I do so as a way of giving thanks for the wonderful education I received at BC, nearly 60 years ago, without tuition which enabled a poor kid from the Bronx to end up as a professor of psychology at Stanford University, and also as president of the American Psychological Association.” —Philip Zimbardo ’54 Brooklyn College Foundation Brooklyn College Foundation New Latino Visions Award 16 Juan Bautista Rodriquez Scholarship Hy Sardy Economics Prize* 17 Student Internships O ver the years, the importance of internships has continued to increase. Not only do students with internship experience receive, on average, a 20% higher starting salary, but internships are also directly linked to hiring and corporate recruitment. Despite the growing importance of internships, 50% of internships are unpaid. This means that Brooklyn College students simply cannot afford participate in these internships without a stipend. To address this issue, many alumni and friends have made restricted donations to the Brooklyn College Foundation to finance internship stipends for students participating in low-paying or nonpaying internships. The following internship funds enable deserving Brooklyn College students to attain critical work experience that will leverage their education and lay the groundwork for future employment and success: BCF General Internships Awarded to BC students participating in un-paid or low-paying internships. Don Buchwald ’59 Internship Awarded to students in the department of theater and the department of television and radio who have secured internships relevant to their areas of study Stephanie Bunch Stephanie DeJohn Melissa Diaz Gina DiRado Kim Furano Leta Hirschmann-Levy Sueng Kyu Shin Charina Nadura Clifford ’48 and Frances Friedman Summer Internship Awarded to journalism or english majors who have obtained low or unpaid summer internships Nicole Casamento Vanessa Walker Jules Glaser ’45 and Barbara Glaser Internship Health Care Internship at Brooklyn College* Awarded to minority undergraduate students in the health sciences who are participating in hospital-based work/study internships and supervised by faculty at the State of New YorkHealth Sciences Center at Brooklyn (SUNY-HSCB) Thelma ’54 and Myron ’52 Kandel Internship Awarded to students accepted into unpaid or low paying internship programs Christi Singh Awarded to students participating in internships in computer and information science or related fields. Preference is given to women who are seniors or are pursuing a master’s degree in computer and information science Awarded to students participating in low or unpaid internships Karen Aragon Awarded to students working on a summer research/internship project on recycling with an eye toward developing an on-campus food waste recycling project “The work I will be doing over the summer is fundamental to my growth as a student and as an aspiring writer. I would not have been able to participate in (this internship) over the summer break without the Clifford and Frances Friedman Summer Internship stipend and I am confident that this will be a pivotal experience for my future career prospects…I am grateful and extremely humbled to be the recipient of this year’s award.” Samantha Woolhiser Renee Brigitte Robert J.

At first, I was concerned that I would not be able to afford to participate in an unpaid internship, but thanks to the generous financial support [through the Robert J. Sisti Memorial Internship fund], I was able to accept my very first internship at the New York City Department of Finance, where I will be working in the Tax Policy and Planning Division…It is my hope that one day I will be able to assist others in reaching their career goals as this award has done for me.” —Shani Abrahams ’14, 2013 recipient of Renee Guilbeau Helemhe Kassem Brooklyn College Foundation Leonard ’50 and Claire ’52 Tow Internship Sierra Club Internship Program Awarded annually to BC students participating in unpaid internships 18 Maureen ’78 and Robert O’Hara Summer Internship 19 Study Abroad and Research Fellowships I ncorporating study abroad and research experiences into a college education helps students earn credit toward their degree, strengthens their professional résumé, improves their foreign language skills, and broadens their perspective on the world. Faculty who pursue research and scholarship overseas bring these experiences back to the classroom. In an effort to expand and deepen international educational and research opportunities, and to make them more available to those in financial need, generous alumni and friends have established the following funds to provide Brooklyn College students and faculty with the necessary support to study and perform research outside of Brooklyn College and, in many cases, abroad: David Davidson Memorial Undergraduate Chemistry Fellowship Awarded to junior and/or senior students for summer research Naomi Grace Isaac Noushad Mohd Angelina Radionova Roy L.

