Albany Senior Peter Hooley Embracing His Final Season

Are those awards for second place?

The Danes won’t be able to replace Lyle Thompson on attack. Still, Albany’s offensive depth is still impressive, and the team knows how to play coach Scott Marr’s system.

Right now, sophomore midfielder Kyle McClancy is running through X on attack, as he was in fall practice, working with Connor Fields, Bennett Drake and Justin Reh. Attackman Seth Oakes, who started last season on the offense, is not with the team this fall, otherwise he would be the logical person playing behind. After a slow start against Richmond, the group connected on several goals with quick time passing to give them the go-ahead.

In the fourth quarter — with the sun setting over the bleachers behind them, and the daylong Colleluori Classic event ending in Baltimore — Kyle Marr found himself standing at the midline near the substitution box. His dad saw a familiar lefty attackman being guarded by walk-on defenseman Brendan Chattuck, who made the Great Danes roster this fall.

"Take him," Scott Marr yelled in jest to Chattuck, loud enough so that Kyle Marr could hear him. "Their team's got nothing."

Dear Colleagues,

As you know, earlier this year I directed my Executive Team to implement a Compact Budget process to aid us in making more strategic investment decisions across all divisions of the University. Today I am pleased to announce the successful completion of the University’s pilot Compact Budget process for the 2016-17 fiscal year.

This new methodology for resource allocation cultivates more strategic, collaborative, transparent, and sustainable budgeting. The approach supports our goal of advancing the University at Albany to the status of a world-class public research university—a goal that requires strategic alignment between our resources and our priorities. As part of that alignment, all funded projects will be evaluated on a quarterly basis to track the impact and effectiveness of our investments.

The pilot process produced 280 proposals from across the University. In consultation with the Compact Team, I selected 52 projects for funding, an investment of $5.1 million in base (recurring) allocations and $3.7 million in one-time allocations to be implemented in the 2016-17 fiscal year. Throughout this process, academic and administrative leaders found new ways to collaborate, and in many cases were able to join forces on existing proposals, or to develop new ideas together.

The funded projects represent a wide range of divisions, all targeted to priority areas, including:

• Expanding the University’s academic footprint through investments in the new College of Engineering and Applied Sciences, faculty hires, and expanded program offerings.

• Growing our enrollments through recruitment, retention and enhancements to the student experience.

• Building our research portfolio, including continuation of the Presidential Initiatives Fund for Research and Scholarship, which seeds transformative research across all disciplines.

To learn more about the Compact Budget process and to view the complete list of funded projects for 2016-17, please log on to MyUAlbany and click on the Financial tab.

I’d like to recognize and thank the Compact Team, my Executive Committee, the Council of Deans, and faculty leaders for their deep engagement in this transformative process. This new level of collaboration and planning is truly accelerating the University at Albany's movement toward the next level of excellence.

Sincerely,

Robert J. Jones

President

Albany Law School Stadium!

Good info. Some interesting tidbits:

Face-off specialist Cason Liles (109 of 218, 50%) has transferred.

Seth Oakes (54G, 12A) has not been with the team this fall. Marr is hopeful he will be back in the spring.

Albany has added Maryland to its 2016 schedule; the mid-March game will be played in College Park. That game will be a big boost to Albany’s strength of schedule, essentially making up for the loss of the Hopkins game a few yeas back. The Danes will open at Syracuse.

Not a bank

Not TrustCo or mild wallys.

Affiliation and partnership strongest words used. Although Senator Farley did say he believed better things were coming. A current Albany Law student graduating next year did ask how this affiliation would be reflected on their diploma........nothing would change still Albany Law School, Union University. Union university partnership would continue.

Just go this:

To the University at Albany Community:
