MESSAGE FROM INTERIM PRESIDENT DAISY COCCO DE FILIPPIS
|
|
My Dear Colleagues and Students,
As I write these words, I reflect on some of my readings this weekend and some of the generous activities that have taken place at Hostos as we move forward together for the sake of learning and our own humanity.
The New York Times on Sunday, April 11, had so much to reflect on, but my heart and imagination were caught by the following two: “Watchful Volunteers Aim to Deter Hateful Attacks” and “The Love We Carry.” They are about embracing our common humanity as we reflect on the escalation of attacks on our Asian brothers and sisters in recent months. In “The Love We Carry” the fine novelist Celeste Ng reflects on love and caring embodied in the worrying about ensuring loved ones are not missing material support in her own family. It connected to me as I thought about my children’s going away to college, these days living in three different states, and the lengths to which we go to stay connected, to send packages of homemade goods and books. Love is carried out in multiple small ways, in so many gestures of kindness and support. So is the creation of young groups of watchful volunteers, aiming to deter hateful attacks on the elderly in the Asian community. This is the finest example of the love we carry, love that can and should defeat hatred. This is precisely what the world family ought to do, what the Hostos family aspires to do.
The love we carry was evident in powerful ways in the caring and very productive relationship of our faculty and students in the Honors Program this year. It was shining in the Mathematics Day execution and presentations. It was powerfully informative in the last in the series of Black at Hostos this week, and in the multiple workshops by both the Office of Academic Affairs and the SDEM division every week. It was probing and engaging in this week’s Roundtable #3 on Workforce Trends Hostos Can Lead On with members of the Hostos Community Advisory Council. It was tangible in the approval of three new members of the Hostos Community College Foundation, secured by the Chairman and other members, and the significant number of scholarship funding secured by the Division of Institutional Advancement this past week, among them the creation of the Nasry Michelen-Endowed Scholarship for Allied Health students, a relationship that has been nurtured over the years by our Associate Dean of Community Relations.
Please continue to work with your students generously to ensure the successful completion of the semester, equally important for those who are graduating and for those who are continuing their journey with us this fall. Guidance for our graduating students means providing them with supportive information to ensure their continuation of their studies or for joining the workplace, or both. Guidance for our continuing students includes early registration to ensure sound academic planning. And as always, I urge you all to vaccinate, and to encourage our students to vaccinate, an act made easier now that all of us over 16 years of age are able to do so in New York.
Mil gracias y bendiciones, Daisy
Daisy Cocco De Filippis, Ph.D.

A POEM TO HONOR RAMADAN DURING THIS PERIOD OF SPIRITUAL GROWTH |
|
Two Kinds of Intelligence
By Mewlana Jalal al-Din Rumi
There are two kinds of intelligence: one acquired,
as a child in school memorizes facts and concepts
from books and from what the teacher says,
collecting information from the traditional sciences
as well as from the new sciences.
With such intelligence you rise in the world.
You get ranked ahead or behind others
in regard to your competence in retaining
information. You stroll with this intelligence
in and out of fields of knowledge, getting always more
marks on your preserving tablets.
There is another kind of tablet, one
already completed and preserved inside you.
A spring overflowing its springbox. A freshness
in the center of the chest. This other intelligence
does not turn yellow or stagnate. It's fluid,
and it doesn't move from outside to inside
through conduits of plumbing-learning.
This second knowing is a fountainhead
from within you, moving out.
From the translations of Rumi by Coleman Barks
Jalal al-Din Rumi was born on September 30, 1207 in Balkh (Afghanistan). His father Baha' Walad was descended from the first caliph Abu Bakr and was influenced by the ideas of Ahmad Ghazali, brother of the famous philosopher. Read more here.

A MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE STUDENT GOVERNMENT ASSOCIATION BRIAN CARTER |
|
Good Morning! Hello to all students, faculty and staff of Hostos Community College. As we all are joined in another engagement of my weekly address, I am here to continue to uplift the spirits of our beloved Community of Hostos which has been under much added duress during the most significant and challenging semester that we all could ever imagine. Throughout the calendar year I have continued to impact our student body with information in the form of positivity which involved the Counseling Center in various workshops to keep our students engaged, such as our current series entitled “Let’s talk about it” with Tovah Thompson and Michael Martínez to give students some sense of normalcy. This is an extension of our previous series entitled Candid Conversations which are held in a safe space environment. Our latest event highlighted Sex and Respect, addressing topics including sexual hygiene and protection, communication and consent, societal norms and issues and sexual relationships. We have been providing a safe space environment to open the dialogue for the female and male perspectives on these topics of discussion which are held every Tuesday from 3:00 to 4:30 pm. These venues are to support mental health and create a forum for therapy to provide encouragement and enlightenment for students, faculty, and staff.
Due to the current climate that we are experiencing, we will be including a series of additional workshops about racism as you have all been witnessing in the latest casualty of color, Daunte Wright. We will have a forum which will allow students an opportunity to vent in a safe space provided by the Counseling Center, which we gladly appreciate. They continue to provide us this platform in the form of love as opposed to the agenda that promotes hate. How many more have to be made an example of? Do they really see color or are they just culturally blind? How do you feel intimidated by the mere sight of my people that forces you to act on impulse improv’ing a violent act? Why must we continue to feel like the hunted in this world of predators? These constant questions that are continually segued into internal excuses that must be addressed even within our own race. When finances are involved, it leads me to believe some people’s common sense can be bought financially. Integrity is not an option; it is not a choice on the stock market, therefore being a person of color is definitely the most significant outfit that we can continue to wear with pride. Hold your head up high my people, we will continue to rise no matter what the agenda might be considering the present. For there will be clearer days amidst the haze. 2020 is a vision of perfection, but Black Excellence is the standard and no longer is an option.

Fall 2021 Planning
On April 5, 2021, the class schedule was opened to our continuing students for Fall 2021 registration. All course sections listed in CUNYfirst indicate whether the class will be taught through online, hybrid (traditional hybrid or hyflex), or in-person sessions.
We want our continuing students to know now what their options are for the fall, and give them ample time to plan. We also hope that opening registration for continuing students will help us better gauge demand for in-person courses as we begin Fall 2021 recruitment for freshmen, transfer students, and readmitted students.

MIDDLE STATES SELF-STUDY UPDATE |
|
Submitted by MSCHE Steering Committee Co-Chairs Professor Kate S. Wolfe and Professor Nelson Nuñez-Rodríguez
An Aspirational Opportunity for the Institution beyond Compliance
The Middle States Accreditation Self-Study defines itself as a compliance exercise. It also opens an opportunity for improvement, innovation and aspiration. The conceptual artist Agnes Denes creates space for seeing reality and still being able to dream in her work “A Manifesto” (Denes, 1970). The accreditation process embodies an aspirational exercise as the institution intentionally evaluates evidence, invigorates ways of operating and refines its ability to make evidence-based decisions. All of these open the question, How can we sustain this massive effort beyond the self-study period while dissecting lessons learned from the remote instruction scenarios?
The current assessment efforts undertaken by the Institutional Effectiveness Committee (IEC), the Office of Institutional Effectiveness, Research and Assessment (OIERA), the Academic Assessment Task Force (AATF), the General Education Task Force (GETF) and the Administrative, and Educational Support (AES) Assessment Committee (AESAC) solidify the institution’s ability to sustain evaluation and evidence-based decision processes beyond the self-study period. Together, these practices create a culture of inquiry that can fructify in dissimilar ways in our divisions. The academic departments have a history of creating inquiry groups. Moving forward, the academic side of the house could recreate this process, exercising faculty intellectual diversity. This practice might help to sustain current efforts to document student learning and, subsequently, apply analyses to improve it. As the accreditation practice provides tools to understand the depth and breadth of our daily operations, the student support areas can also capitalize on current self-study efforts to solidify processes in support of students’ academic journey.
Agnes Denes’s Manifesto invites us to embrace that we will always work on paradox, defining the elusive, visualizing the invisible and communicating the incommunicable (Denes, 1970). Altogether, this could summarize the self-study work. The college members have refined their understanding on what represents an evidence piece supporting our efforts, and what it is the best way to evaluate it. In this regard, the pandemic taught us to see new ways of operating while preserving academic continuity and integrity. Denes’s Manifesto suggests finding new concepts and recognizing new patterns, which the self-study outcomes represent as a whole. Looking into the future, the institution imagines a return to a physical campus by capitalizing on lessons learned from remote instruction scenarios. In this regard, the self-study creates an intellectual community that should remain engaged beyond the compliance exercise, continuing its work of questioning, reasoning, analyzing, dissecting and re-examining as Denes defines by working on a paradox. Unquestionably, the legacy of the self-study illuminates the complexity of higher education settings today while creating a springboard to strengthen our daily efforts supporting students.

