You talk about Affordable Housing, well, where are all these families kids going to go to school . Just think of how many students, and one gentleman who very aptly said, a nurses assistant assistant, a custodian, the teacher, how did these people get the education in the first place . A lot of them dont have parents who can afford tuition, and i am so fearful that city college will just be really in a very dangerous position if you let a project the way it is now go through. I really appreciate going forward, looking forward to the e. I. R. , that you really wrap your arms around what is good for the college and the students and the future students. Thank you. Thank you.
