for the Winter 2019 graduating class. During her undergraduate years, Okon interned at P.S. 110 as a student-teacher and returned there in September to work as a first-grade teacher.

“St. Francis has helped prepare me for life after graduation because this experience has given me the knowledge and compassion to become a great teacher,” said Okon.

Dr. Frank Sorrentino, Professor of Political Science, offered the Winter Commencement Address. After serving SFC for the past 41 years, Sorrentino retired this year.

“The most important thing I want to leave with students is that they should not only dream, but they should feel they have it within themselves to achieve,” said Sorrentino.

“That greatness is only the beginning, life is a series of finding the work you love and doing it with all your passion and all your enthusiasm.”

Be a full-rounded human being. Learn as much as you can.

Learn from mistakes. And always stay focused and determined.”

New York City is the first city in the world that has a neighborhood for every country in the world, inhabited by people born in that country…But the interesting thing is if you go to those neighborhoods, and…you say to people, ‘what are you?’ they’ll say ‘I’m a New Yorker’…they see themselves in a larger whole…the whole is greater than the sum of the parts.”

2019 COMMENCEMENT

St. Francis College Awards Its First Master of Fine Arts Degrees

The world needs more readers. The world needs more people with imagination. So figure out a way to cultivate the imagination,” said St. Francis College President Miguel MartinezSaenz, Ph.D. In his address at the July 15, 2019 ceremony awarding diplomas to the first six students to complete the College’s Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing program, MartinezSaenz encouraged the graduates to connect their work with audiences who will find joy in reading it.

“I urge you—as you think about developing your craft—to think about your audience,” said Martinez-Saenz to MFA graduates Noel Jones, Vincent Longobardi, Matt Marvilli, Steven Moller, Justin Reinsilber, and Adela Sinclair. “Reading is one of these art forms we’ve lost. We need to figure out how to reinvigorate it.”

SFC launched its two-year MFA program in 2017 under the direction of English faculty member Theo Gangi, and it has since enrolled more than 25 writers. Graduating students completed their degrees on one of three tracks—poetry, fiction or dramatic screenwriting/playwriting—and worked remotely other than two 10-day, full-time residencies each year at SFC’s Brooklyn campus. During those residencies they took part in workshops, readings, and discussions. The six MFA graduates wrapped their final residency at St. Francis from July 5 to 15, 2019.

“They trusted us as a program and a school with their livelihoods and futures,” said Gangi. “It’s really satisfying to see it working out for them and then moving onto the next stage. Some are writing professionally, some are teaching.

So, we feel really good about the program’s success.”

Among those guiding the students included Man Booker Prize Winner Marlon James, named one of Time Magazine’s 100 Most Influential People this year; National Book Award finalist Jamel Brinkley; Cave Canem poet Mahogany Browne, who serves as the program’s poetry coordinator; and playwright Ben Snyder, the program’s dramatic writing coordinator.

“I got to work with Lincoln Michel and Jamel Brinkley and they’re both recognized as being great short story writers for good reason,” said Jones, who focused on short fiction.

“I definitely have a better understanding of what the structure is of a short story as opposed to just a series of ideas. It’s more than just a series of, ‘and then.’ There’s a lot of that goes into it.”

In 2019, the MFA program also launched Write in Brooklyn, a discussion series with prominent writers from a range of genres open to its students and the broader community.

Guests in the series have included Dominique Morisseau, book writer for the Broadway musical Ain’t Too Proud, young adult novelist Jason Reynolds, poet/writer/actor Amber Tamblyn, and screenwriter/playwright Seth Zvi Rosenfeld.

“It’s just the start for my career,” said Sinclair, who entered the program with a MA in teaching English as a second language from Hunter College. “My book is coming together.

My thesis is my book that I hope to publish. I’ll teach and write books forever.”

A R T S AT S F C

Mirror Mirror on the Wall…, Inaugural Exhibition from the Lise Curry Art Collection St. Francis College debuted curated works from the Lise Curry Art Collection in Mirror Mirror on the Wall…, an exhibition of contemporary portraiture, figure drawing, and sculpture by established and emerging artists.

The show ran from September 19 to December 17, 2019.

Acquired over the course of 30 years, New York City private collector Curry recently gifted more than 220 works to St. Francis that reflect, in many cases, deeply personal, global perspectives on humanity and culture.

“Every artwork I’ve acquired was a result of a ‘coup de coeur’ (strike of the heart),’” said Curry. “If I didn’t have that ‘coup de coeur’ for an artwork, it didn’t come into my home. Every item in my collection is very precious to me.”

Among the artists included in the Mirror Mirror on the Wall… are Béatrice Coron, whose paper cuttings are shown in a collection at the Metropolitan Museum of Art; Lola Flash, whose photography explores gender, sexual, and racial norms and has been included in collections at the Victoria and Albert Museum (London); and Rebecca Morgan, whose paintings, drawing, and ceramics wittily challenge stereotypes about Appalachia and have been exhibited widely in New York City and across the country.

