Fighting for a New Deal for CUNY

The PSC, CUNY Rising Alliance, and a growing coalition of allies are committed to ensuring that the City University of New York (CUNY) remains a powerful source of quality higher education for people of our state. Investments in CUNY are investments in racial and economic justice. 80% of CUNY’s quarter million students are people of color; more than 50% come from families earning less than $30,000 a year.

Where we're going

Where we've been

We’ve had important victories and invigorated the fight for our great, struggling, public university. There have been setbacks, too.

Decades of state disinvestment

CUNY's Microsoft email has a security block for mass mailings that has held up some of our emails. A few thousand members have already voted, and we will all have the chance to vote. AAA believes they have a workaround, and they will again send out the message to all eligible members who have not yet voted. The emails will begin to go out in batches tonight, Monday, December 23rd. It may take a while to land in your inbox, (spam, or junk mail.)
