Gov. Kathy Hochul’s CUNY shakeup is fake

A lot for the rumored shakeup of the Metropolis College board.

Sure, Gov. Kathy Hochul final week named Dr. Barbaralee Diamonstein-Spielvogel to the CUNY Board of Trustees.

Since she’s Jewish, that’s an obvious nod to the outcry over the anti-Semitic hate speech throughout final month’s CUNY Regulation graduation and the system’s many different antisemitic points.

However it’s telling that she’ll exchange ex-Bronx Borough President Fernando Ferrer — a outstanding backer of the gov’s 2022 Democratic major rival, ex-Rep. Tom Suozzi.

Plus, Hochul re-appointed board chairman Invoice Thompson ( a former metropolis comptroller and prez of town Board of Training) and his vice-chair Sandra Wilkin to second phrases.

Certain, festering antisemitism and radical leftism had been gaining traction on CUNY campuses lengthy earlier than Thompson or Wilkin got here on the scene, however they’ve performed little or nothing to counter the poison.

It took Thompson a number of days to even problem a press release rebuking CUNY Regulation grad Fatima Mousa Mohammed’s incendiary graduation deal with smearing Israel, the NYPD and the whole US army.

That is nothing just like the course correction CUNY wants; it’s barely even shuffling deck chair on the Titanic.
