On October 15 in the President’s Conference Room on the Chambers Street campus of Borough of Manhattan Community College (BMCC/CUNY), BMCC President Anthony E. Munroe and EDISU President Alessandro Ciro Sciretti, met to sign a Statement of Shared Interest.

Ente Regionale Per Il Diritto Allo Studio Universitario Del Piedmonte (EDISU), is located in Turin, the capital city of Piedmonte, a region in northwestern Italy.

The breakfast event, attended by BMCC leadership and other members of the college community, opened with remarks by President Munroe.

“This signing ceremony is a testament to our mutual intention to promote educational cooperation and to deepen the ties between our institutions,” President Munroe told the gathering. “It embodies our shared vision of creating opportunities for our students to expand their horizons and to engage with diverse perspectives.”

Together, said President Munroe, the two institutions will ensure that their students “are well-prepared for the challenges of today and equipped to thrive in the global community of tomorrow.”

These efforts will include collaborative programs, exchange opportunities and shared resources.

President Sciretti also spoke to the gathering, and remarks were delivered by BMCC Vice President of Enrollment Management, Sanjay Ramdath, and BMCC Associate Provost of Academic Affairs, Liesl B. Jones.

In December 2023, BMCC President Munroe signed a Statement of Shared Interest with the University of Turin, a public research university  located—as is EDISU—in the Piedmonte region of Italy.
