Despite TCNJ’s willingness to house the Sarnoff’s collections and integrate them into their curriculum, they still need $100,000 to cover the cost of renovations. It is my hope that New Jersey lawmakers will be able to secure these funds and prevent this material from leaving the state.

Giving all American kids first-rate health care, along with a first rate education — even if it involves government spending (G) — would for the most part be a solid investment in the future of labor productivity.

On the whole, the Board believes Dean Paxson brings a sound approach and fresh ideas to her position that will help her to meet the challenges the school faces.
