Dear CUNY Community, As we reach the midpoint of the summer session and look forward to the Fall 2024 semester, I want to reaffirm that the physical and emotional well-being of our students and employees is always a top priority at CUNY. That obligation to ensure the safety and protect the rights of all members of our community is especially important in these polarizing times. I want to remind everyone that CUNY does not tolerate acts of hate or bigotry of any kind. This includes discrimination or harassment based on national origin or heritage – including shared Jewish,… Read More »


The CCNY Libraries will return to normal operating hours on Monday, May 13th. At this time, only people with a current, valid CCNY ID will have access to the building and the libraries. Check out our website library.ccny.cuny.edu for more information or to reach out to us if you have any questions. We look forward to having you back!


Beginning on Monday, May 13th we will return to our normal modalities for classes and exams. All classes that are normally held in person will return to campus for the last three days of the semester. Final exams will also be held as they normally are, in person and on campus according to the posted schedule. Shuttle buses will also resume normal routes and hours of operations. I fully understand that returning to campus after the events of the past two weeks will be stressful. I hope that the normality of the final three days of classes next week will ease that stress as we… Read More »


Dear CCNY Students, I am inviting you all to a town hall today to speak with all of you, centering mainly around encampment related events. I’d like to spend some time spelling out a timeline for events and unpacking my thinking around the actions we took in relation to the protest.  We do not have the staff right now to support an in-person meeting, so we will be online.   The town hall meeting will be held today Wednesday, May 8, 2024 at 4pm. The meeting will be via Zoom. You can find the details below: Join Zoom Meeting https://ccny.zoom.us/j/81333854033?pwd=… Read More »

I write first of all to thank all of you for your adaptability in this stressful time. As you will have seen from my message yesterday evening, a limited number of classes will return to campus beginning tomorrow, while the rest will remain online for now. Students, faculty and staff coming to campus will find an enhanced security presence designed to keep the campus safe. Nevertheless, this may be unsettling to many of you and to our students. I ask that faculty provide maximum flexibility to our students, remembering that students with classes on campus are likely also to have… Read More »


After careful consideration and input from the campus community we will re-open campus, on a limited basis, beginning on Wednesday, May 8. Classes with essential activities that cannot be completed remotely (studios, labs, etc.) can resume on campus, with the appropriate Dean’s approval, beginning on Wednesday. Other classes will continue online for the time being. Instructors who need to hold classes on campus now should work with their Chair and the Chairs should submit a list of classes resuming in-person instruction to their Dean for approval. Anyone coming to campus will… Read More »

I write to let you know that classes will remain online on Monday, May 6th.
