Reply
On February 11, dozens of SUNY campuses convened at the Legislative Office Building in Albany’s Empire State Plaza to showcase their individual contributions to their communities as well as SUNY’s collective contributions. SUNY Day is an event where the public, senators, and assemblymen are all welcome to see the latest of what each SUNY campus has to offer. This year’s theme was experiential education. Generation SUNY is helping bring you a few of those stories in our SUNY DAY 2013 series. SUNY Alumnus Michael Kors Grants $1 Million for FIT Scholarship
It was announced in early December that Michael Kors was giving a $1 million gift to his alma mater, the Fashion Institute of Technology (SUNY). The purpose of the donation is to establish a scholarship for a future design student, the lifetime Michael Kors Endowed Scholarship. Although the world-renowned designer did not complete his education, he has nothing but great things to say about his experience there, “I attended FIT in the late ’70′s, and the school provided a totally comprehensive curriculum for fashion design that was unparalleled… I am committed to the school to this day.” |
