Def Jam Records

In the early 1980s, Rick Rubin, co-founder of Def Jam Records, lived in Room 712 of NYU's Weinstein Residence Hall on University Place, where he collaborated with Russell Simmons on what is now one of hip hop's most influential record labels.

CTE supports faculty and graduate student teaching at New York University. CTE organizes workshops, offers individual feedback and consultation services, and provides other practical resources to members of the NYU community to enhance their effectiveness in the classroom and laboratory.

The center's programs and services treat teaching as serious intellectual work that is integrally related to, and supportive of, the research conducted by faculty, and approach college courses as windows on, and expressions of, the way faculty define and practice their disciplines and inter-disciplines.

CTE also promotes an ongoing, university-wide discussion about teaching and learning matters, striving both to facilitate and contribute to that conversation. Diversity in teaching and learning and the employment of technology in teaching are among the special, recurrent priorities for that discussion.
