What Does BC Receive in the Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act?

Of the $455 Million in Federal funds to CUNY in the CRRSAA - the followup to the CARES Act - BC receives $31.2 Million. Of this total, $8.8 Million must be spent on direct aid to students, leaving $22.4 Million useable to cover "lost revenue, reimbursement for expenses already incurred, technology costs associated with a transition to distance education, faculty and staff trainings, and payroll.” 

Amounts below were determined by the number of Pell grant recipients at each college.
