This week our team returned to Albany with @cunyrising @younginvincibles @nypirg @psc_cuny @usscuny and other coalition members for #highereducationactionday We rallied on the Million Dollar Staircase, met with more than 100 state legislators for more equitable higher education funding and policies. Our collective priorities included FREE & FULLY FUNDED CUNY & SUNY; free Student Metro/Omni cards; increased financial aid & opportunity programs; basic needs services (food & housing security, mental health services & emergency aid for students); and increased numbers of faculty and administrators. We also shared information on why NYS needs a State Longitudinal Data System #SLDS Next stop, Washington, DC! #whywedothiswork #EducationEquity #DegreesNYC
