As CUNY started its Fall 2021 classes yesterday, I am wishing all the students best of luck, health and excellence in education. 

But, on a personal note, it was a very emotional day for me because, in the morning, I dropped off my eldest daughter for her first undergraduate class at a CUNY college. Today, I am now officially the mother of a college student. It reminds me that time passes faster before we can even count the years.
