1. There will be a solar eclipse happening at about 3:30pm. At the same time, there will be a CUNY-wide walkout in support of the Students for Justice in Palestine on both 42nd Street and the Quad at CCNY, so everyone should be cognizant of this.

2. There is currently an investigation into antisemitism on campus by the Latham & Watkins law firm across CUNY campuses. So far, they have spoken to President Boudreau, VP Mozeleski, Executive Counsel Occiogrosso, CDO Konigsberg and Dr. Watson. President Boudreau encouraged all departments to continue with their strategies to reduce student anxiety on campus and applauded the work that has been done thus far on a college level.

3. The budget conversations at the state level is nearing its end, and announcements will be made in the coming days. If there are any updates from the Council of Presidents meeting on April 17, an email will be sent out from the President’s Office.

4. A memo regarding first amendment audits in CUNY spaces will be sent out for general review. A conversation broke out surrounding the understanding and demarcation of public and private space on campus.

5. City College has been in collaboration with EMSI/Lightcast to evaluate the economic impact of the college on the communities it works with. The previous impact study showed an impact of 1.2 billion and the one set to be released shows an impact of 3.2 billion. There will be an official release of the study in the coming weeks, and every department is expected to utilize this information for future communications and marketing.

Action Item: After reading the First Amendment Audit Memo, everyone should decide what indoor spaces they would like to mark as public, and come back to the April 29 Cabinet meeting with questions about access.
