NEW PALTZ — The College Council at SUNY New Paltz will meet in executive session on Tuesday, October 19 at the College Terrace Conference Center. The 6:00 p.m. meeting will provide an opportunity for College Council members to meet with Frank Horton, president emeritus of the University of Toledo, who has been designated as the peer evaluator for President Roger Bowen.
