Council Member Vernikov questions Chancellor Rodriguez about the consequences for students who damage or destroy property on CUNY campuses. The Chancellor struggles to provide specific examples of incidents and their outcomes.

  • Chancellor Rodriguez mentions that students are subject to the Henderson rules
  • He is unable to provide concrete examples of consequences for property damage
  • The discussion reveals a lack of clear information about how CUNY handles these incidents
