BN360 Call to Action!
Public Higher Education Empowerment and Innovation Act
We have a tremendous opportunity here in Buffalo Niagara to move forward an initiative that will bring tens of thousands of jobs, public and private sector investment to downtown Buffalo, and an economic impact of over $2.6 billion. Gov. David A. Paterson's 2010 Executive Budget includes significant reforms (at no cost to the state) that would give SUNY - and the University at Buffalo - the financial flexibility to play a major role in the state's economic resurgence and support UB 2020 as a basis for economic transformation here in WNY.  Please education yourself on this important piece of legislation and encourage your legislators to vote for it TODAY.  Check out the BN360 website for more info.
