College launches new web site and portal Schenectady County Community College launched a new web site last week to complement the College’s new portal, which hit on Sept. 1. The web site, at www.sunysccc.edu, and MySCCC portal, which is linked prominently to the new home page, help modernize the College’s recruitment and retention efforts while branding the College as a first-choice destination for the Capital Region’s college-bound population. The web site redesign was led by SCCC’s Communications Office working directly with In10sity, a New York-based marketing firm. The MySCCC portal was launched by Information Technology and Communications offices working collaboratively with Cleveland-based Campus EAI, whose MyCampus software is used by scores of colleges nationwide. Earlier this year, it was announced that SCCC received a grant valued at over $1M to fund the portal for the next five years. “The new web site and portal are the result of a demand by students for more modern communications efforts to enhance learning and the college experience,” said Dr. Quintin Bullock, President of SCCC. “These efforts will help us better reach our various constituencies and allow us greater efficiencies and savings over time. We are very pleased to have these new platforms to offer the SCCC community and prospective students and to show off Schenectady County Community College as one of the state’s premier campuses.”

Slow Food at SCCC Hello everyone and welcome to another semester at SCCC. My name is Kate Millem. I am part of the SCCC Slow Food Student Chapter.

SGA Vice President Anthony Galea and President Deryle McCann in the SGA Office.

Meet your SGA Officers Deryle McCann, Chemical Dependency Counseling and Human Services major, was elected by the student body last year to serve as President of the Student Government Association for 2011-2012. The SGA is the voice of the students at SCCC. Deryle encourages all students to visit her and the other SGA officers in Elston Hall 220H or SGA senators in the Student Lounge during College Hours (Monday and Wednesday from 11:20 a.m. to 12:20 p.m.). “We want to hear from our students. If they have any questions, comments or suggestions, we would love to discuss those with them,” Deryle said. “Let’s hope this year will be a productive year for all students in achieving and accomplishing their goals.” Other SGA officers are: Vice President-Anthony J. Galea Jr.; Treasurer-Derrick Tusang; Student Trustee-Erin Pelkey Senior Senators-Matthan Bird, James Didonna, Sheri Fox, Noney Grier, Thearse McCalmon, Erin Pelkey, Noah Robinson and Ron Sudermann

Our club is all about good, clean and fair food. Good meaning food that tastes good; clean meaning food that was not treated with pesticides, hormones, and antibiotics; fair meaning that the people who harvested the food were treated and paid fairly and that the livestock was also treated fairly. We support sustainable farming and have raised money for the Thousand Gardens campaign in Africa. If you’re interested in joining our group, look for more slow food information around campus. You do NOT have to be a Culinary Arts student to join. Enjoy this month’s recipe--Stuffed Peppers Ingredients 4 to 6 large red or green peppers, small diced 16 oz. jar of tomato sauce (I try to get this as plain as possible) 2 cups of rice onion 2 cloves of garlic, minced 1 pound of ground meat (I use a mixture of pork, veal, and beef, but you can use ground turkey as well) Salt, black pepper, and cayenne all to taste 1-2 hot peppers Cook the rice as per package directions. Cool and reserve. Sauté onion, garlic, and hot peppers until onions are translucent. Then, cook the meat along with the onions and garlic. Drain the meat when finished cooking. Mix the tomato sauce and the ground meat mixture. Add salt, black pepper, and cayenne to taste (you can add garlic powder here as well if you do not have cloves of garlic). Take your peppers and cut off the tops. Clean them well and make sure there are no seeds in the inside of the pepper. Then, stuff your meat and vegetable mixture in the peppers.

Riding the bus David Kilpatrick, Culinary Arts major, swipes his student ID card on a CDTA bus. SCCC students who have paid the student activity fee and are enrolled at SCCC have access to CDTA public transportation for 2011-2012. SCCC students can ride CDTA anytime, anywhere, any day of the week by swiping their SCCC student ID card. Save money on gas, reduce your carbon footprint and relax while riding CDTA. “This will definitely save me a lot of money going back and forth to school and to work,” David said.

Put the now stuffed peppers in a deep baking dish (like a casserole dish) and place in an oven at 350 degrees for 45 to 60 minutes until the pepper is soft. During the last five minutes you can sprinkle some cheese on top if you like. The stuffed pepper can be served all by itself. The best part about this recipe is you can add your own ingredients to truly make it yours. If you are a vegetarian you can take out the ground meat and add more rice or black beans. It’s a great meal and there is no such thing as unwanted left overs…if there are any. BINNEKILL, September 21, 2011

