Well. New York City has a long tradition of having education available at the higher education level for great masses of students. New York City has been the place where large numbers of immigrants have come in and found opportunity. Our City University was established at the height of the Depression. so we were able to maintain City University during the Depression. and now we are saying we cannot do it. We have to increase the tuition cost. First of all. for years there was no tuition at all. and then we imposed tuition. and now we have to increase the tuition cost because we are getting less aid from the Federal Government and less aid from the State government.