INSTITUTIONAL EFFECTIVENESS |
|
Submitted for OIERA by Associate Director of Institutional Research and Assessment Dereck Norville-Bowie
Introducing Hostos’ Institutional Advisement Outcomes (IAOs)
An important institutional goal for this academic year was the development of college-wide Student Learning Outcomes (SLOs) and Student Support Outcomes (SSOs) for advisement units. This goal was a broadly identified theme in last year’s college-wide operational plan survey, was supported by the President’s Cabinet, and was informed by national best practices.
Toward this goal, the co-chairs of the AES Assessment Committee (AESAC), Dean Babette Audant and Dereck Norville-Bowie, worked with the college’s assessment consultant (Meredith Reitman) and the leadership of the college’s Cross-Divisional Advisement Committee (CDAC - Deans Ann Mester and Leslie King) to begin crafting a plan to collaboratively develop a common set of SLOs and SSOs for advisement units. The process began in Fall 2020 with a structured workshop attended by CDAC membership as well as advisers from the college’s primary advisement units, to ensure accurate representation and broad perspective in the initial drafting phase. The initial list of draft SLOs and SSOs went through two refinement phases (the second involving the original workshop group) before being finalized.
The final set of outcomes are now called Institutional Advisement Outcomes (IAOs) and are SLOs that represent the learning that students can expect to gain from engaging in advisement services, regardless of which advisement unit they interact with. Hostos’ newly developed IAOs are below:
In order to persist academically and graduate in good academic standing, students will be able to:
-
SLO1: Navigate Hostos’ administrative and academic policies and processes.
-
SLO2: Act upon wellness and academic support referrals made by advisors.
-
SLO3: Identify their self-efficacy and know when help is needed and where/how to seek it.
-
SLO4: Use communication, technological, time-management, and study skills to support academic success.
-
SLO5: Identify and connect their personal goals and strengths to their academic choices and career goals.
This year, advisement units (with support from AESAC) will all be assessing the first IAO: Navigate Hostos’ administrative and academic policies and processes. The IAOs, which are another key piece in strengthening the assessment infrastructure at Hostos, will provide:
- The structure and opportunity to speak to advisement as a college-wide service with clearly defined learning and skill-building outcomes.
- The ability to share ideas, learning, and best practices across advisement units (i.e. having common IAOs provides AES units a shared lens by which to map efforts against a common IAO and share that across units).
Having these IAOs is an important step in Hostos’ assessment journey and one that very few other CUNY schools have undertaken, putting us ahead of the curve!

COACHE Survey Summary Update
CUNY Central made it possible for the Hostos full-time faculty to participate in a second collaborative on academic careers in higher education, COACHE, survey designed by Harvard University School of Education. After completing the survey, CUNY Central released the results to the participating campuses. The Office of Academic Affairs discussed the results as soon as they came out with the OAA Executive Team and the Academic Council (department chairpersons). Afterwards, the survey results were sent to all faculty for review.
The Office of Academic Affairs hosted two open meetings on September 3, 2019 and October 30, 2019 which focused on understanding and interpreting the results of the survey. The results shared Hostos-specific responses and compared Hostos responses to other CUNY institution responses. The data set also compared Hostos with peers at, both, union and non-union schools from around the country.
The issue that rose to the top as the highest concern was gender disparity, particularly for women of color, among faculty promoted from associate to full professor; therefore, promotion to full professor was identified as a priority. In response,
- Acting Provost and Vice President, Dr. Charles Drago identified Professor Jacqueline DiSanto and Professor Gregory Marks, both of whom were recently promoted to full professor, to create and offer a workshop for associate faculty who want to be promoted to full professor. The workshop curriculum was designed in Fall 2020 and offered twice in Spring 2021: March 22 and April 13, 2021.
- Further, Provost Drago celebrates promotions from associate to full professor publicly. With that celebration, faculty bios are shared with the broader campus community to congratulate the newly promoted faculty members and raise awareness among other faculty regarding the progress of their peers.
- Center for Teaching and Learning through New Faculty Orientation emphasizes the power of career planning in relationship to how and when to provide service within the department and the college, and when and how to plan for publishing, along with balancing their contractual teaching responsibilities - all of which are required for tenure-track faculty to be reappointed, be granted tenure, and/or be promoted.
- Moreover, academic department leaders, now, are beginning conversations about clarifying the CUNY policy for promotion at Hostos.
