Call on NY Governor Hochul to fully fund public higher education as a public good. The share of SUNY and CUNY core operating costs paid for by student tuition and fees must be significantly decreased. This must be made possible by increasing the share of public funds going to public higher education in Gov. Hochul’s FY24 Executive Budget.
Sign this petition to call on NYS decision-makers to work together to ensure every item on UFS’s list of suggested approaches to increasing direct state aid to every SUNY and CUNY institution is addressed in the FY24 Enacted Budget.
Anyone living in NY can also contact their state legislators to support the New Deal for Higher Education in NY.
Education is essential for bettering society and helping people out of poverty. Higher education should be financially accessible to everyone who wants to better themselves. Investment in higher education will help us all. Support higher education funding