“Each artwork in Mirror Mirror on the Wall… opens a window onto a world, experience, or perspective.

Different works are sure to attract students in different ways,” said Jennifer Wingate, Ph.D., Associate Professor of Fine Arts. “However they move members of the St. Francis community, the art will connect exhibition visitors with the real and imagined experiences of people outside themselves. That connection and inspiration is the real value of art.”

SFC offers a scholarship in the name of Arthur Curry, Lise Curry’s son.

“We’re thrilled that St. Francis College is now home to such a deep collection of contemporary works,” said Thomas Flood, Vice President of Advancement. “We hope our inaugural exhibit is the first of what will be many public displays of a collection well worth the attention of our students and the public.”

Art Exhibit Explores Climate Change Through Art

A Tribute to Women in Jazz Jazz pianist and vocalist Rosalyn McClore, along with her trio, paid tribute to black women in jazz on February 15, 2019, with a concert in St. Francis College’s Founders Hall in celebration of Black History Month.

A Tribute to Black Women in Jazz served as a chronological tribute to blues and jazz from the 1920s to the 1960s to present day featuring a selection of works by some America’s greatest jazz female artists, such Billie Holiday, Nancy Wilson, Ella Fitzgerald, Sarah Vaughn, and Nina Simone.

Environmental Empathies, an interactive, multi-media exhibit, featured film, photography, and other works from 10 New York City-based artists that explored the connection between empathy and action around climate change.

Running from February 6 to March 25, 2019, the show brought to life the current and anticipated effects of climate change on people, plants, and wildlife, and invited visitor participation in an effort to help counteract individual indifference, prompt dialogue, and enrich the artistic creations displayed.

“One of our biggest challenges is the belief that the environmental crisis won’t affect us personally or there’s nothing we can do to stop it,” said show curator Katherine Gressel. “It’s been really rewarding to witness students connecting with the stories of people who are hardest hit by climate change and also having fun engaging creatively with ways to connect with nature, live more sustainably, and get involved in climate activism as an alternative to apathy or hopelessness.”

Fourth Annual Women’s Film Festival Honored Women’s Contributions to Cinema Forty-seven short films by women from 13 countries vied to be among the 1 1 winners of the St. Francis College’s 4th Annual Women’s Film Festival, a three-day event honoring women’s contributions to cinema and showcasing the work of emerging filmmakers from around the globe.

More than 200 filmmakers from 35 countries entered films for the Festival’s consideration in 2019.

The screenings of competing films—each no more than 15 minutes in length—occurred throughout the festival’s run from April 5 to 7, 2019, along with panel sessions in which established female film professionals discussed the art and business of filmmaking.

Concerts at Half-Past Twelve Begins Twentieth Season St. Francis College’s Concerts at Half-Past Twelve returned for the fall 2019 season with Art of the Keyboard, a three-concert series showcasing masterpieces written for harpsichord, piano, and organ from the 18th through the 20th century.

Now in its twentieth year, Concerts at Half-Past Twelve has built a loyal following among St. Francis College and Brooklyn Heights communities, where it is considered a signature live lunchtime musical event. Each season focuses on a different genre or musical category, and features recitals by renowned musicians at the top of their craft.

“We’re thrilled to welcome old and new friends for our fall 2019 season, which should be one of our most memorable,” said Suzanne Forsberg, Ph.D., chair of the SFC Department of Foreign Languages, Fine Arts, and International Cultural Studies and the series’ organizer. “For 20 years we’ve invited our St. Francis College colleagues and Brooklyn neighbors to enjoy world-class musical entertainment right in our own backyard. Our doors remain open to music aficionados and everyone who appreciates a mid-day musical respite.”

SFC 2019 LITERARY PRIZE

Samantha Hunt Wins 2019 SFC Literary Prize for The Dark Dark

“I

was unbelievably surprised. It feels like a rainbow falling out of the sky and landing on my head.”

That was Samantha Hunt’s reaction to learning she won the 2019 SFC Literary Prize for The Dark Dark, her short story collection that explores the wonders and terrors of human biology. Hunt’s work bested five other finalists from 184 entrants this year.

The announcement came during the Brooklyn Book Festival’s gala celebration on September 21, 2019 at City Point in downtown Brooklyn. The biennial SFC Literary Prize began in 2009 and awards $50,000 to a writer’s third to fifth published work of fiction, once they have advanced beyond eligibility for awards for debut works.

A three-member jury—writer Chris Abani, novelist Kate Christensen, and fiction writer Ron Currie—selected the winner, and along with Ian Maloney, Ph.D., SFC English Professor and Director of the Literary Prize, chose the finalists.

“A small paperback collection of stories might not be the obvious choice for a major mid-career literary award, but we chose The Dark Dark…unanimously and without argument,” said Christensen. “Samantha Hunt is not an obvious writer.

Her stories ring with startling sharpness, a deft knife’s-edge slicing into the fatless meat of her tales, then twisting unexpectedly. She has a singular vision with arresting power.”

