       AN  ACT  authorizing  and  directing  the city university of New York to
         allocate certain moneys for the police cadet corps program
         THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND  ASSEM-
       BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:
    1    Section  1.  Notwithstanding  any  other  provision  of  law, the city
    2  university of New York is authorized and directed to allocate the sum of
    3  two million dollars ($2,000,000) out of any moneys  otherwise  appropri-
    4  ated  to  use  for  its  police  cadet corps program for the purposes of
    5  recruiting an additional one thousand cadets for such  program  for  the
    6  2009-2010  school  year.  The  city  university of New York police cadet
    7  corps program is designed to prepare candidates for the complexities  of
    8  modern  police  work  in  an  ethnically  diverse community. The program
    9  combines college education, specialized coursework in  law  enforcement,
   10  skill-development  training  and  supervised  public safety internships.
   11  Through the extensive use of supervised internships, the  program  would
   12  provide  the  police  department with an excellent opportunity to assess
   13  the capabilities and  judge  the  character  of  candidates  for  police
   14  service.
   15    S 2. This act shall take effect April 1, 2009.
