Fernandez in NY

[Dolores]

Does anyone have information on the activity related to the New York system of community colleges in which President Fernandez will participate? Is there a URL of a web site where information on this activity is posted? Thank you in advance for letting us know.

Dolores,

Off the top of my head I would check the Hostos Community College website.
This is the community college school with the largest Dominican population in NY. I check but it doesn't look like they keep their website current.

I know that Leonel will be in NY December 5, as part of a presentation with the Dominican Studies Institute, here is the link to that:

This is an RSVP session so just call and ask if they can forward the info to you directly. I wouldn't want Dr. H. to chop off my head.

Best,
D

On Long Island, Leonel went to Molloy College in Rockville Centre when he was running for prez. There is a large Dominican population on LI, so I don't see why he would not go there. Try checking there.

On Sunday, 5 December, President Fernandez is scheduled for a visit to City College at 2 pm for an event organized by the Global Foundation for Development and Democracy and the CUNY Dominican Studies Institute at the City College of New York. The book, "Building Strategic Partnerships for Development: Dominican Republic-New York State" will be launched. The book is a collection of essays written by community activists, scholars and elected officials dealing with the advancement of Dominicans in New York and in the DR.
The following day, President Leonel Fernandez is scheduled to participate in a 6 December energy forum in New York City. The discussion will focus on energy policy and its effect on security, development and climate. Former President Bill Clinton will deliver the keynote address and, aside from President Leonel Fernandez, other speakers will include Senator Joe Lieberman, James Wolfensohn (the president of the World Bank), and Dr John Deutch, the former director of the CEA.
