SUNY Schools on LI Get $37 million funding boost

On Long Island, the share of the new funding is $37 million, the SUNY system said Tuesday in a news release.
The money, separate from tuition and allocated in the recently passed state budget, is to be spent mostly on salary and benefits from 2023 through 2025 that were negotiated in 2023 with the union representing faculty and professional staff, according to SUNY spokeswoman Holly Liapis.
