How can the Public Higher Education Empowerment and Innovation Act help Binghamton University reach these goals?
• Allow for spending and contracting flexibility to better serve students, faculty, researchers and staff in a timely manner. • Provide access to capital to enable the University to build the infrastructure necessary to support the state’s economic development mission. • Offer the ability to lease or purchase land and facilities. • Ensure additional flexibility in setting tuition as well as the ability to retain revenue generated by tuition.
