Higher Education: Forgotten Pasts and Alternative Futures–Lessons from the CUNY Experience

Register here for the first in a series of virtual panel discussions co-sponsored by Scholars for a New Deal for Higher Education, Critical Legal Collective, and the AAUP’s Center for the Defense of Academic Freedom.

Panelists will include American historian and author, Dr. Ellen Schrecker, professor of economics and political science at Brooklyn College and John Jay College, CUNY, Dr. Corrina Mullin, and undergraduate CUNY student, Musa Kareem. The conversation will be moderated by Professor Chaumtoli Huq, professor of law at CUNY School of Law and will explore the history of support for higher education as a public good, with free or very low tuition, including a close look at the example of the City University of New York (CUNY), past and present.
