In memory of Suzie Schuyler, our beloved President. She will be deeply missed.

March 8, 2026

It is with profound sadness that the Henry George School of Social Science announces the passing of our beloved President, Suzie Schuyler, on March 8, 2026.

Suzie was a remarkable leader, a devoted champion of this School's mission, and a cherished member of our community. Her passion for education, her generosity of spirit, and her unwavering commitment to the Henry George School of Social Science inspired all who had the privilege of knowing and working alongside her.

During her leadership, Suzie brought warmth, wisdom, and quiet determination to everything she did. She cared deeply about the people around her and about carrying forward the ideas and educational work that define this institution. Her vision guided the School through consequential moments, and her absence will be felt profoundly by our board, our staff, and the supporters whose lives she touched.

We extend our deepest condolences to Suzie's family and friends, and to all who were fortunate enough to share in her life.

Her legacy will endure in the work we carry on in her memory.

What Would Henry George Say?

By Dr. Marty Rowland

AOC is radical and that is OK. However, she is not radical enough; not as radical as Henry George was. In Saez and Zucman’s article on AOC, they make a good case for higher marginal tax rates to address inequality of wealth distribution. But to do that is like using a meat cleaver to chop a cocktail wiener. There is a huge difference between wealth created from rent seeking (speculation) and honest capitalist profit. There is plenty of wealth to be had squeezing ground rent out of the economy in a bustling metropolis without any need to tax incomes. So should the marginal tax rate be 90% or 0% for incomes? I say 0% but collect 100% of ground rent. Reward productivity, give everybody an immediate 30% boost in wages, and pay for needed infrastructure.
