The piece in 24 HOURS is close but no cigar.
City Inspector Elliott deBarros states he found a public art gallery at THE CINEFORUM. He did not.
In his letter to my landlord he states:
From: firstname.lastname@example.com
CC: firstname.lastname@example.com
Subject: 463 Bathurst St. (Zoning Notice)
Date: Mon, 11 Jul 2016 19:45:34 +0000
To whom it may concern,
I am a Property Standards Officer with the Municipal Licensing & Standards Dept. of the City of Toronto. As a result of an investigation commenced after receiving a public complaint I have issued the Zoning Notice of Violation attached to this message. As I am sure you are aware the property is zoned as "single-family residential", however, is currently being used as a form of "public art gallery" which is a non-permitted use under the City of Toronto Zoning By-law. I have met with your tenant, Mr. R. Hartt, and discussed the specific use with him and advised him of the need to have the Planning Dept. formally approve of the current use through the submission of a Preliminary Project Review application which he has formally declined to prepare. I have reason to believe that the property continues to be used on a frequent basis as other than a "single family residential dwelling" and is subject to triggering the issuance of a summons to court for both the property owner and the gallery operator.
Should you have any questions or concerns please do not hesitate to contact me.
Elliott deBarros (firstname.lastname@example.com)
In an earlier correspondence deBarros wrote: "I was hoping that you would re-consider submitting a Preliminary Project Review application as this would be the first step in preventing any further complaints being filed concerning the use of the property. If you are absolutely opposed to doing so I would like to remind you that I have no option but to issue a formal Zoning Notice by the end of this week."
This last about issuing a formal Zoning Notice I found surprising as not only had he and I agreed when we met that my use of the space is within City Bylaws but also Metro Licensing & Standards had itself expressed that conclusion previously.
Two pieces from THE TORONTO STAR:
There is an error in the editorial.
- "The city, sicced on Hartt by someone who apparently hates his ubiquitous posters." The person behind the complaint (who has admitted to being their author) may hate my posters but that is not his reason. runs a street postering business. THE SUPREME COURT OF CANADA, in the Ramsden Decision defended Street Postering as "FREEDOM OF SPEECH FOR PEOPLE WITHOUT ACCESS TO MAINSTREAM MEDIA ( https://scc-csc.lexum.com/scc-csc/scc-csc/en/item/1038/index.do , https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ramsden_v_Peterborough_(City_of) ). In the operation of that business he consistently ignores the city's street postering bylaws ( http://www1.toronto.ca/wps/portal/contentonly?vgnextoid=08cb83cf89870410VgnVCM10000071d60f89RCRD&vgnextchannel=2f5b19f155cb0410VgnVCM10000071d60f89RCRD , http://www.toronto.ca/311/knowledgebase/43/101000044643.html , http://www1.toronto.ca/City%20Of%20Toronto/Municipal%20Licensing%20&%20Standards/1-Files/PDFs/postering101bookmark_final.pdf). This person has also put up anonymous posters smearing myself and others.

TORONTO STAR Editorial …The city should leave Cineforum alone:
Reg Hartt's Cineforum is an indie institution that Torontonians, and city hall, should cherish.
Tues., June 28, 2016: The city should drop its misguided fight against Reg Hartt.
For generations of a certain kind of Toronto film buff, Reg Hartt and the cinema-cum-salon he runs out of his rented Victorian on Bathurst Ave., below College, are institutions. Hartt's little art house is among the stranger, crustier corners of the city's cultural community, a place where cinephiles have gathered for more than two decades to watch and discuss the classics, from Luis Bunuel to Buster Keaton, Bela Lugosi and beyond.
But despite its cult status, the so-called Cineforum's days may now be numbered. The city, sicced on Hartt by someone who apparently hates his ubiquitous posters, says he is in violation of zoning bylaws and must apply to recategorize his place as a public art gallery. That's an expensive, time-consuming process, and Hartt, who is 70, says he's not up to it.
The city should retreat and allow this indie institution to continue making its cultural contribution. It wouldn't be the first time. In 2010, the Cineforum faced shuttering on similar grounds, but received a last-minute reprieve from an unlikely saviour: Rob Ford, ever ready to answer a constituent's call. The first time the city came after the cinema, in the 1990s, an intervention from Hartt's old friend and champion Jane Jacobs, the late influential urban theorist, saved the day.
