In 2019, with landmark decisions on equality before the U.S. Supreme Court and an unprecedented attempt to roll back hard-fought rights on both the state and national level, SUNY Chancellor Kristina M. Johnson will join Judy and Dennis Shepard at SUNY’s 1st “Thought Leaders” event for a personal and impactful conversation about Matthew’s legacy, how far we’ve come, and all we stand to lose. </p><p>The evening begins with a reception from 6-7:00pm, followed by the program from 7-8:00pm.</p>
