 City University of New York
Hunter Campus (all campuses recommended: City College, Lehman College, Baruch College, Center for Worker Education, Brooklyn College, Queens College, Medgar Evers, Borough of Manhattan Community College)
"I received my graduate degree in Creative Writing from City College where I studied with many famous writers and scholars including Jane Marcus, Edna O'Brien, and Fred Tuten. Walter Moseley was a fellow student with me! Great school, but a commuter school. Not much in the way of on campus activities. People leave after class. Most students have jobs and full lives off campus that do not include the college." -----Katherine Arnoldi

The State Universities of New York have the best tuition, housing and day care. Hamilton College has a despicable, separate but not equal "token" program for single moms, but the college is not accessible. Shame on them. Barnard College told us when we called that they do not have "single moms at Barnard." Get out there and fight here!!! Demonstrations needed ASAP at Barnard!
