I’m excited to share with you SUNY’s enthusiastic support for the 2019 New York Business Plan Competition (NYBPC).
Now in its 10th year, and established to encourage innovation and entrepreneurship at New York’s colleges and universities, the NYBPC is
the nation’s largest student collegiate business plan competition. The
event draws more than 500 participants comprised of entrepreneurs and
student teams from more than 100 colleges and universities. Over 100 new
businesses have been started and more than
$20 million in venture investments have been stimulated by the NYBPC.
Applications
are now being accepted from student teams invited to compete within one
of 10 NYBPC Regional Competitions in New York State. Regional finalists
from
each of several tracks advance to the statewide finals which will take
place on April 26th, at
the Sage College Armory, in Albany. At the finals, students
compete for prize money and recognition, and connect with mentors and potential employers and partners.
Last
year student teams from SUNY campuses took home eight of the 18 cash
prizes totaling $59,000 – including the $20,000 grand prize. The 2019
competition presents another
opportunity for SUNY ingenuity and entrepreneurship to shine.
Student achievement is a point of pride and focus at SUNY. The
NYBPC is a key catalyst for the advancement of entrepreneurship and provides a forum to put on full display the scope, scale, diversity, and spirit
of SUNY innovation.
Being
part of a competition can have a profound impact on a student’s life
and career. For me, the 1975 International Science and Engineering Fair
as a high school student
sparked my lifelong interest and passion in the sciences. It also gave
me the confidence to pursue a degree in science and engineering at
Stanford University at a time when few women were in those fields.

“The Long Trail Out, a 25-minute documentary
film, appeals to a wide and diverse audience, it works across
generations and has the capacity to change minds and opinions as it
takes the viewer on a very personal journey of coming out.
The struggles faced during a life of hiding, the decision to come out
and the physical challenges faced while climbing mountains make for a
powerful and compelling story. The film’s message will educate both
young and old, gay and straight, on the importance
of being proud of who you are.”
The screening will be followed by remarks from the
documentary subject and East Aurora native Tim Buchanan and Shai
Ben-Dor, the filmmaker and director. The program will conclude with a
coming out panel of students, faculty and staff,
and a reception in the Center for the Arts Atrium.
The event is open to the community and is
co-sponsored by the Intercultural and Diversity Center and the Office of
Inclusive Excellence.

UB Linguistics Department internship (LIN 496) Would you like to earn UB credit, gain valuable teaching experience, and make a contribution to your community at the same time?
The Department of Linguistics at the University at Buffalo is offering a Teaching Internship for the Fall 2019 semester, which places UB undergraduate students in the Buffalo Public Schools as a teacher’s aide or tutor, to work with children on developing their language and literacy skills.
This internship is open to students from any major and grade level who are native or near-native speakers of English and have at least a 2.0 GPA. For three credits, interns work 112 hours over the course of the semester (about 8-10 hours per week), in a classroom or tutoring room in one of the public schools. Interns can be placed in an early childhood school, an elementary school, a middle school, or a high school; the children in the schools include Spanish-English bilinguals, international students, and English-speaking urban students.
There are also a very few slots for interns to work with school psychologists, guidance counselors, and social workers. (CDS majors interested in working with an SLP should contact their own department first to inquire about their internship program.)
To find out more about the Linguistics Department internship, or to request an application, please stop by Dr. David Fertig’s office, 638 Baldy Hall (Spring 2019 office hours: Monday and Friday, 10:30–11:30 a.m.) or e-mail him at: fertig@buffalo.edu, with a cc to Graduate Teaching Assistant Megan Hutto <meganhut@buffalo.edu>. (Please include “LIN 496 Internship” in the subject line of your e-mail.)

There won’t be a test on the material, but you will be expected to participate and to offer your opinion concerning the classroom activities.