“Like any reader, I’m looking for prose that reaches out and grabs me by the collar or the throat from the very beginning,” said Currie. “The Dark Dark does that, but what’s more impressive is how it maintains its grip, something particularly impressive in a short story collection. It’s wry, wild, tender, and weird, yet still somehow balanced—equal

parts ecstatic vision and precision craft.”

Hunt published three novels prior to The Dark Dark: Mr. Splitfoot, a ghost story; The Invention of Everything Else, about the life of inventor Nikola Tesla; and The Seas, her first novel, which was republished by Tin House Books in 2018. The recipient of a 2017 Guggenheim Fellowship, Hunt won the Bard Fiction Prize, the National Book Foundation’s 5 Under 35 Prize and she was a finalist for the Orange Prize and the PEN/Faulkner Prize. She has been published by The New Yorker, The New York Times, and a number of other publications.

Hunt describes her approach to writing as processing and contemplating what she has observed and heard around her.

“I come to a work with a question,” she said. “Writing is a way to consider my questions. I never know where a story or a book is heading until the end,” said Hunt, who teaches at Pratt Institute in Brooklyn and lives in upstate New York.

“The idea of The Dark Dark, the title, is an investigation of the things that frighten us, but not enough to hide from them,” she continued. “For example, looking out your back door at night and thinking, ’There’s something spooky out there,’ but rather than locking the door, I’m interested in our desire to walk out into the darkness because we are curious or because we know we are small.”

The other five SFC Literary Prize finalists were: Gun Love by Jennifer Clement This Mournable Body by Tsitsi Dangarembga Where The Dead Sit Talking by Brandon Hobson The Line That Held Us by David Joy New People by Danzy Senna

Photographic Installation Explores Age of the Image

I

n August 2019, interdisciplinary artist Juan Si González installed a series of digitally-manipulated photographs on bold, graphic wallpaper in a lounge area adjacent to St. Francis College’s Genovesi Athletic Center, creating an immersive visual environment intended to engage a younger generation that has grown up with a constant barrage of images.

President Miguel Martinez-Saenz, Ph.D. “asked me to create something special for this space,” explained González. “Young people are on their phones all the time. We consume a lot of images everyday. Today is the day of the image.”

González was born in Santiago de Cuba and has lived in Ohio since 2003, during which time he has been awarded three Ohio Arts Council Individual Excellence Artist Fellowships. His work has been exhibited around the globe.

In an artist’s statement about the show, González said, “the photographs in this series register sudden glitches or gaps in transmission in the unrelenting traffic of media advertisements images during those intervals in which the signal is interrupted and the emitted image breaks up, fragmenting until nearly disintegrating.”

High School Students Participate in Summer Science Academy Two dozen area high school students immersed themselves in hands-on scientific learning at St. Francis College, thanks to the two-week Summer Science Academy organized by Kathleen Nolan, Ph.D., Chair of the Biology and Health Promotion Department, who started the annual program 19 years ago.

From July 8 to July 19, 2019 participating students—all of whom just finished their freshman, sophomore, junior, or senior years of high school—completed projects on nutrition, which involved creating a wholesome three-day meal plan, and marine biodiversity, which required students kayak and seine (capture sea creatures with nets) in local waterways. Students also worked on DNA barcoding, a method of species identification, under the direction of Victoria Ruiz, Ph.D., Assistant Professor of Biology and Health Promotion.

The Brooklyn Bridge Park Conservancy has collaborated with SFC to create additional programs for the Summer Science Academy since 2011. This year, those included sessions to study sustainability through the Park’s solar-power system and to create homemade water filtration systems.

St. Francis College Science Students Monitor Local Water Quality When college students say they’re spending the summer at the shore, you think surfing or sunbathing. For a group of St. Francis College students; however, it meant conducting health-protecting biological research.

Working in collaboration Victoria Ruiz, Ph.D., Assistant Professor of Biology and Health Promotion, a team of six

undergraduates and one recent grad signed on for a 20-week project to monitor the quality of local waterways weekly. SFC was one of 11 partner labs in the New York City Water Trail Association’s annual Citizens Water Quality Testing (CWQT) Program.

St. Francis’ data was included in CWQT’s publicly-available document revealing of the relative hazards of local water sites.

“These places are open to the community,” said Joshlyn Mensah ’22, one of the students conducting the research.

“It’s very traumatic if there’s high levels of these bacteria because it’s very damaging to our health.”

The students worked two days a week, spending one day in the field collecting samples and a second day performing analysis. They said the work not only helped the public, but prepared them for graduate school, a goal they all share.

“The goal of this work is to expose students to research, both as scientists and stewards for the environment embracing social justice, while honing their analytical and critical thinking skills,” said Ruiz. “In addition to the water quality, our students are assessing the levels of enterococci and overall alterations in microbial communities in the water and assessing any potential antibiotic resistance genes present in the microbial community.”

Area Students Take Part in eCamp, St. Francis College’s Bootcamp for Budding Entrepreneurs Fifteen area high school and college students tested their business mettle at St. Francis College’s second annual eCamp, a five-day bootcamp that exposes budding entrepreneurs to the nuts and bolts of starting businesses.

