CUNY DIGITAL HISTORY ARCHIVE

Written three weeks into the City University of New York (CUNY) strikes of 1991, this flyer, signed CCNY STRIKE STUDENTS (City College of New York), urged students to support the movement and attend general assemblies. Daily mass general assemblies took place every day at 6 PM at CCNY, in which collective decisions in activity, strategy, and tactics were discussed. The flyer argued that if the tuition increased, budgets cut, and faculty layoffs were implemented, thousands of students would be forced out of higher education, and the attacks on education would continue.
