On February 10, 1961, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. delivered a speech on civil rights, equity and nonviolence on the campus of New York University. The NYU community commemorates Dr. King's visit and his leadership with a weeklong series of events and programs.

This year's theme was "Connect, Collaborate, Change..." Some of the week's highlights included a University-wide marquee event, announcement of the recipient of the NYU MLK Award for Community Service, featured keynote speaker, lectures, student performances, film screenings, community service projects and so much more.
