The Baruch College diploma sample spells out “The Bernard M. Baruch College” in large serif type, with “The City University of New York” directly beneath it. The award text gives the faculty and the CUNY Board of Trustees distinct roles: the faculty recommends the award, and the Board confers the degree.
