Tell CUNY: No ICE/DHS on campus!

The federal government’s escalating attack on universities endangers every member of the CUNY community. The City University’s history as a site of struggle for freedom and mass access to education demands that we at CUNY become a public voice against repression, silencing, erasure of history, and denial of rights.

The unionized faculty and staff of the City University of New York represented by the Professional Staff Congress (PSC) organized a demonstration outside Board of Trustees Chair Bill Thompson's Investment Bank at 100 Wall Street in Manhattan on June 28, 2024 to hold him accountable for CUNY's attacks on job security and governance, and to make sure he knows that he needs to tell his bargain team to change course and agree to a fair contract with real raises.