It's no wonder Jacobs was an advocate of Hartt's. Though the eccentric impresario has a reputation as an ornery figure, occasionally combative in defence of his work, the Cineforum has done no harm, and is not likely to. Rather, by providing a free forum for curious Torontonians to consume and talk about art, it has in its modest way enriched the cultural life of the city. Any law that would erase this unique landmark on purely bureaucratic grounds is an ass of exactly the sort Jacobs fought so fiercely against.
A long-time Torontonian, Jacobs once wrote that big cities provide "what otherwise could be given only by traveling; namely, the strange." Toronto, perhaps more than most metropolises, derives its greatness in this way, from the interweaving of its disparate parts. Jacobs worked much of her life to protect urban places, including ours, from paternalistic regulations that snuff out a city's spirit by displacing the small, idiosyncratic thing in favour, inevitably, of a big, generic one.
The city government claims to revere Jacobs' thinking. It should honour her – and her ideas – by leaving her favourite oddball cinema and cineaste alone. Toronto without the Cineforum would be ever-so-slightly less Toronto.
Cineforum deserves a happy ending
Reg Hartt has run film and lecture presentations out of his living room for 20 years — and now the city is trying to shut him down
Edward Keenan Star Touch
I finally watched a film in Reg Hartt's living room theatre this week. Visiting his "Cineforum" is a Toronto indie tradition I've meant to participate in ever since I first saw, decades ago, his posters on lampposts for "The Sex and Violence Cartoon Festival" and screenings of Nosferatu and of Salvador Dali films. I thought recently I might never get the chance to actually go, since city officials, once again, seem intent on shutting him down.
Why would they do that? The place is a boho civic treasure: As Hartt will tell you, the Lonely Planet travel guide lists the "off the wall experience" of Cineforum as one of the top entertainment attractions in Toronto, and the late Jane Jacobs was an enthusiastic member of his audience and vocal advocate of his work.
He's been showing films and giving talks to accompany them in Toronto since the 1970s, at first in rented theatres and bars. In 1992, a bartender gave him some grief during one of his presentations, so Hartt moved the whole crowd to his living room down the street. Since then, he's hosted them there.
Earlier this month, the now 70-year-old Hartt announced that the Cineforum is dead. The reason? Toronto's government issued him a notice that they consider him in violation of zoning regulations, as they say he's running a "public art gallery" in his home. Hartt insists he is not running a public art gallery, and has never run one. Instead, "The Cineforum, indeed the whole house, is itself a work of art, a living breathing work of art," Hartt says.
That it is. One afternoon this week, Hartt met me on the front steps of his rented Victorian house on Bathurst St. south of College, filming my approach on a handheld 3D camera. Inside his living room/dining room, decorated with monster masks and movie posters and filled with rolling office chairs, he hands me a pair of glasses and shows me on the big screen what I look like in three dimensions, while giving me a bit of history on the development of the technology and some discussion of the meaning of the name of God in the Old Testament.
Then he screens a 2004 Jane Jacobs documentary, stopping it frequently to talk about his study of her ideas — observations that frequently digress into disquisitions on civic governance, the I Ching, Christianity, Judaism, film and animation history, Ancient Greece, pedagogy, his own biography, the past and future of newspapers, and many other topics. He's self-taught, like Jacobs was, and he's skeptical about the value of classroom education.
Onscreen, Jacobs is heaping scorn on the classroom-educated urban planners she encountered when she started writing. They wanted a city that is "neat, clean, orderly; quick to understand," she says. But cities and urban economies don't work that way, and can't. They are complex ecosystems, she says, webs of messy, disorderly interactions.
"It's such a simple and obvious conclusion, it's amazing anybody would object to it," Hartt says.
This point is not unrelated to Hartt's current troubles. His Cineforum is a tribute to the virtues of the unplanned, the uncorporate, the uncertified, the unregulated. What a treasure to live in a place where a character like Hartt can make a place for his passions and his art and where anyone can go and share them.
Cities, Jacobs says onscreen, need to fight everything that keeps people from "developing their own work." A city economy, like the weather, "is making itself up as it goes along."
