Just so everyone knows, when Il Douche said that 45000 students were attending SUNY campuses free under his Excelsior plan, he lied. Fewer than 22000 are attending free under that plan. The rest are attending free thanks to traditional aid like Pell grants and TAP. And the state has yet to actually reimburse those in the Excelsior program who paid tuition upfront to avoid late fees and registration cancellation.
