He will also work with The Gifford Foundation, the Greater Syracuse Chamber of Commerce, the Central New York Community Foundation and National Grid.
"The university has always been an entrepreneurial school," MacInnes said. "The new position offers a way to build on something that the university has great strength in."
Students from every college at SU will benefit from the new position, Spina said. "By next fall, there will be new courses developed across the university, and new opportunities for learning experiences such as co-ops and internships," he said.
The Martin J. Whitman School of Management has always been involved in community service. Students and faculty commit themselves to projects that lead to positive changes within the community.
"One of our classes helped put a wireless network in one of Syracuse's public libraries," Kingma said. "It was a great project not only for the library, but for local businesses who also have access to the wireless network."
Though Kingma has taken on a new position, he will continue his job as associate dean of Information Studies.
"There are many students and faculty at SU who want to work more on projects that help the city," Kingma said. "This position is a great opportunity for me to build on this campus-wide."