Yet city regulators cannot figure out how to leave Hartt alone to develop his work. Standards officers asked him to apply for a zoning review to categorize his place as a public art gallery, a process that requires all kinds of fees and architectural drawings to complete. "I would ask that you check-in with the Planning Dept. and/or an individual familiar with municipal law prior to using the property in any manner other than a residential dwelling," property standards officer Elliot deBarros wrote in notifying him that he and his landlord were being cited for a bylaw violation.
They came after him before, in 2010, until then-mayor Rob Ford intervened. Now, they have once again decided he's a problem.
It's not just this, of course. In this city, signs posted in the park tell you a permit is required to play Frisbee. In this city, immigrant kids trying to throw a skating party near Jane and Finch have to cancel because they don't have two million bucks in insurance.
Maybe it's a miracle Hartt's been able to continue this long.
Fighting to save his work, he says, is fighting to "seize the moment to turn Toronto into a Jane Jacobs city."
Hartt says Cineforum is dead. But he'll continue giving presentations this summer at his house — posters he put up toward the end of the week just gave the address at 463 Bathurst, without mentioning a name. And he says he'll continue to fight to save his work of art, his home. He tells me he invites people to come see the Shroud of Turin replica he has in his hall, elaborating on what it shows as a 3D rendering of the post-crucifixion body of Jesus.
What he is doing here, Hartt says, inviting people into his home, is testifying to his beliefs, practicing his faith. In response to that line of argument, deBarros from property standards wrote that use of his home as a place of worship "in whole or in part" is "a violation of the city's Zoning By-Law."
"Are you saying that under the city bylaws I am not allowed to practice my faith in my home?" Hartt wrote back.
I don't know about faith and all that. But my own belief system says that if a law forbids Hartt to give film and lecture presentations here, it's a bad law.
Toronto's government constantly proclaims its belief in the Gospel of Jane Jacobs. But they can't see the value in the kind of fascinating, eccentric home Hartt keeps. Instead, they try to shut him down in the very year they are loudly celebrating the 100th anniversary of Jacobs' birth. If they understood the first thing about Jacobs' work, they would let Hartt continue to develop his own.

|April 24, 1982
(aged 55)
Moscow, Soviet Union
|Years active
Alexey Ekimyan (Armenian: Ալեքսեյ Հեքիմյան, Russian: Алексей Гургенович Экимян) also Alexey Gurgenovich Hekimyan (April 10, 1927 – April 24, 1982) was a famous Armenian-Russian composer, and author of popular songs. Ekimyan was also a General of Soviet militsia (police) and was the head of Criminal Investigation Department of Moscow region. He was considered the only popular composer in the world who ruled a law-enforcement department at the same time.[1] Ekimyan awarded by the "Renowned Master of the Arts" Armenian SSR official title.
Born in Baku, Ekimyan's first song for the Moscow International Festival (1957) was approved by Vano Muradeli ("I don't know if you would become a general, but you would become a composer!"[2]). His songs were performed and recorded by prominent Soviet singers that include Lyudmila Zykina ("I don't need another love"), Iosif Kobzon, Lusine Zakaryan, Muslim Magomayev ("Save the friends"), Sofia Rotaru, Vakhtang Kikabidze, Ruben Matevosian ("Gharabaghtsin"). Among his most famous songs are- "Listopad", "Vsya jizn' vperedi", "Sonjachnyj doshh", "Odinochestvo" (written by poets Robert Rozhdestvensky, Rasul Gamzatov, and others). Aram Khachaturian wrote: "The melodies of Ekimyan are amazingly beautiful, expressive, plastic and always natural".[2] Some hits by Ekimyan were chosen for the "Song of the Year" all-Soviet festivals during the 1970s-'80s.[3]
The documentary film-concert "Paths of My Memory" (1979, 27 min.)[4] by Yerevan Studio is dedicated to the Alexey Ekimyan. His "Do not be sad" hit was used as a songtrack for the "Nu Pogodi" Soviet animated film series.
Ekimyan suffered a heart attack and died on April 24, 1982 in Moscow. He is buried in Yerevan, Armenia.
Ekimyan was married to Valentina Karpova with which had two sons, Rafael and Michael. Rafael went on to become Section Chief of the Regional Department of organized crime within Headquarters of Internal Affairs of Moscow Region. While Michael became a famous composer for the Moscow Circus.

