Michelle Cuozzo Borisenok ’80 House to be Dedicated November 1
The Michelle Cuozzo Borisenok ’80 House at The College of Saint Rose, home to the new Women’s Leadership Institute (WLI) and the residence for the senior cohort of the College’s BOLD Women’s Leadership Network Scholars, will be celebrated with a ribbon-cutting ceremony and reception on November 1 at 4:30 p.m. A press tour will be offered earlier in the day, along with the announcement of the second cohort of the BOLD Scholars, and Women’s Leadership Institute Advisory Board, a group of regional, national, and global leaders who will guide the Institute’s activities.
The 3,800-square-foot living-learning center was made possible by a $1.2 million gift by Michelle and Walt Borisenok earlier this year.

Smiles as the Academic Year Begins
We greeted new resident students and their families on move-in day and captured the excitement (and all the hard work of volunteers) in this Move-in Day 2019 video.
Then our cameras were rolling again on the first day of classes on August 26.
Watch the video of the first day of classes here.
Art Exhibit Featuring Two Alums Opens at Esther Massry Gallery
Saint Rose studio art alumni Rachel Baxter ’11 and Daesha Devón Harris ’02 returned to campus this month to exhibit their artwork as part of The Karene Faul Alumni Exhibition 2019. The exhibition opened September 6 and is on view through December 7 at the Esther Massry Gallery, 1002 Madison Avenue, Albany.
Harris was recently featured in Smithsonian Magazine for her artwork titled “Just Beyond the River,” which draws inspiration from historical accounts of people born into slavery. Baxter has shown her work nationally and internationally and has been commissioned for both public and private murals.
