CUNY Guidance for Students Traveling Home to International Countries
Amidst discussions of precarity, a group often absent from the conversation were international students, members of the CUNY community resident in the United States under limited political visas far from home and family. Sent on March 13, 2020, by the Office of Student Affairs at The Graduate Center, this email exemplified an initial attempt by CUNY leaders to tabulate the movement of the international student body during the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic. The email specifically requested that students record their travels home to international countries by entering the details into CUNYGO, the university's travel registry portal.

Gold's Spring 2020 Knowledge Infrastructures seminar in the Ph.D. Program in English at The Graduate Center, CUNY, in partnership with the Interactive Technology and Pedagogy Certificate Program. The project's goal was to resist or trouble the discourse of catastrophe around the shift to online learning caused by the COVID-19 pandemic by documenting the lived experiences of students, faculty, and staff across CUNY's 25 campuses. Further, the project wanted to document the moment of crisis response by taking a critical approach to educational technology.
