City school district seeks private foundation funding
Syracuse's public schools rely on small private grants amid cuts in federal aid. Balmer notes local foundations are risk-averse and capacity-limited, citing Ford Foundation support in 1960s for Madison Area Project. Current grants total modest sums from Corcoran Nottingham Fowler and others, with focus on student programs and parent involvement.

State to take more active role in trash disposal
Assemblyman Maurice Hinchey told a University College Roundtable that the state should enforce landfill standards, tighten resource recovery plant rules, and consider financing aid. He warned New York faces a trash crisis with 40,000 tons daily and far few landfills, many with invalid permits or groundwater contamination. He supports stricter DEC enforcement, more permit reviews, and regional financing to spur recycling and recovery while noting hidden costs of landfilling and leachate concerns.
