  • Unexpected Charges Leave Students Distrustful of Courtesy Meals Program
    4 CULTURE 9 OPINION This First-Year Finds Community Courtesy Meals Shouldn’t Come in Cooking at a Price 6 ARTS 10 SPORTS Charly Bliss Comes of Age, Led by Judo at NYU, a Balancing Act Clive Davis Alumna VOLUME LIII | ISSUE 12 MONDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 2019 Unexpected Charges Leave Students Distrustful of Courtesy Meals Program Some of those who used the Courtesy Meals Program found funds from their financial aid diverted to covering its cost. By VICTOR PORCELLI News Editor The Courtesy Meals Program, which is supposed to be free, affected some financially vulnerable stu- dents’ aid packages this week, leading to confusion and distrust of the program. The CMP provides students with Dining Dol- lars — and, as of recently, meal swipes — to ensure they don’t go hungry. However, a small group of users received an email from the Office of Financial Aid on Wednesday notifying them that their finan- cial aid packages would be adjusted due to their use of the program. Student government Chairperson and Gallatin se- nior Jakiyah Bradley previously served as a Senator at- Large for food-insecure students. Bradley first learned about the policy change through a constituent, but saw Instagram stories drawing attention to it being widely circulated by students. Bradley said immedi- ately after hearing about students’ financial aid being affected, she brought the issue to administrators who said they would begin working to resolve it. One of the first to post it to their story, Steinhardt senior Elaine Cao had $150 taken out of their work- study to go toward the CMP.

  • NYU's Hip-Hop and Pedagogy Initiative
    NYU's Hip-Hop and Pedagogy Initiative International, Multi-cultural, Cultural, Gender, LGBTQ, Spirituality, Disability and related category Richard Chavolla Director, Center for Multicultural Education and Programs Marcella Runell Hall Associate Director, Center for Multicultural Education and Programs Executive Summary Recognizing New York University’s mission of public service and the Division of Student Affairs hallmarks of learning, diversity, and community, the Center for Multicultural Education and Programs (aka, the Center) created the Hip-Hop and Pedagogy Initiative in the fall of 2007. The Initiative began after a successful Welcome Week Event focused on hip-hop and education, and later grew into a working pedagogy group comprised of NYU faculty, administrators and staff, which eventually included community based non-profit leaders, graduate and undergraduate students. The Initiative serves as an umbrella for the NYU community for hip-hop programming and events, and offers cutting edge resources and referrals for academic based hip-hop courses and trainings. The breadth of student learning and addressing critical campus needs through this initiative prove ingeniously expansive. As can be expected, the diversity of students that are drawn to, contribute to, and benefit from the many expressions of the Hip-Hop and Pedagogy Initiative serve as an example of the truly intercultural experiences we wish to provide in education. At any given program or in any given classroom of the Initiative, you will find students of all social identities, representing the full spectrum of experiences and communities related to socio-economic class, race, gender, sexual orientation, religious faith, language and much more, with a continuous intersection of these identities in intentional modes of intellectual exploration and communication.
