The State University of New York Tuesday unveiled a strategic plan that calls for boosting scientific research, improving health care in the state, and expanding teacher training programs, but Chancellor Nancy Zimpher acknowledged those goals will be difficult because the state is cutting $210 million in funding to the 64 campuses.
The plan - after nearly a year of meetings across the state - directs campuses to train students for "green" jobs, conserve energy and join forces with local businesses to provide internships as well as economic development.