The week culminates with participants pitching their business ideas to SFC

faculty and guests who vote on their favorites.

Hosted by the SFC Center for Entrepreneurship (CFE) from August 5 to 9, 2019, this year’s eCamp focused on social entrepreneurship. Students working in teams were tasked with developing proposals for viable businesses that would also have positive social impact.

“Gen Z is very interested in being entrepreneurs and doing their own thing, whether it’s a side hustle or whether it’s something they plan on doing as their career,” said Eda Sanchez-Persampieri, CFE Director and founder of eCamp, which admitted students aged 16 to 19 this year.

St. Francis Hosts International Whitman Week Kick Off Walt Whitman scholars and enthusiasts from around the globe gathered at St. Francis College on May 27th to kick off International Whitman Week, an annual series of events commemorating the birth of the renowned 19th century poet who called Brooklyn home.

St. Francis Professor of English Ian Maloney, Ph.D. was one of three board members of the Walt Whitman Initiative, a collective of academics and others interested in Whitman’s life and work, to address students and faculty from India, China, Germany, Scotland, England, Australia, Italy, Canada, and the United States at a seminar held in the College’s Founders Hall.

Dr. Maloney spoke about work the initiative is doing to memorialize Whitman’s legacy as one of Brooklyn’s most important literary residents.

“It was confounding to me that there’s not more public acknowledgment in Brooklyn about all that Whitman achieved while living here,” Maloney said of the poet, who resided in the borough for 28 years.

2019 COMMENCEMENT

McGuire Scholarship Program Provides Landmark Support When St. Francis College graduated the Class of 2019, 17 of those students walking across the stage at Coney Island had a distinction that set them apart from the thousands of Terriers who preceded them.

T

hey collected their diplomas as McGuire Scholars.

The Robert J. McGuire Scholarship program launched in 2015 to provide “last dollar” funding to students who exhibit high academic achievement and financial need. The four-year scholarship fills the gap between other financial support and St. Francis’ total tuition and fees, ensuring those selected into the program earn their degrees with limited financial burdens.

Now a flagship scholarship program that has distributed more than $2.4 million to 103 students, the McGuire Scholarship started from the imagination and generosity of Fred Wilpon, Chairman and CEO of the New York Mets, his wife Judy, and Bob McGuire, the scholarship’s namesake and former commissioner of the New York City Police Department. Wilpon provides the program’s cornerstone funding that fuels the transformative opportunities the McGuire scholarship affords. Additional believers (benefactors) also contribute generously.

Both Wilpon and McGuire credit Dr. Frank Macchiarola as the catalyst for the scholarship’s formation. Macchiarola was

President of St. Francis from 1996 to 2008 and then Chancellor until his death in 2012.

After Macchiarola’s passing, Wilpon and McGuire worked closely with Thomas Flood, SFC Vice President of Advancement, to turn a dream of Macchiarola’s into reality.

“He envisioned the College to be an entirely scholarship-based institution, serving first-generation, immigrant, and inner-city students,” said Flood.

Wilpon’s vision for higher-education dovetails with Macchiarola’s.

“Fred’s interest is to support first-generation, immigrant, and minority students who want to go to college, and he has done a great deal in that area over the years,” said McGuire.

McGuire is quick to point out that Wilpon insisted on naming the scholarship after him, despite his initial hesitation.

“Obviously, [having a scholarship program named after you] gives you more of a commitment to make sure this program is a success. So far, it’s been a resounding success.”

Wilpon’s long-term commitment to creating pathways of opportunity to higher education was borne from the lessons of his parents and his own collegiate experience. He was a first-generation college student, something he holds dear.

“As time went on and I got a job and advanced somewhat in business, it became evident to me that one of the things I would like to do with [my wife] Judy is to see that others could have the opportunity of education,” said Wilpon.

The McGuire scholarship supplies more than financial support. The four-year program nurtures community and camaraderie among students and believers alike, with unique traditions that have emerged over the years.

Wilpon hosts McGuire scholars at a Mets home game at Citi Field in Queens at the start of each school year. That’s followed by a ceremony in November, at which upperclass McGuire Scholars present their first-year counterparts a branded jacket. The McGuires—as they’re affectionately

The McGuire Scholarship has provided me with the opportunity to belong in a community and be a part of a family that’s giving, caring, and loving.”

known—perform community service through the year. Each school-year concludes with a “family” dinner.

Danielle Francavilla ’19, a first-generation college graduate who built her journalism portfolio with undergraduate internships at MLB and local NBC and PIX11 television stations, credits the McGuire scholarship with providing a launch pad to her career.

“When somebody asks me what the McGuire Scholarship means, I always say opportunity, and I say that in every sense of the word,” said Francavilla. “It allowed me to not worry about tuition. It allowed me to have a small community of friends and really what I would consider family. It allowed me to become a better journalist and take classes to help me receive my degree on time. It allowed me to have the opportunity to do well in school and be confident in the person that I am.”

Now enrolled in the New York City Police Academy, Nicolas Cava ’19 also sees the McGuire scholarship as foundational to his professional path.

“One of the biggest opportunities it gave me was being able to attend St. Francis College,” said Cava. “It let me get my understanding of criminal justice and study criminal justice, which is going to lead to a career in law enforcement.”

The scholarship program has also touched those who

interact with McGuire scholars at St. Francis College. Anthony Desiderio ’15 (MA, Psychology) works full-time as the McGuire Scholar Coordinator.

“I get to experience what they get to experience in life because it’s not just academics: it’s emotional, it’s social, and it’s career-related,” said Desiderio. “Being able to see them pursue what they want to do and get this opportunity that not many students in New York City get is the most fulfilling thing.”

Wilpon has found deep personal satisfaction in seeing promising young scholars achieve higher education. “You’re enabling someone who would not have had the opportunities to explore different things in their lives, to do just that,” he said.

McGuire Scholars are chosen each year by a St. Francis College selection committee. To be considered, eligible students must complete an application, including a personal essay, have an 85 or above high school GPA, and a Family Adjusted Gross Income (AGI) below $125,000 (SFC Admissions Counselors help calculate AGIs).

If you are interested in joining the team with Fred, Judy, Bob, and other believers to help McGuires “step up to the plate” of opportunity, call Thomas Flood at 718-489-5361 or email at advancement@sfc.edu.

My McGuire Scholarship allowed me to achieve four years at a private school that I never thought I’d achieve in the first place.

What makes me most proud is becoming the first [college] grad in my family.”

SFC Around the World St. Francis College Students Participate in First Summer Exchange in Brazil

F

Students Travel to Havana to Take Part in College’s First Marine Biology Course Offered There

T

hirteen St. Francis College students traveled to Havana, Cuba from May 29 to June 4, 2019 to complete a spring semester Marine Biology course they took primarily online prior to that.

Kristy Biolsi, Ph.D., Chair of the Psychology Department and Kathleen Nolan, Ph.D., Chair of the Biology and Health Promotion Department, organized the Cuban portion of the course in partnership with the University of Havana’s Center of Investigations of Marine Science (CIMS). SFC is currently the only higher-education institution in New York State to have such a relationship with CIMS. Under instruction of CIMS Director Dr. Patricia Gonzalez, the students conducted research to record the biodiversity of the reef and shells found on the shore, competition among the indigenous corals, and beach usage and cleanliness. Gonzalez is a specialist in local coral and has expertise in local fish and invertebrates.

During their time there, students went on swimming excursions to picturesque pools, hikes and a snorkeling outing to the Bay of Pigs in southern Cuba, where they lived with residents of the local community in Playa Larga. The students also toured Fusterlandia, an artists’ neighborhood in Havana with mosaic tiling covering most walls and other public surfaces.

ive St. Francis College students spent two weeks in Brazil studying that country’s economics, politics, and society, as part of a first-time study-abroad summer exchange between SFC and Faculdades de Campinas (FACAMP), a university near São Paulo.

Organized by Olivia Bullio Mattos, Ph.D., Assistant Professor of Economics and FACAMP graduate, St. Francis students lived adjacent to FACAMP’s campus in Campinas from August 12 to 24, 2019. They received daily classroom instruction from FACAMP faculty members and participated in excursions—to the São Paulo central market (below), the city’s stock exchange, a brokerage house, museums, and companies—to immerse themselves in the country’s culture and witness first-hand local businesses and economics at work.

In June, six FACAMP students spent a week at SFC, pursuing a similar academic agenda with the United States as the focus. The FACAMP students’ week-long session included touring the United Nations General Assembly and Brazil’s Mission to the UN, meeting with UN official Carolina Vizcaino-Cevallos, and visiting the Brooklyn Navy Yard and Brooklyn’s Industry City, where they met with executives from Ikove Capital, the founding partner of SFC Innovate.

“The Brazil study trip is an intensive introduction to the culture, history, and economy,” said SFC student Zane Drobenko. “The opportunity to meet and learn from engaging, world-class instructors, get to know local students, and tour local historical, financial, and industrial centers provides great perspective and accelerates every student’s goals of becoming a more informed global citizen. The study trip is also a lot of fun. I am grateful to Professor Mattos and SFC for expanding my world view.”

The visit opened our students’ eyes.

They grew so much intellectually, personally, and professionally.”

Alumni Help College’s Overseas Recruitment Efforts

H

elping open doors for overseas students who want to study at their alma mater, St. Francis College alumni have been instrumental in a series of international trips for College leadership over the past year. These overseas efforts are aimed at cementing relationships with prospective students, their families, college advisors and educational institutions.

On the heels of a successful excursion last October to Trinidad and Tobago in West Indies, organized in collaboration with the Carribbean Alumni Network, an SFC contingent headed to Puerto Rico in November 2018, to connect with students there.

During its time on the island, the group visited about 10 primarily Catholic high schools, arranged by Dr. Juan F. Arratia, the Director and Principal Investigator for the Model Institutions for Excellence (MIE) project at Universidad Metropolitana in Puerto Rico.

