Promotion of Fellowship: Enhancing communication and fellowship among members and fostering strong ties between alumni and the institution. Historical Overview The PAA has a rich history that dates back to 1863 with the inception of the annual Alumni Banquet. Officially organized in 1872, it was initially exclusive to degree holders. Over the years, the association evolved and expanded its membership to include all graduates and former students who left in good standing. Major historical milestones include: 1872: Formation of the Polytechnic Alumni Association. 1890s: Merger with the Polytechnic Reunion, broadening the scope and functions. 1932: Official incorporation as the Brooklyn Polytechnic Alumni Association, Inc. 1960s: Transition to a non-dues paying organization in support of institute fundraising. 1996 and Beyond: Re-chartering as the School of Engineering Alumni Association and subsequent renaming to the Polytechnic Institute Alumni Association, reflecting its alignment with NYU. The association now boasts over 33,000 members across 68 countries, illustrating its vast and diverse network. Our Alma Mater The alma mater song, penned by John R. Brierly in 1910, encapsulates the spirit and pride of the Polytechnic community. With lyrics that encourage alumni to "raise your voices in a joyous song," it serves as a rallying cry for celebration and remembrance of the time spent at the institute. The song is a cherished tradition that reinforces the values of striving and unity—echoing the historical and ongoing contributions of the alumni to their alma mater. Meeting Dates and Further Involvement The PAA holds regular meetings to discuss ongoing activities, plan new initiatives, and strengthen the alumni network. These gatherings are pivotal for steering the association’s goals and ensuring active participation from its members in various institutional developments. Conclusion The Polytechnic Alumni Association is more than just a community; it is a foundational part of the Polytechnic Institute that actively contributes to the school’s legacy of innovation and excellence. Through its committed activities and robust history, the PAA ensures that the bond between alumni and their alma mater remains strong and impactful.

For more information see, http://dublincore.org/documents/dces/. Title A name given to the resource Advancing Bioengineering and Industry Collaboration Description An account of the resource The Biomatrix Research Center, established at the NYU Polytechnic School of Engineering and generously supported by a $4.5 million grant from the Endre A. Balazs Foundation, marks a significant stride towards advancing bioengineering research with a keen focus on hyaluronan—a crucial polysaccharide in vertebrate biomatrix. Located in the burgeoning Health Corridor of Manhattan, the center not only capitalizes on its geographical advantage but also fosters a dynamic collaboration across various NYU schools, including the School of Medicine and the College of Nursing. The research at the Biomatrix Research Center is spearheaded by Mary Cowman, an esteemed biochemist renowned for her work with hyaluronan. The center continues the pioneering efforts of the Matrix Biology Institute, founded by Drs. Endre Balazs and Janet Denlinger, to delve into the structural and functional properties of cellular matrices and explore their medical applications. Their work, particularly in the therapeutic uses of hyaluronan, has historical roots going back to the 1930s when it was first extracted from bovine eyes and later, more feasibly, from rooster combs by Balazs. Hyaluronan has been instrumental in various medical treatments, including arthritis symptom management and ocular protection during surgeries. However, its potential extends far beyond these applications. The Biomatrix Research Center is poised to explore its capability in controlling cancer progression, enhancing wound healing, and repairing tissue damage, thereby bridging innovative research with real-world medical solutions. The integration of the Biomatrix Research Center within NYU not only promotes multidisciplinary research but also establishes a robust connection with the industry. This relationship is critical as it enables the translation of laboratory breakthroughs into viable medical innovations, thus enhancing patient care and therapeutic techniques. The center’s position in Manhattan’s Health Corridor further facilitates partnerships with biotech and pharmaceutical companies, leveraging NYU’s historical strengths in entrepreneurship and innovation to push the boundaries of bioengineering and healthcare. This strategic alignment with the industry is exemplified during the center’s grand opening, attended by notable figures from both the academic and industrial sectors. The enthusiasm for hyaluronan’s potential expressed by attendees underscores the center's role as a pivotal player in translating scientific research into industrial applications, thus maintaining NYU’s legacy of fostering innovation that benefits society at large.
