How We Started?
In the Summer of ’23 Amy Ramson, Helen Chang, Kate Lyons and Krystyna Michael from Hostos Community College created this site and reached out to other CUNY campuses where faculty did COIL projects, in order to grow and scale up the Open Module Library.
Who Are We?
There are currently five CUNY campuses who work collaboratively on the Open COIL initiative– The Borough of Manhattan Community College (BMCC), Guttman Community College, Hostos Community College, LaGuardia Community College and Queens College. Please reach out to your campus representive with your interest and questions.
