I think they’re doing themselves a disservice by referring to Binghamton as a “premier public Ivy.” If I were an alumna/i I’d contact the administration to object to the phrase. There’s nothing wrong with being a premier public university in their own right. They should own it.
I do like the center though. I don’t remember hearing any news of its planning, construction, or opening, and I have children in the SUNY system. I hope their publicity campaign is just starting. It deserves some attention.
