As you know, April 2006 is CUNY Disability Awareness Month, a celebration of the vibrant contribution the CUNY's more than 9,000 students with disabilities make to the richness of University life.
Don Passantino, the long-time student leader for whom the USS Passantino Scholarships are named, helped to firmly root USS's long standing tradition on inclusive governance at USS. On April 26, 2006, at an awards dinner honoring University leaders who have promoted access and opportunity for people with disabilities, Don will receive a Legacy Award posthumously, honoring his legacy of student advocacy and justice. At this ceremony, the Queens College Committee for Disabled Students with announce that it has renamed its campus center the Passantino Center for Student Empowerment.
Empowering More than 9,000 Students at CUNY!
