>From a letter published in today's New York Times and written by the 
Chairwoman of CUNY Faculty Senate, Sandi E. Cooper:

"Once the Board of Trustees voted for a tuition increase to fill in the 
state cut, and once the numbers of early retirements of faculty and staff 
were calculated, we believe the fiscal emergency was no longer real. ... 
The restructured university voted by the trustees on June 26 reflects an 
educational wisdom designed by an administrative bureaucracy that has not 
taught a student in decades, if ever. [It has] no regard for faculty 
views about what a student needs to graduate and moves faculty and 
students around like so many chess pieces... Chairman of the faculty union 
and I have sent a letter of intent to pursue legal action against the 
university..."
