	The Ashley Schiff Forest Preserve
		SCHIFF — A 26-acre nature preserve, a courtyard full of azaleas, and a pond lined with apple trees, are some of the living reminders on the Stony Brook campus of one of the university’s most popular professors, Ashley Schiff.
		Schiff joined the Stony Brook faculty in 1964, at a time, says his widow, Dorothy Schiff-Shannon, when “students were looking for heroes.” He saw, in the fledgling university, the potential for creating an aesthetic and intellectual quality of life.
		Schiff wanted to see areas of campus preserved in their natural state, while Toll’s priority was fulfilling the state’s mandate to construct a university center for scientific research.

	American Journalism Review
		One of the most famous editorial hammers ever dropped on a candidate was wielded in 1958 by Dorothy Schiff, owner of the then-liberal New York Post.
		Schiff's editorial bludgeoning was an example, albeit in the extreme, of what Jay Rosen, chair of the journalism department at New York University, calls using "the endorsement as a tool of power," a display of institutional chest-thumping that proclaims the civic authority of the newspaper.
		Endorsement writers affirm, knowingly or unknowingly, this stance by contending that because they have more knowledge of issues, more access to candidates and more time for consideration than the public, they can arrive at a more judicious, credible opinion.