Emmanuel College has announced that it will no longer require the SAT or ACT of applicants for admission. "This test-optional policy reinforces the college's commitment to understand a student's overall academic experience, regardless of performance on a single test," said a statement from the college. "In addition, it encourages all students who have achieved success in high school to consider Emmanuel."
Study finds that government grants have a positive impact on the graduation rates of low-income students, but unsubsidized loans counter that impact.
This is the time of year that colleges and universities release their acceptance rates, and those of Ivy League universities get lower each year, prompting much discussion and angst. Wonkblog at The Washington Post, however, argues that there are long odds for lots of things that people want, and that elite college admissions aren't quite so unique in American society. For example, while only 8.9 percent of all applicants were admitted to Ivy League institutions, only 2.6 percent of those who applied to work at Walmart's new Washington store were hired. And Google hires one half of one percent of its applicants.
The blog's analysis: "Parents and students - particularly those from a certain socio-economic background -- tend to obsess a lot over the college admissions process. The danger, of course, is that this single-minded focus on preparing kids for college -- the extra-curriculars, test prep, admissions coaching, and the like -- is coming at the expense of prepping them for the job market hurdles that come after."
A new study by College Board researchers and published in Educational Evaluation and Policy Analysis finds that Maine saw an increase in college-going rates after requiring all high school students to take the SAT. Statewide, the requirement was linked in the study to a 2-3 percentage point increase in the college-going rate of those graduating from Maine high schools. Of those who based on various patters otherwise were found unlikely to have taken the SAT, about 10 percent who would not have gone to four-year institutions did so.
ACT has reported similar findings in Colorado and Illinois, following statewide use of the ACT.
Robert Schaeffer, public education director of the National Center for Fair & Open Testing, a critic of the College Board, said via email that even if the results of the Maine experiment are positive, that doesn't mean that the test is a good thing. "An unanswered question is how much of the apparent increase in college going (a good thing) is attributable to taking the test and how much results from the process of thinking about higher education, signing up for the exam (especially filling out the Student Descriptive Questionnaire which provides tons of academic and demographics data admissions offices use for recruitment), getting mail from schools, etc.," he said.
A dean's list student at Hannibal-LaGrange University who withdrew due to illness in October says he was blocked from returning because he is gay, the Associated Press reported. During the time he was away from the university, he came out on Facebook, and he said that university officials explained their refusal to re-enroll him by pointing him to a morals clause at the Baptist institution that describes homosexuality as a "misuse of God's gift." The student noted that others who violate rules related to sex are permitted to stay enrolled. He said he was told that, to return, he would have to renounce homosexuality. The university declined to comment.
During January's White House opportunity summit, policy makers and higher education leaders announced over 100 new initiatives designed to bolster first-generation and low-income students' college success. While students who overcome the odds to gain access to college bring with them significant grit and resilience, the road through college is often a rocky one.
First Lady Michelle Obama described the obstacles that first-generation and low-income students commonly confront. No stranger to these challenges, she said:
You're in a whole new world. You might have trouble making friends because you don't see any peers who come from a background like yours. You might be worried about paying for classes, and food, and room and board because you have never had to set your own budget before. You might be feeling guilty when you call home because Mom and Dad are wondering why you didn't get a job so you could help support their family. Those are the kinds of obstacles these kids are facing right from day one.
Even among the select group that make it to college, first-generation and low-income students, on average, find it harder to fit in, receive lower grades, and drop out at higher rates than do students from higher income backgrounds with college-educated parents (i.e., continuing-generation students). Study after study demonstrates that the financial, academic, and psychological barriers that these students encounter can significantly undermine their performance.
The summit shined the national policy spotlight on this persistent social class achievement gap. Our own and others' research shows that these feelings of exclusion and difference that the First Lady described are key factors that fuel the gap. While all students tend to question whether they belong and have what it takes to succeed, these concerns are magnified for first-generation and low-income students because of the mismatch they experience as they enter this "whole new world" of higher education.
More needs to be done on campuses to raise awareness about how college environments can be unfamiliar and unwelcoming places to students who do not hail from middle and upper class worlds. Efforts to do just that are cropping up — from Massachusetts Institute of Technology to Northwestern University to Stanford University — at colleges and universities across the nation.
