Events and Traditions

The University’s tremendous history of pride and spirit has been reflected throughout the decades with campus-wide events and programs. So join in, have fun, and be a part of New York University’s events and traditions.  

Incoming students, parents, or University alumni, you are welcome to return to campus for events throughout the year, engaging you in celebrating culture, academic endeavor, and just plain fun. 

Remembering the past and where we came from grounds us as a community and an institution and where we are today.  Embrace the history of this great university and take part in our traditional events through out the year. We are always looking for new ideas and new students.  Bring your friends along and join in the fun of keeping these rich traditions alive on campus. 

Where to start? The offices that run these events are always looking for students to join the committees that run these special events and traditions.  Stop by the Office of the Vice President for Student Affairs or contact the Student Resource Center for more information.
