This is a very special year for the College of Staten Island. During the 2026–2027 academic year, we’re celebrating 50 years of CSI and 70 years of public higher education on Staten Island.
For five decades, CSI has opened doors, expanded opportunities, and helped generations of students build their futures. Now, as we celebrate our history, we’re looking ahead to the next 50 years.
Tomorrow, our CUNY Tuesday campaign begins. From Tuesday, Nov. 10 through Tuesday, Dec. 1, we invite you to join alumni, friends, faculty, staff, and supporters in investing in the students, programs, and opportunities that will shape CSI’s future.
Your generosity helps fund the College’s Greatest Needs by strengthening student support, expanding hands-on learning, and creating opportunities that can change lives. Every gift helps our students succeed and makes a difference in the future of our College and our community.
Our first 50 years were built together. Let’s build what’s next.
Stay tuned for tomorrow’s campaign launch and your opportunity to make an impact.
Thank you for being part of the CSI community.
