CUNY - College of Staten Island - English Language Institute
CUNY - College of Staten Island: The English Language Institute (ELI) of the Center for Global Engagement has offered innovative academic programs for students learning English as a Second Language since the late 1970’s. Our course of study is designed to challenge and engage students. Students are immersed in the language, culture, and ethnicity of New York City. Classes range from beginner to the advanced level.
When we say that "it is high time that," we mean that something should have already happened a long time ago. For example: "It is high time that they introduced themselves. They moved next door three weeks ago."
When we say that "every dog has its day," we mean that everyone gets his or her chance to succeed to do something eventually. Example: He will get that promotion some day. Every dog has its day.
