✦ Plain-Language Summary
This resolution urges the City University of New York (CUNY) to give college credits to students who earned the New York State Seal of Civic Readiness in high school. The Seal recognizes students who completed significant civic engagement activities, like community projects and public service. Awarding college credits would help these students save money and time on their path to a CUNY degree.