Our research provides compelling evidence that talking about social class equips first-generation and low-income students to succeed. In our recent study, published in Psychological Science, we invited first-generation and continuing-generation students at the beginning of the school year to attend a one-hour program designed to help them transition to college. Unbeknownst to them, half of the students attended a "difference-education" program while the other half attended a "standard" program. In both programs, newly minted first-years at an elite university listened to a diverse panel of junior and senior students talk about their transition to college, challenges they faced, and how they found success. In the difference-education program, however, panelists' stories also included a discussion of how their social class backgrounds mattered in college. In the standard program, panelists did not reveal their social class.
We found that the difference-education program closed the achievement gap between first- and continuing-generation students. First-generation students had higher year-end grade-point averages and better learned to take advantage of college resources that could help them succeed — like seeking mentorship and extra help from professors — than their peers that participated in the standard program. An added bonus was that all students who participated in the difference-education program — both first- and continuing-generation — gained a deeper understanding of how students' diverse backgrounds and perspectives mattered in college than their peers in the standard program. They also experienced a smoother college transition — they were less stressed, felt like they fit in socially, and were more connected to their home and school.
When we talk with educators and administrators about the success of this research, many are inspired to start a program like ours and reap the rewards; yet, they also voice trepidation. What happens if talking about social class leads students to feel threatened? What if students are not receptive to the message? What if we get accused of stereotyping or stigmatizing students because of their backgrounds?
These are understandable concerns. Talking about difference is threatening to many people, especially since Americans don't like to talk about social class. Drawing on key insights from social psychology and multicultural education, engaging students in a conversation about how their different backgrounds matter can be instructive and empowering for all involved. But, you need to do it in the right way. Below we outline key guidelines that educators should follow:
Colleges and universities have a responsibility to prepare students for success in our increasingly diverse and multicultural world. When done the right way, transitional programs have the potential to help to make this "whole new world" of higher education a less alienating, and more welcoming place, for all students — especially for those who need it the most.

During his trial, it was revealed that Martoma was kicked out of law school at Harvard University for falsifying transcript grades, and Martoma didn't report this to Stanford when he was applying there. Stanford applicants sign a statement saying that offers of admission can be revoked for certain actions, such as "a serious lack of judgment or integrity" prior to enrolling. As a result, Stanford has now revoked his offer of admission, which has the impact of making his degree invalid.

Get your free trial now at https://www.worketc.com.
- Integrated CRM, projects, billing, help desk, timesheets, calendars, and more
- 100% native Android experience
- Get an instant view of what you're working on and what you have scheduled through the main dashboard
- Optimized contacts module with custom field support
- Keep track of any contact's activity, including correspondence, through the extensive activity stream
- Keep threaded, forum-style discussions started on the web app going even when you're out of the office
- Snap a picture and attach it to a contact, project, or expense
- Quickly view running timers on the Android notifications screen
I wanted location independence for my business and this app was the clincher that sold me on using WorkETC for my entire business operations. VERY well done, and I'm in the mobile app manufacturing business myself! The learning curve for the entire system is rough, but worth the pain. The Support from this company is over the top amazing. (But you will need them to get started...)
All information is in one place, accessible day or night. Remote online management of employees is now possible centrally, with seamless scheduling and no need for long-winded telephone conversation
We are using WORKetc primarily as CRM and project management tool. This product allow us to keep close contact with our clients and manage our internal web development projects. The Android mobile app makes it easy to quickly add new items (tasks, contacts, leads) right from the front page of the app, which is exactly what you want on a mobile version of a service like this. It does provide most of the functionality of the desktop version too - If I am out of the office and need to respond to a customer, the application makes this very easy, and as a result helps improve customer response time.
This app lets me work even while I sipping coffee in the coffee shop. I am a lawyer and it's really useful in court when I need to access case information. It's great.
the app is easy to use. I am on the go I can create a time sheet on the fly. I attach tasks directly to the client. I can upload expense receipts from my phone directly to my project. I take a few minutes to complete my tasks instead of having to head back to the office and regroup and complete the tasks. the app makes the process much more efficient. I also like that when I exit out of the app it does not stay open, I must reenter my password, thus protecting my clients and myself. I like that my recent activities are the first screen I see. It keeps me current as my teammates enter their activities and we move the company forward and on track.
