From Chancellor Matthew Goldstein to
The City University of New York Community
One of the hallmarks of The City University of New York
community is its unselfish concern for others, manifested in
the many volunteer and charitable activities undertaken by
CUNY employees across the five boroughs. Nowhere is this
better expressed than in the CUNY Campaign conducted
in conjunction with the United Way and other community
agencies. The University’s faculty and staff have always giv-
en generously to over 1,000 agencies that help our friends
and neighbors throughout the city. All of us can take great
pride in these efforts.
As we launch our 26th CUNY Campaign, our communities Contents
need our help more than ever. Difficult economic times con-
