City University's concerted efforts to reach out to prospective
students around the city continued during the winter with two CUNY
Information Fairs. The first, on Saturday, February 24, took place
at Ft. Hamilton High School in Brooklyn and was sponsored by State
Assemblyman Felix Ortiz, who is seen here encouraging the inquiries
of one Fair visitor.

Underscoring
the importance of this initiative, Chancellor Matthew Goldstein
and four college presidents--Christoph Kimmich (Brooklyn), Edison
Jackson (Medgar Evers), Fred Beaufait (New York City Tech), and
Byron McClenney (Kingsborough)--were on hand to speak and greet
Fair-goers. The second Fair, in the Bronx at Co-op City's Lerner
Auditorium on March 3, was co-sponsored by the Board of Directors
of the Riverbay Corporation, which oversees Co-op City. Chancellor
Goldstein, University Student Senate Chairperson Michael Anglin,
and Presidents Ricardo Fernandez (Lehman), Dolores Fernandez (Hostos),
and President Carolyn Williams (BCC) addressed the audience. Notable
on this occasion was the participation of many faculty members eager
to encourage coursework in their disciplines. Seen here in mid-spiel

College.
