Albany – State University of New York Chancellor Nancy L. Zimpher today congratulated 23 SUNY colleges and universities on being named “military friendly” by a top-rated national military publication, G.I. Jobs Magazine.

 

“It comes as no surprise that so many SUNY colleges and universities have again made the military friendly list for 2012,” said Chancellor Zimpher. “With 64 campuses that span the higher education spectrum and offer more than 7,500 degree and certificate programs, military personnel who are transitioning from service to civilian careers are bound to find opportunity and success at SUNY, and we are pleased to welcome them as both new and returning students.”

 

 

G.I. Jobs Magazine is the premier publication for men and women who are transitioning from military to civilian life. It provides education, transition assistance, and job opportunities.

 

Making the 2012 Military Friendly Schools List from SUNY are: UAlbany; Alfred State College; Binghamton University; SUNY Brockport; Broome Community College; Buffalo State College; SUNY Canton; Clinton Community College; Columbia-Greene Community College; SUNY Delhi; Empire State College; Farmingdale State College; Hudson Valley Community College; Jamestown Community College; Jefferson Community College; Maritime College; Mohawk Valley Community College; Niagara County Community College; North Country Community College; SUNY Old Westbury; Onondaga Community College; Stony Brook University; and Ulster Community College.
