It's the Brian Larrow Show on WNYC. Good morning again everyone.

Later this hour we will end today's show.

You know, we often end with a call in about things going on in our lives one way or the other.

Today it's going to be a call in about how you're managing

your streaming service budget, because there's more people

cut the cord from cable or even add to cable, because you want to see things that are on

Netflix or you want to see things that are on Hulu or whatever it is. The price

structures, the features keep changing. Are you better off than when everything was all bundled together

and you had to have these wires running through your house?

So we're going to talk about how you're managing your streaming service budget and watching time coming up later this hour.

Now we'll talk about Cuny and public colleges generally through the lens of one of Cuny's longest

serving and by many accounts most creative

leaders.

He is John Mogulescu, now retired after nearly 50 years in teaching and leadership roles

at Cuny. His reputation is very much that of an innovator who has tried to keep the system in touch with the needs of the New Yorkers who might attend in each generation.

He is said to have created 22 new degree programs and so it's no

accident that the memoir he has just published is called the Dean of New Things,

the Dean of New Things, subtitle Bringing Change to

Cuny and New York City. Technically he's now the Dean Emeritus of the

School of Professional Studies at Cuny. Dean Mogulescu, congratulations on your career

and on your book release.

Welcome to WNYC.
