Outstanding Faculty at Hunter College

Dr. Pamela S. Falk

Professor of American Foreign Policy and International Relations and Law at Hunter College, Pamela Falk holds several other titles on her impressive resume. Falk received her Ph.D. from New York University and works as a CBS foreign affairs analyst. She’s the former staff director of a U.S. Congressional Subcommittee of the House of Representatives International Relations Committee. Falk has written and edited six books on international relations. She is the Team Faculty Advisor of the Hunter College Model UN Team which was launched in 2007. It consists of Hunter’s top students, diverse and hard working, many first-generation college students, whose families hail from six continents. The team has won awards at national competitions in New York and Washington, D.C. as well as at international competitions in England, South Korea, the Czech Republic and Malaysia, and students from the team have gone on to law school, White House internships, and professional and academic careers. Inhae Song, a junior from South Korea who is in the College’s Chinese Flagship program and was an Intern at the Asia Society, said, “One of the great benefits of the Hunter Team is our access to U.N. Headquarters and diplomats, and the fact that, at Hunter, the Model U.N. Team is a class, so we have the time to write in-depth research papers.

Dr. Gary Krasilovsky

Dr. Gary Krasilovsky is an associate professor at Hunter College and director of the Physical Therapy program at the City University of New York Graduate Center. Krasilovsky received his bachelor’s degree in education at the University of Missouri in 1971 before receiving his Ph.D. in pathokinesiology from New York University. 

The Doctorate of Physical Therapy (DPT) program is a collaboration between the Graduate Center of CUNY and Hunter College. Hunter has offered Continuing Education courses in physical therapy and other health sciences since the founding of the School of Health Sciences in the late 1960s. The school remains the only one of its kind in the City University of New York system.  The DPT is the preferred entry-level degree for all physical therapists. It is a clinical degree, like those awarded to podiatrists and dentists.

The Program is full time program, with courses offered during the day, and three calendar years in duration.  The curriculum provides students with a strong foundation covering all aspects of Physical Therapy practice, followed by the attainment of advanced skills.

Professor Dara Meyers-Kingsley

Hunter College is raising the visibility of its renowned arts programs during this academic year through two new initiatives: The Arts Across the Curriculum Initiative and the Muse Scholars Program. Dara Meyers-Kingsley, a curator of contemporary art and media who teaches in the Macaulay Honors College at Hunter and previously taught at Parsons The New School of Design, directs these programs.

This past summer 2011, Hunter College received a planning grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. During this planning year, the  Arts Across the Curriculum Initiative is piloting a variety of approaches will introduce the arts throughout the curriculum and expose more Hunter undergraduates to the rich cultural resources of New York City.
