The day included viewing the East Quad with Senior Vice President for Finance and Administration Alan Gilbert, where campus improvement projects will soon be underway thanks to a capital grant from New York State secured by Senator Gounardes in 2019. This investment marks a significant milestone in campus revitalization efforts. In addition, the Senator provided funding in 2024 to explore the establishment of a new 鈥淏usiness of Music鈥� program, which will be housed in the School of Visual, Media and Performing Arts, an exciting initiative blending creativity with entrepreneurship.
As a proud CUNY graduate, Senator Gounardes also took time to connect with students over lunch, listening to their perspectives on the future of higher education.