Overseas outreach picked up again 2019, beginning with a trip to the Dominican Republic (DR) in February. DR native Manuel Medrano ’16, a St. Francis College Management major who now serves as the International Exchange Programs & Dominican Outreach Assistant for the nonprofit Global Foundation for Democracy and Development, helped organize the four-day trip that included meeting with Alejandrina German, the DR Minister of Higher Education.

St. Francis College headed to Brazil this summer, taking part in EducationUSA, a U.S. State Department-organized college fair that introduces international students to opportunities to study in the United States. Brazil-native and SFC alumna Gabriella Nobrega ’19 joined the SFC team there to speak to her fellow countrymen and women about studying at St. Francis.

A St. Francis team returned to Trinidad & Tobago and DR in fall 2019.

According to Rob Oliva ’04, Director of Recruitment, a goal of traveling overseas is “to meet with any alumni who live in these countries that can further help with our outreach and relationship building…if you have that connector, that’s a big piece to it.”

SFC’s New Forum on Migration Sheds Light on Immigration Challenges The experiences of immigrants, refugees, and asylees—and the policies and services shaping their lives—serve as the basis for the Forum on Migration (FOM), St. Francis College’s new education center that promotes immigration research and provides tools and resources for the growing numbers of immigrants and refugees in the St. Francis community and beyond.

In spring 2019, two day-long conferences with dozens of leading academics, mental-health clinicians, policy experts, and advocates officially kicked off FOM, which launched in January 2019. The first, Coming to America in the 21st Century, on March 29, shed light on often-overlooked daily challenges immigrants face and revealed treatments and programs that improve their mental health and well-being.

“We hope this event contributed to the Forum on Migration’s three key goals,” said Daniel Kaplin, Ph.D., Assistant Professor of Psychology and Co-Coordinator of the Forum and organizer of the event. “Those are to develop and showcase immigration-related scholarship, to improve the mental-health practice as it relates to immigrants’ needs, and to assemble and deploy resources that advocate for immigrants’ well-being.”

On April 25, the Forum hosted its second conference, organized by Halyna Lemekh, Ph.D., Assistant Professor of Sociology and FOM’s Co-Director. The Inaugural Conference: Global Migration brought together scholars, law and policy professionals, advocates, and immigrants.

“Immigration is one of the most charged issues facing policy makers, and the discourse around it is very often so seeped in divisive politics that it is unproductive,” said Lemekh. “Our intent is that the conference motivated meaningful scholarship, shed light on issues needing the most urgent change, and educated attendees about the resources available and work being done now to combat obstacles faced by those aiming to forge new lives across borders.”

Men’s Track & Field Student-Athlete Romario Thomas ’20 Continues Pursuit of Dream in Harvard Stem Cell Research Institute Internship Program Romario Thomas ’20

By Rob DeVita ’15, Director of Athletic Communications

In February 201 9, St. Francis College’s men’s track and field student-athlete Romario Thomas was accepted into the highly competitive Harvard Stem Cell Research Institute (HSCI) Internship Program (HIP). During summer 201 9, Thomas joined the cutting-edge stem cell science lab, fulfilling a personal dream and enhancing his knowledge and skills with handson experience.

“I can say with certainty that through the exposure to a wealth of scientific and professional knowledge, I’ve acquired such great clarity on the path that I want to pursue. This has increased my focus on conquering the challenges ahead and seizing other opportunities that may arise,” said Thomas, now in his senior year at St. Francis.

Thomas had the unique opportunity of working at the Boston’s Children’s Hospital Department of Orthopedic Research.

“I am very grateful for my mentors,” said Thomas. “The support that I’ve received working in the Craft Lab at the Boston’s Children’s Hospital Department of Orthopedic Research has been unparalleled. I’ve become a way better scientist thanks to Suyash Raj, April Craft, and the entire research team. In addition, my cohort has been extremely instrumental in fueling my burning passion for science. It’s great to be around so many other progressive young people working hard to achieve their goals. It reminds me of my purpose and makes me even more zealous.”

Conducting stem cell research is a significant challenge, and Thomas said he felt completely supported through his trials in the program.

He has been exposed to different fields of research in each class, and has learned about advancements in the area.

“My favorite part is the support system of this program. Maureen Herrmann [program

and administrative director] and her team have been so supportive to all the ‘Hipsters,’ and they’ve made it such a great experience overall,” said Thomas. “The unwavering passion that they show for the development of budding scientists deserves to be lauded.

“It has been rewarding to listen to how much is being done in the field of research, and it opens up my eyes to endless possibilities,” he continued. “I also enjoy being in Boston. I really enjoy jogging along the esplanade in the mornings.”

As an intern, Thomas developed skills inside the lab and enjoyed doing stem cell culturing. “I believe that the connections that I’ve made are the true stepping stone towards the development of my future,” he explained.

The summer also brought personal challenges for Thomas, whose his eldest brother was killed in his hometown in Jamaica, West Indies. He was given time off from the HSCI program to be with his family. His mother encouraged him to return to his internship in Cambridge to finish up strong.

