SCHENECTADY — The ⁤esteemed President of SUNY Schenectady County Community College, Steady Moono, has announced his intention to ⁢resign from his​ position‍ in the ‍summer of ‌2026.

Moono’s departure ⁢will coincide with ‌the conclusion of⁤ his ​current contract, which has been extended by the college​ until⁣ June 2026. This will mark the end of an 11-year tenure that began ​in July 2015.

“Serving as the President of ‍SUNY Schenectady has been a privilege,” Moono expressed in⁤ a statement. “I take immense ‍pride in witnessing the transformation of the college community during ​my tenure, and seeing the innovation and ‍investments across our campus evolve into the SUNY Schenectady of today and ​the future. I eagerly anticipate the developments that‌ 2025 and the subsequent years will ⁤bring.”

Under Moono’s leadership, the community college has undergone significant renovations, including Elston ⁤Hall ⁣and the‌ Learning Commons. The college also recently unveiled its new eSports ​arena.

The college administration has yet to announce when the search for Moono’s successor ‌will commence.

“I want⁢ to extend‌ my deepest gratitude to Dr. Moono for his invaluable contributions to‌ SUNY Schenectady and its‌ community,” said‌ Ann⁣ Fleming Brown,⁤ Chair of the SUNY Schenectady​ Board of Trustees. “We are grateful for his ongoing leadership⁣ and guidance, and we look⁢ forward to celebrating⁢ his ⁢accomplishments in the coming year and⁣ into 2026.”

In June 2023, the community college extended Moono’s ‌contract through June 2024, following a reversal of a decade-long trend of declining enrollment.

During Moono’s presidency, the college ‌has fostered ​a⁣ stronger ⁤relationship with ‍the Schenectady City School District, with the Schenectady Promise program offering automatic admission to the community college ‌for graduating high school seniors.
