8.25.16 - Farmingdale State to offer first graduate degree program
"Farmingdale State College President John S. Nader, in his welcome convocation to the 9,000-student campus Thursday, announced the school soon will offer its first graduate degree program — a master of science in technological development."
"The 104-year-old public college, part of the state university system, started as an agricultural and technical school, mainly offering two-year degrees until its first bachelor’s program started in 1985."
"Nader, 61, former provost of SUNY Delhi and a former mayor of the city of Oneonta, started last month as Farmingdale’s ninth president. He succeeds W. Hubert Keen, who was president since 2007. Keen stepped down in June and now is president of Nassau Community College."