“Through the support of the HSCI program, Maureen Herrmann, and April Craft, I was given time off to see my mom to refocus,” Thomas said. “She encouraged me to go back and finish strong. To this very day, I am still torn; however, I decided to press on because I’m sure that’s what he would’ve wanted. I’m finishing up this wonderful experience in his memory. I dedicate my success to him.”

Thomas spent time working on tendon development, an area that is meaningful to him because many athletes deal with tendon issues through their careers.

“I’m working on tendon development using mouse embryonic stem cells,” Thomas explained. “Treatments for [tendon] issues are not up to par because there is not enough understanding of tendon biology. I speak from experience as an athlete who has had tendinitis for over two years. Clinicians are only able to prescribe what they think is the best possible treatment.

“I’m hoping that I can get the opportunity to continue to work on tendon development post-internship because I really believe that I can actually contribute a lot to this field.”

Wealth Creation and Capital Formation

By John J. McCabe ’65

History records that the ideal time to create wealth and capital in the USA is during sustained periods of low inflation. To our nation’s benefit, inflation has been under wraps since President Reagan’s first term in office. Despite enduring five recessions since 1980, the Dow Jones Industrial Average for example, has risen from a low of 777 in 1982 to a high of over 27,000 this year. Over the last ten years our mature cyclical $20 trillion consumer dominated economy has been generating ongoing prosperity.

There is no denying the last recession the USA endured was the worst downturn since the Great Depression of the nineteen thirties. It began in December of 2007 and ended in June of 2009. As of July of this year, the ongoing decade plus healthy stretch of economic prosperity is the longest ever recorded. Since World War II, the average upturn lasted about six years.

It is most difficult to precisely forecast what will be the catalyst that kicks off a recession. Recessions are defined as at least two back to back quarters of negative GDP growth. These pullbacks typically erupt when consumers over-spend, over-borrow, over-speculate and under-save.

Hyper enthusiasm in consumer real estate was the primary cause for the most recent recession. Since WW II, the typical reversal has lasted about ten months.

It is truly hard to fathom that the United States home to just under five percent of the world’s population produces twenty four percent of world GDP. The USA has been dramatically blessed with high quotients of productive land, labor, capital, management and technology and has nurtured them well. These enormously potent resources coupled with the nation’s awesome defense capabilities accounts for Uncle Sam being the globe’s sole surviving super power.

Pundits, professors, corporate chieftains, money managers, politicians and others, often proclaim that capitalism is the ideal economic system to create both wealth and capital so that each generation can enjoy higher living standards than the previous generation. This is certainly a worthwhile goal but obviously not one achieved by all consumers and citizens all of the time. Capitalism affords much needed

economic freedom to risk-takers who will either succeed or fail. The competition generated in the entrepreneurial process however, spawns healthy upticks in efficiency and profitability. Capitalism outperforms socialism but the downside of capitalism is that its rewards are not evenly distributed throughout society.

Our economy’s foundations remain quite sturdy but are not without some deep potholes and hefty pitfalls. On the plus side among others, the USA leads the world in higher education, labor market flexibility, quality of corporate leadership, capacity to innovate, owning the lion’s share of the globe’s technology patents and, capital markets transparency. Conversely, the nation’s to do list is dangerously intensifying. Despite throwing billions of dollars at the nation’s public school systems, they continue to falter.

Our physical infrastructure demands immediate upgrading.

Moreover, even though our economy is on a solid uptick, the US federal budget continues to rise. Not to mention that the student debt bubble could cause a financial calamity.

Economics is a behavioral science as is psychology, sociology, criminology and cultural anthropology. The more knowledge amassed about individuals, groups and the cultural makeup of a specific group the higher the odds future behavior patterns can be surmised. Finance is applied economics. The more one knows about the capital markets the less difficult it is ascertain the cost of capital and the potential return on capital outlays. Investment in large measure, is nothing more than applied finance. Obviously, finance and investment are not physical sciences but are also behavioral sciences just like economics. This is what we teach our finance students.

SFC’s finance students garner the knowledge and tools it takes to perform in-depth security analysis to deduce whether or not a specific equity or fixed income investment is undervalued, overvalued or fairly valued. This analysis also helps them spot certain social, political, economic and demographic trends that could be long term in nature that might possibly benefit our nation’s capital formation and wealth creation apparatus. The reverse is also be true.

Certain negative trends that could cause the economy to suffer harm could also be discovered. One of the objectives of the lecture series is to be aware and to analyze the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats that could impact our nation’s resource base.

TERRIERS IN THE SPOTLIGHT

My mom is a St. Francis alumna, so the opportunity at St. Francis really spoke to me. I’ve had my hand in almost all areas of a college in the non-academic side of the house. I think that really prepares me for my next challenge at St. Francis and helping position the College strategically for a long, bright future.”

I’d like to grow the program…There’s a lot of technology resources here. I’d [potentially] like to see a master’s degree in nursing education with a focus on informatics. That’s the future.