Working under the mentorship of renowned faculty, and alongside accomplished investigators, has allowed me to expand on and enhance my research skills, teaching me priceless lessons that I will carry well into my future as a scientist.” —Mustafa Ghanem ’13, 2013 recipient of the Stacey Garil Womack Memorial Internship for Cancer Research Arnold ’59 and Ruth Kaufman Chemistry Research Fellowship Awarded to students for chemistry research completed under the guidance of a department mentor Lea Kenigsberg Christoph M.

Working with the actors, I will create tableaus of the moments leading up to when the photos were taken, the photos themselves, and the imagined moments after the images were taken. The performances will be documented both in video and in final realization as a photography instillation.

Dershowitz ’59 Project 27 How You Can Support Brooklyn College The Brooklyn College Foundation relies on the generosity of individuals, foundations, and corporations to help further the college’s mission of providing highquality, affordable education to our students. There are many ways that donors can support our work. The Annual Fund Gifts to the annual fund provide critical unrestricted operating supports making it possible for the foundation to respond to the immediate and evolving needs of Brooklyn College. Common uses of annual fund dollars include student scholarships, internship stipends and travel abroad support, funding for faculty research, as well as school improvements. Unrestricted annual fund gifts are essential and benefit more than 16,000 students each year. 28 The Boylan Society is the Brooklyn College Foundation’s monthly giving program. When you join the Boylan Society, you authorize the foundation to receive a monthly tax-deductible gift from your checking account or by credit card. This is a wonderful opportunity to provide dependable, enduring, and reliable support to your alma mater. You will no longer need to be concerned with renewal payments or reminder mailings. And since automatic monthly gifts do not require outreach efforts to secure, they are the most efficient way to sustain the level of academic excellence at Brooklyn College. The Brooklyn College Foundation works with faculty and college leadership to identify, build and steward relationships with corporations and foundations to ensure long-term and mutually beneficial partnerships. We aim to understand the needs of corporations and foundations and connect them with appropriate solutions at Brooklyn College. With a world-class faculty, a diverse and talented student body and strong academic and co-curricular programs, Brooklyn College offers significant investment opportunities. Establishing a Restricted Fund A restricted fund helps to meet the needs of Brooklyn College and our students while reflecting the specific interests or desires of a donor. Restricted funds may support student scholarships, awards and travel stipends, as well as faculty research and endowed professorships. Establishing and naming a restricted fund can be a special way to honor or memorialize a loved one’s interests or accomplishments, honor a former student and/or faculty member or encourage students in a particular academic area. The Brooklyn College Foundation welcomes donations to establish and name new restricted funds, as well as donations of any size in support of already existing restricted funds. Naming Opportunities It is now easier than ever to make a donation to Brooklyn College. Just log on to the Brooklyn College Foundation website, www.brooklyncollegefoundation.org, and use our secure connection to make a tax-deductible gift with your credit or debit card with a MasterCard, American Express, Visa, or Discover logo. We also accept automatic fund transfers from your checking or savings account. Brooklyn College offers a wide spectrum of naming opportunities. Individuals or groups of donors may select from a menu of naming options ranging from commemorative bricks in front of our new West Quad Center, to benches near our beloved lily pond, to classrooms or lecture halls around campus. These are very special opportunities to leave behind a legacy at the college while contributing to the success of future Brooklyn College students. The Legacy Society: Planned Gifts Members of the Legacy Society share our vision of academic excellence for future generations by making a provision for the college in their estate planning. The Brooklyn College Foundation offers several futureoriented investment opportunities, including charitable gift annuities, charitable remainder trusts or life insurance. Legacy Society members may also make planned gifts in the form of a bequest. Matching Gifts: Double the Impact of Your Donation If your company matches employee contributions to higher education, you may be able to seek a match for your gift to the Brooklyn College Foundation. In order to find out if your company provides matching gifts please visit our online matching gift search engine on the donate page of the foundations website for further instructions or check with www.brooklyncollegefoundation.org. Your human resources office can provide specific instructions about how to seek a company matching gift. Tributes and Memorials The Brooklyn College Foundation Tribute and Memorial Program was created in response to alumni requests as a means to offer special recognition to those who have made a difference in their lives. A donation to the Tribute and Memorial Program gives you the opportunity to honor a loved one, friend, business associate or caregiver. Gifts have been made to commemorate special occasions, including birthdays, anniversaries or retirement. The program is a meaningful way to express feelings of remembrance or gratitude.
