About the Dr. Battisti Student Reflection Pergola Area
In honor of Dr. Francis Battisti’s long-standing commitment to the college, we are collecting donations to develop a peaceful outdoor reflection space on campus, where students and faculty can gather for conversation and connection.
Our goal is to purchase and install a pergola and develop a student gathering area to be located between the Natural Science Center and the Calice Advanced Manufacturing Center. This space will also include seating and some landscaping.
Dr. Battisti
After 50 years at the college, Executive Vice President and Chief Academic Officer, Dr. Battisti is celebrating his time at SUNY Broome and entering the next chapter of his life and career. A proud SUNY Broome alumnus, Francis was among the first counselors hired at the college. He rose to director, academic dean, and then professor, teaching psychology and mentoring generations of students before joining the administration. He has worked for every president in the college’s history, and his contributions have made an indelible impact on SUNY Broome.
