    2010–2011 Annual Report
A Shared Vision for Our Future Page 1




A Message from
the Leadership
The past academic year will go down in our
history as the year that this venerable institution
secured its future and broadened its horizons by
joining with the Touro College and University
System on May 25, 2011.
In our 2010–2011 Annual Report, we offer our congratulations
and our thanks for the hard work and dedication, the coordi-
nating and the communicating, the negotiating and financial
planning carried out by a significant portion of the NYMC com-
munity—and to the newest members of that community, the
visionary leaders from Touro who came into our midst to help
bring the partnership into being.

They contributed their time and expertise, sought solutions to
problems, and offered their best counsel and creative thinking.
What emerged was truly a creation brought about by determi-
nation and diligence—a shared accomplishment, as you will
see in the pages of this annual report.

Now joined, our two institutions go forward together with com-
plementary strengths in research and education, enabling new
ventures to take root and grow. New York Medical College will
thrive on new resources to better serve its mission of research,
education and health care that has been our driving force for
more than 150 years.

A bright new future unfurls before us. We invite you to read
about the progress made by New York Medical College in aca-
demic year 2010–2011.

                                      T     he Board of Trustees, whose members
                                            remained at their posts until the day New
                                      York Medical College transitioned to its new
                                      affiliation with Touro, may be counted among
                                      the most loyal and dedicated lay leaders ever to
                                      gather around a conference table.
                                      Like the founders, who carved a vision for a new kind of edu-
                                      cational institution out of the turmoil of their times, and who
                                      then worked tirelessly to usher that dream to reality, these
                                      trusted servants have given of themselves, their time and
                                      expertise, their connections and their influence, and even of
                                      their personal worth, to lead the College to a new dawn of
                                      prosperity and growth. Many of them served for a decade or
                                      more, and after each of their names we have listed the year
                                      they joined the board. This group of stalwart individuals
                                      deserves our thanks for their past service and for their contin-
                                      ued involvement with New York Medical College.

        T    hey meet on alternate Tuesday mornings to
             discuss all manner of College business, from
        the strategic to the prosaic.
        Each member has a full plate of responsibilities that comprise
        the inner workings of this academic institution. They are the
        senior leadership team, the advisors and lieutenants who carry
        out the daily round of activities to keep New York Medical
        College moving forward in its mission. Their years of service
        —in some cases decades—could almost qualify them for
        “frequent flyer” status, navigating the years of plenty, the
        years of struggle, and now the years of transition. Now that
        their number comprises members of Touro College, they
        are looking forward to the synergy that comes from fresh
        approaches and shared goals, a sensation that has already
        made itself felt in their midst.

  • 1. A Shared Vision for our future New York Medical College A Member of the Touro College and University System 2010–2011 Annual Report
  • 2. A Shared Vision for Our Future Page 1 A Message from the Leadership The past academic year will go down in our history as the year that this venerable institution secured its future and broadened its horizons by joining with the Touro College and University System on May 25, 2011. In our 2010–2011 Annual Report, we offer our congratulations and our thanks for the hard work and dedication, the coordi- nating and the communicating, the negotiating and financial planning carried out by a significant portion of the NYMC com- munity—and to the newest members of that community, the visionary leaders from Touro who came into our midst to help bring the partnership into being. They contributed their time and expertise, sought solutions to problems, and offered their best counsel and creative thinking. What emerged was truly a creation brought about by determi- nation and diligence—a shared accomplishment, as you will see in the pages of this annual report. Now joined, our two institutions go forward together with com- plementary strengths in research and education, enabling new ventures to take root and grow. New York Medical College will thrive on new resources to better serve its mission of research, education and health care that has been our driving force for more than 150 years. A bright new future unfurls before us. We invite you to read about the progress made by New York Medical College in aca- demic year 2010–2011. Karl P.

Page 2 NYMC 2010–2011 Annual Report A Shared Vision for Our Future Page 3 T he Board of Trustees, whose members remained at their posts until the day New York Medical College transitioned to its new affiliation with Touro, may be counted among the most loyal and dedicated lay leaders ever to gather around a conference table. Like the founders, who carved a vision for a new kind of edu- cational institution out of the turmoil of their times, and who then worked tirelessly to usher that dream to reality, these trusted servants have given of themselves, their time and expertise, their connections and their influence, and even of their personal worth, to lead the College to a new dawn of prosperity and growth. Many of them served for a decade or more, and after each of their names we have listed the year they joined the board. This group of stalwart individuals deserves our thanks for their past service and for their contin- ued involvement with New York Medical College. From left: Unswerving Dedication: Gerard D.

Each member has a full plate of responsibilities that comprise the inner workings of this academic institution. They are the senior leadership team, the advisors and lieutenants who carry out the daily round of activities to keep New York Medical College moving forward in its mission. Their years of service —in some cases decades—could almost qualify them for “frequent flyer” status, navigating the years of plenty, the years of struggle, and now the years of transition. Now that their number comprises members of Touro College, they are looking forward to the synergy that comes from fresh approaches and shared goals, a sensation that has already made itself felt in their midst.

Page 6 NYMC 2010–2011 Annual Report A Shared Vision for Our Future Page 7 O nce an agreement was signed in December 2009, setting forth the intention of the two institutions to join forces, several groups of individuals commenced the work known as “the transition.” An ad hoc committee of representatives from all corners of the university began meeting to advise College leaders of the needs of all constituencies, ensuring that every voice would be heard. Then, once the actual work of transition was underway, a Transition Steering Committee began meeting with a second set of groups whose primary objective was to advise, support and carry out the directives set forth by the steering commit- tee. These Task Forces and Work Groups met periodically throughout the months that followed, addressing financial operations, religious affairs, communications, health sciences education, research, governance and regulatory matters. The resulting smooth transition that reached its pinnacle on May 25, 2011, bears the handprints of these numerous dedicated individuals. *See key at left to identify groups and committees. a committed cross section: Back row, from left: Michael A.
