After a year of negotiations with warring parties at the Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science and Art, New York State’s attorney general, Eric T. Schneiderman, is expected on Wednesday to announce that his office has crafted a settlement that would end litigation and create an independent monitor of the college’s management and finances. The agreement, which could also lead to restoring Cooper Union’s tradition of free tuition, was seen by all parties as a compromise that they believed would end the turmoil that has hurt the college’s reputation and “help preserve Cooper Union as a national treasure.”
