We congratulate Regents and on their reelection today to the Board of Regents and welcome Shino Tanikawa of Manhattan, who will represent the 1^st Judicial District, New York County.

Regents Mittler and Turner, and Regent-Elect Tanikawa, will work to further the Board and Department鈥檚 commitment to empowering all young people to succeed and creating welcoming schools for all students regardless of race, ethnicity, gender, housing status, sexual orientation, immigration status, ability to speak English, or disability status.

Each Regent brings their own wealth of knowledge, and multi-faceted perspective, that helps shape policy, and a commitment to instill equity in our state鈥檚 schools and universities, libraries and museums, adult education and vocational programs, and the professions.

We thank Regent Nan Eileen Mead for her service to the people of New York and wish her success in her future advocacy. Her dedication to lifting the voices of our young people has been invaluable during her time with the Board.

Helen Keller said, 鈥淎lone we can do so little; together we can do so much.鈥� We are honored to continue working alongside Regents Mittler and Turner and excited to begin our work with Regent-Elect Tanikawa to raise all people's knowledge, skill, and opportunity in New York.
