[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is cal tech public or private? Impressed by CUNY's standing. [b]This system serves students of moderate means.[/b][/quote] I went to CUNY. At the time (late 80s), it cost $625 per semester, to take a full course load (18 credits, but I have taken as many as 24 for the same price, with the Dean's blessings), which we couldn't afford to pay; so thankful for Pell Grant and other options that allowed us to cobble together that money. I was one of the lucky ones, because I at least had a home and family to go back to at the end of the day, and didn't have to worry about going hungry. Some of the kids I worked with would go to functions and talks within the school, because that often meant free food. At least free coffee/tea, which might be all the food they had for the day. Moderate means was probably at the very top end of wealth for the kids who went to CUNY. [/quote]
