Suffolk County Community College requests land for campus hi-tech center

Suffolk Community College has petitioned the county to turn over to it 62 acres of land so that it can build a high-tech center on its campus, according to Long Island Newsday. The college plans to take part in New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s “Start-Up New York” program.  The program is designed to lure hi-tech companies to tax-free zones on college campuses.
