I have a 21 2 year old. Its another rent to pay for child care these days. But we try to resolve that. We actually try to resolve that by having more child care slots available. So, i think if you just look at it, yes, Everybody Knows city college is, you know, important, but these are the things that let us secure we wanted to prioritize classes. And maybe we could have made some better decisions. I think so, yes, but really our decisions were made so we can provide access to everybody. And then my last point before i leave is i know that there was a comment about the real estate department. I do really appreciate the Mayors Office being involved with this process, but i do think that one service we might not need in terms of prioritization of resources is our real estate department. [laughter] i think we have a pretty good understanding of how valuable city college is in the altruistic part and the monetary part as well.

Valuable city college is in the altruistic part and the monetary part as well. And i dont think were for sale so i dont really need that applause i would just humbly request that we can, you know, shift the resources to other things other than our real estate. Thank you so much. I really appreciate this hearing and opportunity to speak. applause bravo. Thank you [speaker not understood]. Good afternoon, chair cohen, supervisors.
