@defectueux As if you need a 4 year degree to be a journalist. What a joke.

CUNY decided that it would eradicate journalism from its 4-year colleges... basically they decided that AD/PR and Film programs would bring in more revenue and there would be less need to give more money to the Media depts. as a whole

CUNY does offer a BA but it is under the City University of New York... and Journalism is still a minor at the undergrad level where you take half of your classes and take the rest at the CUNY center in mid-town...
