<p>I have just talked to a Macaulay honors alumni and it seems like she really did enjoy her time there. She said that CUNY does offer quality education. Many graduates have been accepted to Ivy League schools afterwards. She emphasized the fact that there are honors classes and the fact that there is Macaulay Central, in which Macaulay students will be able to take special classes. It sounds good to me so far, but it is still not clear to me whether or not Macaulay honors students will be sufficiently challenged.</p>
