City Hall hopeful Bill de Blasio was a much scruffier dude back in his college days, with a hairdo almost as distinctive as son Dante’s Afro, a beard to match and a far-away gaze.
This NYU yearbook photo of “Bill Wilhelm,” as he was known before legally taking his mother’s maiden name, indicates that ties were not in style among the school’s activist set.
Among the issues tackled in the early ’80s by the now-Democratic candidate was challenging Board of Trustees tuition hikes and protesting federal financial aid cuts.
He also castigated the operators of the Three Mile Island nuclear reactor — three years after the accident — for being “ignorant.”
A 1984 graduate, de Blasio went on to support the left-wing Sandinistas in Nicaragua and honeymoon in Cuba.