OK - So I am updating my review because this latest release fixed a lot of the issues I was having. I think the performance issues I have now are due to my device, because when nothing else is running - this app rocks and is fast. Great for on the go updates while at my clients office. I use this on my android tablet and prefer it to using the iphone app on my ipad - although doable. Great updates - keep them coming!

SocGen Said Close to Selling EU800 Million of Mortgages to Axa
Societe Generale SA, France's second-largest bank, is close to selling about 800 million euros ($994 million) of mortgage loans to Axa SA's real-estate unit, said two people with knowledge of the matter.
The French bank may sell the mortgages, mostly secured against French and German property, to the unit of Paris-based Axa at a discount of less than 10 percent, said the people, who asked not to be identified because the matter is confidential.
Societe Generale, led by Chief Executive Officer Frederic Oudea, is among European banks trimming balance sheets to comply with stricter capital rules. The Paris-based company sold 7.7 billion euros of loan portfolios in the first half, with a 5 percent average discount, the bank said Aug. 1.
Officials for Societe Generale and Axa Real Estate, the property unit of Europe's second-largest insurer, declined to comment.
Axa's real-estate division raised 2 billion euros in February to invest in debt in European countries including France and Germany. Axa's division will invest "primarily" in senior debt backed by prime properties, it said Feb. 27.

Campus Quality:
There are a lot of options for student life. There are the dining halls, the student lounges that are everywhere and most importantly washington square park is almost like NYU's quad and you can always find lots of students there!
At New York University they pride themselves on their teachers, many of who have gained much favor in their academic areas. However, like all university's, not all the professors are up to par which can be difficult, though these professors tend to remain at low-level subjects.
Campus Food:
There are lots of options in Campus Dining. They have vegan and vegetarian options galore and plenty of normal dishes as well. They even have homemade sushi at one of the residence halls!
No parking. Walk to the school if you live nearby or take the subway.
Greek Life:
greek life is basically nonexistant; but there are greek type clubs, however, nothing like you would see at normal colleges; NYU has a med school greek fraternity and pre law also;
Guys & Girls:
lots of gay guys; many attractive girls looking for alot of straight guys; large amount of floor incest;
great academic programs, such as speaking freely which can teach you over 50 free languages; could still use more options in certain departments such as neur & history
pretty good; lots of course options; wish at times there were more specific ones;
I am very happy I chose Gallatin. If I could change anything it would be course selections. For instance, only now in my junior year do I realize i am super interested in physics and wish i could have taken more courses in it, instead of so many cultural studies classes I took. But that's the beauty of Gallatin: always being shown new studies as you progress. I'm not too sure about my career goals. I love studio art, but of course it's not a very easy career to get into. I suppose I'm pretty concerned but I know my creativity will always be able to help me find some type of job. Gallatin is also great with finding internships. Lots of my friends have awesome internships at record labels, magazines, tv stations, so they got nothing to sweat about!
Campus Food:
The dining halls are really only nice for convenience. With most of the meal plans you end up spending approx. $15 for each meal, which is TOTALLY not worth it. You could get a pretty decent restaurant meal for that much. So it really is just the convenience of these places being scattered around Washington square that makes it nice. The quality of dining halls is pretty normal for a college, but it's just not worth $15 when you have lots of other options at your fingertips.
A Little of Each, a Lot of Others – Although you will probably find a person from almost every corner of the earth at NYU the percentages seem somewhat unbalanced. The majority is middle class white kids, but that doesn't mean you can't find other groups. NYU has many ethnic clubs and organizations. You will also meet diverse crowds just in your day-to-day experience. Last year I had a girl from Guam live across the hall from me!
Not Too Necessary, but There If You Need It. There is a variety of options with transportation. The subway system is excellent and relatively cheap. Taxis will be a bit pricier unless you travel with four people and not too far. NYU also offers Public Safety Ride which is like a taxi but I think they'll only do it after a certain time. There is also the bus system of NYU which takes students from campus to dorms scattered throughout the city, but it has a strange schedule I have heard. It is pretty easy to get to JFK. You could just take a taxi (easiest), but there is also the subway to Jamaica and then AirTrain to the airport.
