Share Your CCNY Love Story With Us!

City College is a national leader in educating a truly diverse pool of talented students who go on to make their alma mater proud in every way.

For almost 175 years, we have remained home to academically rigorous divisions and schools, community engagement programs, and cultural and artistic events that are open to not only our campus community but also the greater New York City community at large.

All across campus - from the old Lewisohn Stadium to Baskerville Hall and from the Grove School Building to our South Campus buildings - CCNY alumni have stories of meeting their significant other and finding platonic friendships in classrooms or at student events and embarking on their post-CCNY careers together, always having CCNY as their anchor.

In their pursuit of wisdom and self-understanding, the ancient Greeks found seven different varieties of love. Pragma, the so-called enduring love, is one that has aged, matured, and developed over time. Pragma is a type of love that is not easily found. Yet, we spoke to CCNY alumni who have an enduring love for their alma mater, and who were also blessed to find their everlasting love or best friends at City College.