College Store News by Chris Henry, Manager The College Store has been welcoming students for over a month now getting ready for classes to begin. As usual we’re packed to the rafters (literally) with all your back to school needs. Whether it’s your first time with us or you’re returning for your next semester, you’ll know (or will get to know) we are here for all of your course material needs. If your instructor has chosen it for your course, we have it and this year we are actually going to give you some choices that will help make your life easier. When you enter the store you’ll be greeted by our customer service team who will help you figure out where you need to be and what you need to have. The team will assist you with printing schedules necessary for textbook selection, checking student accounts to make sure your funds are ready and directing you through the bookstore maze to get what you need quickly. The customer service team is proudly led by Sebastian Ranalli, our new Assistant Manager and Customer Service Supervisor. You can find Sebastian in the new Customer Service Desk located directly in the front entrance of the store. Once you’re ready to get your course materials there are a couple of new choices we have for you. As always you will have your choice of new and used textbooks but we have greatly expanded two new categories as well. Textbook rentals Textbook rentals are sweeping the nation and the College Store has answered the call. Students choosing to rent a

textbook will save 50 percent off the cost of either purchasing a new or used textbook. A list of currently available rentals is displayed not only on the College Store website, but also is displayed throughout the campus. A college student ID is required for textbook rental. Rentals are due back by Dec. 23, 2011. Students who do not return a rental on time will be charged the remaining balance for the rental as well as a late fee, so remember to get your rentals back on time.

your phone, where you can “check in.” It keeps track of how many times you visit and lets the store know you’ve been there. For those of you who like a daily snack you might end up becoming “mayor” of the College Store, which gives you a 10 percent discount on most purchases. More than just books... As you know, the College Store sells more than just text books. We have food, drinks, school supplies, study guides, clothing, pharmacy items, cookbooks and we are always trying to bring in what our students request. This a way to reward some of our regulars and those of you keeping an eye on our Facebook/Twitter for flash sales and giveaways. New Merchandise The College Store has expanded into new categories this year. In addition to our usual collections of hoodies, sweats, gifts and supplies, we have a few new surprises.

EBooks The College Store is on the cutting edge of bringing our students the latest improvements when it comes to book buying power. A currently expanding EBook section is just the latest addition to the store. Over 30 titles are available. EBooks are currently available for PC and Mac with Ereader. Kindle and Nook editions are coming in the future. Accessing your EBooks is incredibly easy. After the EBook is purchased, log on to the website provided on the card and simply enter both the card number as well as the receipt number when prompted. You will then be required to download a free program that acts as an online bookcase, from which you pull up their textbook. Once complete, the student will be able to not only view the EBook, but also make use of such features as notetaking, highlighting and using the search function. Follow us Be sure to follow us on Twitter and Facebook for up-to-the-minute news and updates.

First, we’re excited to announce a partnership with our food service provider Prestige Food Services. Purchase a special black and white travel mug from the College Store for $9.95 and receive a special fill up price from Prestige for just $2. This is a savings of 20 cents a cup and is good for the environment. Also, the College Store will offer a special collection of faculty, staff and alumni gifts including a special selection of royal blue and gold jewelry by Deluke Designs, framed artwork of local landmarks and original art featured in Rythms, the College’s literary magazine. Just a few other things to keep an eye out for: gift cards purchased online that can also be used online on the College Store Website and EZ passes for the Thruway.

Vladia Boniewski ‘71 holds a sign from the College’s first Commencement, which was held at the Union College chapel in 1971.

Development leader retires Vladia Boniewski ’71 was in Elston Hall for the first time in 1969, the year that the College opened its doors to students. “We used to jokingly say ‘see you around’ campus to one another,” Vladia said, noting that back then Elston Hall was the only building on campus. She was a member of the first graduating class in 1971, went on to earn bachelor’s and master’s degrees and then returned to SCCC in 1980 as the College’s first Assistant Director of Admissions. She retired this month after over 30 years as a tireless advocate for the College.

the SCCC’s Foundation’s assets from $116,000 in 1989 to $4.2 million in 2010. Among her many accomplishments was the successful Campaign for Culinary Excellence, which raised $329,000 to help complete the College’s capital project to expand the number of culinary laboratories and instructional space in Elston Hall.

After serving as Assistant Director and then Director of Admissions, Vladia next served as Assistant to the President for Public Relations and Institutional Advancement. In addition to public relations, she also began developing fundraising activities, annual fund appeals and special events.

She looks forward to her retirement saying, “As a proud member of the first graduating class, it has been a joy and a labor of love to work at the College for 31 years. I look forward to keeping in touch and seeing everyone at campus events.”

During the mid-1990s, Vladia developed and organized the College’s first Major Gifts Campaign. Under her leadership, the campaign raised $1.7 million for scholarships and special projects on campus. She also developed a new event on campus, Food for Thought and All That Jazz, an annual gala, now in its 20th year, which showcases the music and culinary arts programs. The number of donors to the College grew from 71 in 1995 to 736 in 2010 under Vladia’s leadership as Director of Development and then Executive Director of the SCCC Foundation. She was responsible for growing

As a member of numerous College committees, community groups and professional organizations, Vladia’s graceful presence has contributed to the success of SCCC.

She added, “The first day of classes, Honors Convocation and Commencement have always been my favorite days at SCCC. Watching students develop their confidence and skills and achieve their educational goals has been so rewarding. Helping students through working with wonderful donors to create scholarships is incredibly satisfying. We change lives-what could be better? I’m grateful for all of the wonderful faculty, staff, and Foundation and Trustee Board members I’ve worked with over the years.”

SCCC Board of Trustees meeting dates for 2011-2012 SCCC has announced meeting dates for the SCCC Board of Trustees. Board Meetings begin at 5:30 p.m. in the Lally Mohawk Room, Elston Hall, on the following dates: Monday, September 19, 2011 Monday, October 17, 2011 Monday, November 21, 2011