Subway lines make it very easy to travel, even from the farthest dorms. The bus service is pretty convenient as well--buses usually come by every 15 minutes. Walking is the obvious mode of transportation. Most dorms have under a 15 minute walk to campus.
NYU is located in the center of the hustle and bustle of the city. You have easy access to the subway as well as city buses. I would recommend using Hopstop.com to figure out any directions int he city using public transportation
Campus Housing:
It's definitely convenient to live on-campus since the dorms are all relatively close to campus, and things like not having to worry about rent, utilities, toilet paper, etc. are nice because it's one less things to worry about. That being said, sometimes living off-campus is more cost-effective that dorming at NYU, but there are the tradeoffs like finding a place and sub-letting it, etc. if you're going away. I like the dorms overall though
The easiest way to get around NYC is via the subway. There's a subway stop in the NYU area which makes it easy to get from class to internship/, job, etc. There's also an NYU shuttle bus that goes from the farther-away dorms to campus, but I've heard mixed reviews about it.
Party Scene:
Nightlife is fantastic... if you are 21 or if you have a fake. Otherwise you're basically screwed. I came into school not expecting to get a fake, because access to alcohol is so easy and there are quite a few liquor stores that don't even card. But it's not the problem of getting alcohol- its going out. Since NYU doesn't really have a frat/sorority scene, all "parties" take place off campus or in bars/clubs. Going out on the weekend usually involves going bar hopping.
subway and buses are, of course, very accesible. However the NYU transportation has its moments depending on the dorm. My dorm, Greenwich Hotel, tends to have a bus that comes fairly infrequently which can be a problem for early morning classes. Also the bus doesn't always show up for the time it is scheduled to . The buses for the other dormsare fairly reliable though.
The weather varies throughout the year. It has been pretty good the past few years, and there were not many difficulties going to and from school. The past couple of years we had a couple of bad hurricanes and a couple of noreasters. This effected going to and from school for a couple of days but the school recovered for the most part and classes resumed.
The many campuses of NYU have a wide range of different ethnic groups of people. They make up the many specialized courses of study offered at the university. The university is great at connecting the many people from various backgrounds and programs to meet and greet through the many alumni and social events offered throughout the year. The school is outstanding in reaching out the their students at all phases of their lives - whether they are at the start of their career paths or midway or at the end or near retirement.
The computers are always upgraded. The wifi can be slow sometimes because the amount of students that are using it all at once. It is best to bring your own laptop.
Health & Safety:
New York University provides students with the utmost safety anyone could ever expect
There is of course a lot of "diversity" at NYU, but there is a considerably larger ethnic group than others that tends to skew the perception of the student body.
It's Manhattan- you get all kinds of weather, but the city and school cleans up after. Washington Square park is beautiful in all seasons, but spring is definitely the best.
Campus Food:
The food is fine, but you're in New York City, one of the world's culinary capitals. Put some money on your card, because almost anywhere around NYU takes it, even McDonalds on Broadway. Forget the meal plan and just make a separate food account in your expenses.
{{review.SectionLabel}} at {{review.EntityName}}:
Sorry, there are no reviews.
NYU offers students a taste of the hustle and bustle they will most likely encounter in the real world once they graduate. It is an overpopulated institution, so you have to be ready to fight to gain certain academic opportunities, but cultivating such a habit may serve as indirect training for new graduates when they have to go about securing jobs in their respective fields. Life at NYU demands a certain kind of disposition; thus, it is not for everyone. For students who love NYC and the challenge and experience it offers, it is an exciting and ever-changing community. For those who desire a community-rich college experience, NYU is lacking in that area. However, you can make an amazing experience out of what the school does offer. Whatever your choice, get ready for a mix of demanding academics and wild experiences in the city. Finding a balance between the two is key at this big-city school.
Many students claim that the best part about attending NYU is living in New York City, while other students complain about the school's large tuition. Most often, students are dissatisfied with the lack of a campus or school spirit, and many students believe that the institution is run too much like a business, with the school using millions of dollars to make NYU a global institution instead of supporting its current students. Otherwise, most students appreciate the various benefits of living in the city, such as diverse and exciting nightlife options, a broad range of cuisines, and prestigious and diverse internship opportunities.
