SU NEWS AND EVENTS COVERAGE

The Christian Science Monitor and the Knoxville News Sentinel featured a photo from SU Florence’s 2005 production of “Where the Wild Things Are” in an article on the passing of author Maurice Sendak.

The Huffington Post previewed the 2012 college graduation speakers, including Aaron Sorkin ’83, who will deliver the Commencement address to SU and SUNY-ESF on Sunday, May 13. The article also mentions Sorkin Week, SU’s weeklong immersion experience for VPA drama and film students to meet with professionals working in all facets of the entertainment industry.

Statistics from Syracuse University’s Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse (TRAC) are cited in Thomson Reuters, Mother Jones, Fire Dog Lake, and Denver Post articles on the deportation of immigrant criminals. Additionally, a Huffington Post story on whistleblowers; a Newsweek “Daily Beast” story on financial fraud prosecutions; and a Greenwich Time (Conn.) story on the review of Ecuadorian Sara Martinez’s deportation case also referenced TRAC data.

Yahoo reported on new collaboration between the White House and New York City’s Bloomberg administration for connecting veterans and their families to necessary services, announced on board the U.S.S. Intrepid at the Robin Hood Veterans Summit. The article noted the Institute for Veterans and Military Families (IVMF) also presented its “Leading Practices” work at the conference on Intrepid and will partner with Robin Hood, a private funder of antipoverty programs, and McKinsey & Company, a management consulting firm, to distribute the IVMF veteran-focused toolkit or employers.

A CNY Central report on Tuesday’s fund-raising breakfast for the Syracuse Ronald McDonald House notes that Syracuse University football coach Doug Marrone was the keynote speaker.