There will be a lot of jobs for nursing graduates with master’s degrees who are familiar with the technology and simulation and informatics.”

Colleen Carmody Ph.D., on her goals as the new Chair of the Nursing Department, which includes two degree programs: a four-year Bachelor’s of Science in Nursing degree that qualifies students to take the RN (Registered Nurse) licensing exam upon completion; and the RN to B.S. program, in which nurses who have their RN licenses but only an Associate’s degree can take additional coursework to earn their Bachelor of Science in Nursing is one of SFC’s most popular fields of study. Last year, more than 400 undergraduates were in the program, including those enrolled in pre-nursing. Dr. Carmody served as an Air Force nurse for 17 years before transitioning to higher education full-time. She joined St. Francis College in July 2019.

Annual Dream-Maker Report A Message from Lawrence A. Marsiello ’72, Advancement Committee Chairman and Thomas F. Flood, Vice President for Advancement Heads, Hearts, Hands & Habits Through this Terrier magazine we acknowledge our BELIEVERS—you believe in our mission, us as stewards of the resources you entrust to us, and most importantly, the students we serve today and many who will walk through the doors of St. Francis for years to come. In this year of 160/50 where we Lawrence A. Marsiello ’72 celebrate 160 years of changing lives and educating lay women since 1969, we celebrate the heads, hearts, hands and habits of all who make Big Dreams possible.

Whenever you think of servant leadership these four words define it, inspire it and call others to action. The head is where thoughtful giving happens. The love you have in your heart, the love you share and genuine concern for giving a hand up to those that need it—that’s directly from the prayer of St. Francis. What we do could not happen if we did not have many hands sharing their time and talent, and going above and beyond. The habits— well, this word conjures up two distinct but related thoughts.

SFC would not be without the foundation, the presence, the spirit and the example of those who have worn Franciscan Habits since day one back in 1859. Words cannot capture the gratitude we have for our Franciscan Brothers of Brooklyn. The second thought is that it was their habits that have inspired the habits of our SFC family, those listed in this dream-maker report, who have followed an example of giving each and every day, each and every year.

Our dream-maker report offers St. Francis College’s Board of Trustees, administration, faculty and students the opportunity to recognize, celebrate and acknowledge the heads, hearts, hands and habits of those who give and live like St. Francis of Assisi. Some SFC believers listed on the following pages are direct beneficiaries and know firsthand the value of a St. Francis Thomas F. Flood College education. Others are family and friends, some serve as faculty and administration, others are parents and grandparents, and corporations and foundations— all are partners in mission who witness the good SFC is doing in the classroom, community and world.

We need the head, hearts, and hands of all in the SFC family to give selflessly, generously and to be a cheerful giver as we are called to be, with the end goal to grow the mission that the Franciscan Brothers of Brooklyn entrusted to us.

We need the heads, hearts, hands and habits of all to foster a mission that changes lives each and every day. If you don’t see your name in this dream-maker report, please join us this year and make it a habit to help us transform lives through a transformative, life-changing, Franciscan educational experience that is not reserved for students but for all who want to learn it and live it.

Let’s all be servant leaders and make the next 160 all about the daily habit of living the prayer of St. Francis for SFC and Big Dreams.

—Larry and Thomas

St. Clare Society St. Clare, undoubtedly St. Francis’ most devout follower, practiced radical self-giving and embraced joyous poverty in imitation of Christ. It is because of St. Clare’s generosity and sacrifice that SFC created the St. Clare Society to honor all those who provide for the future of the College through bequests or planned gifts including charitable trusts, retirement plan benefits, or life insurance.

The entire SFC community expresses its gratitude to the following St. Clare Society members who have demonstrated their devotion to the SFC mission and their commitment to growing its impact and legacy: Anonymous Hector Batista ’84 BT Gerard J., USMC ’55 and Alice Baxter George C. ’59 and Betty Bergleitner Anthony ’54 + and Kathleen Bertuglia Madelyn O.

Their Promise. Your Mark.

Define your Legacy by building their future!

L I was so honored to be able to participate in my first SFC graduation ceremony since 1960. The enthusiasm of the graduates and joy of family & friends was contagious.

It was especially gratifying for me to have the opportunity to meet our scholarship recipient Nicole and her delightful parents and grandmother. They have much to be proud of—Nicole is a charming young woman with a very bright future awaiting her.

Nicole’s singing of the our National Anthem at Commencement was an unexpected surprise and pleasure. She made us all feel proud to be Americans!”

Vincent J. Polito ’60, Benefactor of the Vincent J. ’60 and Janice Polito Nursing Scholarship Fund, and Nicole Madrazo ’19, recipient of the scholarship

eave your mark by establishing a scholarship that can be transformative for generations to come!

Endowed scholarships have a major impact on our students who want to receive a quality education that is affordable and accessible. By establishing your legacy you can help bridge the gap between Big Dreams and the promising futures of our scholars. 98% of our students receive financial assistance, and your gift of education can make the difference for a student returning to College next semester.
