CITY COLLEGE–Maurizio Trevisan had been the Dean of the CUNY School of Medicine since the Fall 2011 semester at City College. On February 1, 2018, Trevisan resigned from his position after a long battle with the CUNY administration over a budget deal for the School of Medicine.
“As some of you may know, I have a profound disagreement with the CUNY administration with regard to the financial matters of the school and the bureaucratic and administrative challenges that are seriously jeopardizing our ability to grow and to pursue our ultimate goal: full accreditation,” wrote Trevisan in an email to the School of Medicine community.
