SEND AN ACT NOW LETTER TO THE CHANCELLOR.  State lawmakers cut CUNY's budget by $50.6 million In August - after Chancellor Goldstein told them that the impact of the cut could be minimized.  That message was a green light for legislators to cut CUNY's budget once again.  But faculty, staff and students on the campuses know that CUNY cannot afford a cut of even one dollar to its budget, much less $50.6 million. Click the ACT NOW logo to the left to send a letter to the Chancellor telling him what $50.6 million could buy.  Make it abundantly clear-- CUNY cannot afford any more budget cuts!

To help you put these cuts in perspective, look at two pieces in the September '08 Clarion.

• An article on the budget cuts.

• An op/ed by Barbara Bowen on with a beginning list on what the $50.6 million could buy.
