[Important Information for Employees] Message from President Enyedi

[Office of the President]

Dear Campus,

Today, Interim SUNY Chancellor Deborah F. Stanley issued a letter in
response to the U.S. Supreme Court ruling to overturn Roe v. Wade.

Chancellor Stanley stated: “In light of the Court's action, I want to join
Governor Hochul in assuring all New Yorkers – and members of our campus
communities, in particular – that your ability to access safe, legal
reproductive healthcare services in our state is not impacted by this
ruling. In addition, services provided at SUNY healthcare centers and in
SUNY hospitals will not change.

Earlier, NYS Governor Kathy Hochul responded to the ruling in a press
release
<https://www.governor.ny.gov/news/abortion-access-always-governor-hochul-announces-robust-multi-platform-public-education>,
saying, in part: “Let me be clear: the Supreme Court has failed us, but New
York State will not. As long as I am Governor, this State will protect you."

Please know that SUNY Plattsburgh will continue to honor and prioritize the
personal health and safety of all women, particularly those who work, study
and live on our campus.
