    [off topic?]

    I live in New York City. One of my friends used to teach an art history course at the4 College of Staten Island.

    She once told me that she’d had students who’d never travelled the 12 miles to get to the Metropolitan Museum of Art in Manhattan. The Met is considered one of the top museums in the world, but going there was too much hassle

      I mean, from SI to Manhattan, you either need to take a ferry or come into Bayonne, so that’s a whole thing. Then again, I’ll admit, I prefer the Cloisters to the main Met.
