Agree but didn’t realize NYU was considered “elite” as a state school. In fact was a bit surprised seeing this headline in the first place, as SUNY and CUNY tend to fly below the radar (i.e., wouldn’t usually need to take a stance on a divisive issue) but you’re right that it’s likely pressure from wealthy alumni. (apparently not a suny school at all! I’ve been giving it too much credit all this time. Just another private school.)
Wasn’t Seinfeld a Queens College CUNY alumnus? I guess there’s no reason they wouldn’t donate to NYU as well, just didn’t know there was a connection there.
he recently talked at darthmouth, i believed he had a fan in the admin who let him speak there, also his kids go there. he called people woke for not laughing at his “jokes”
It’s almost like all of these elite universities are beholden to their wealthy alumni.

Oh damn you’re right! I assumed it was a SUNY school
It’s considered like tier 2 elite. It’s not an ivy league, but it’s up there.
Ah, yes that makes sense. Thank you!
major donors are jewish, and with ties to Israel or other rich celebreties, hint seindfeld and his wife.
