The Best THAT’S in US in SERVICE to a NOBLE PURPOSE.” “IT’S ABOUT INVESTING the best THAT’S IN US IN SERVICE TO A NOBLE PURPOSE.” Robert I. Grossman, MD, Dean & CEO NYU LANGONE MEDICAL CENTER 550 FIRST AVENUE, NEW YORK, NY 10016 2015 ANNUAL REPORT NYULANGONE.ORG “IT’S ABOUT INVESTING the best THAT’S IN US IN SERVICE TO A NOBLE PURPOSE.” Robert I. Grossman, MD, Dean & CEO NYU LANGONE MEDICAL CENTER 550 FIRST AVENUE, NEW YORK, NY 10016 2015 ANNUAL REPORT NYULANGONE.ORG Our purpose at NYU Langone comes down to three simple yet inviolable directives: TO TEACH, TO SERVE, AND TO DISCOVER. Ours is a clarifying mission that demands the best we have to offer — and brings out the best in all of us. The proof is in another exceptional year of growth and progress, that has further deepened our commitment to doing all we can for our patients, our students, our science.

GROSSMAN, MD, DEAN & CEO When Robert I. Grossman, MD, joined NYU Langone Medical Center as dean and CEO in 2007, he created a series of monthly essays, called In Touch, to share his vision for the Medical Center with faculty and staff. “It is a conversation, a commonality that connects all of us,” Dr. Grossman says of the series. The passages that appear throughout this report are excerpts from In Touch over the years. 03 THE START OF A NEW YEAR IS A NEARLY UNIVERSAL OCCASION TO REFLECT ON WHERE YOU HAVE BEEN AND WHERE YOU ARE GOING. FOR ME, WHAT MATTERS MOST OF ALL IS TO LOOK FORWARD. AS LONG AS YOU ARE BLESSED WITH HEALTH AND DETERMINATION, TOMORROW ALWAYS OFFERS THE CHANCE — IF YOU SEIZE IT — TO Become who you have always wanted to be. December 26, 2014 Robert I. Grossman, MD, Dean & CEO 04 NYU Langone Medical Center 2015 Annual Report LETTER From the Chair of the Board and the Dean & CEO By all measures, this has been a truly exceptional year at NYU Langone Medical Center, and we are immensely proud of all the members of our community who made outstanding contributions. For the third consecutive year, NYU Langone scored number one for overall patient quality and safety among 102 leading academic medical centers nationwide that were included in the University HealthSystem Consortium (UHC) 2015 Quality and Accountability Study. U.S. News & World Report’s 2015–2016 “Best Hospitals Honor Roll” ranked us number 12 on its list of the country’s top hospitals, with 12 nationally ranked specialties. We welcomed Lutheran Medical Center in southwest Brooklyn — now known as NYU Lutheran Medical Center — into the NYU Langone family. Our ever- KENNETH G. LANGONE expanding ambulatory care network acquired 30 practices this year, among Chair, Board of Trustees them NYU Langone Huntington Medical Group, the largest of our satellites. In the research realm, seminal findings in many scientific fields have come from our basic and clinical investigators. NYU School of Medicine ranked number 14 in research on U.S. News & World Report’s 2016 rankings of the Best Medical Schools, up from number 19 last year. The leap reflects, in part, the School’s dramatic boost in NIH funding, which reached an historic high only three years after Hurricane Sandy brought research at the Medical Center to a standstill. At NYU School of Medicine, our pioneering Curriculum for the 21st Century (C21) expanded its three-year pathway program this year. This and other reforms in physician training innovated at NYU Langone have become models for medical schools across the country. The greatest clinical highlight of the past year, which garnered worldwide ROBERT I. GROSSMAN attention, was an unprecedented surgery performed at Tisch Hospital on Dean & CEO August 14, when a severely burned firefighter from Mississippi underwent the most complex and comprehensive face transplant to date, led by Dr. Eduardo D. Rodriguez, the Helen L. Kimmel Professor of Reconstructive Plastic Surgery and chair of the Hansjörg Wyss Department of Plastic Surgery. Our mission to serve, to teach, and to discover inspires us every day, and we look forward to a new year of achievements. 05 THE PACE OF HEALTHCARE IS VERY FAST, SO WE MUST CONTINUALLY LOOK FAR DOWN THE ROAD 06 NYU Langone Medical Center 2015 Annual Report FOR OPPORTUNITIES AND ETERNALLY FOCUS ON EXCELLENCE. January 22, 2015 Robert I. Grossman, MD, Dean & CEO GROWTH OF OUR FOOTPRINT For us, the road to opportunity leads far beyond our main campus on the east side of Manhattan, to Brooklyn, Staten Island, Queens, Long Island, Westchester, and New Jersey. By expanding our clinical services to more and more zip codes, a growing number of people now have access to NYU Langone’s world-class care right where they live and work. Last year, our network of ambulatory-care sites saw nearly 3 million visits. To accommodate a surge in patient volume, we’ve expanded existing practices to put more of the specialists that patients need under one roof. And our faculty practice has expanded to 1,700 top-tier physicians. We’ve also forged an unprecedented partnership with Lutheran Medical Center, a 450-bed teaching hospital in southwest Brooklyn, now called NYU Lutheran, which joined the NYU Langone family in 2016. The relationship anchors NYU Langone in the largest borough in New York City, which 40 percent of our inpatients call home. Our emphasis on ambulatory care and strategic investments recognizes a vital new reality in healthcare: it’s no longer confined within the walls of a hospital. “Technology and medical breakthroughs are creating shorter and shorter hospital visits and more and more ambulatory-care activity,” says Andrew Brotman, MD, senior vice president and vice dean for clinical affairs and strategy. “We’ve fully embraced that trend.” Growth of Our Footprint 07 CLINICAL EXPANSION NYU Lutheran: A Match Made in Brooklyn A commitment to high-quality medical the first hospital in Brooklyn to NYU Langone was drawn to the care and a tradition of service to the receive comprehensive stroke center medical center’s dedication to community — these are key qualities certification from the Joint Commission. community care diversity.

  • The Cost of Law School and the Burden of Law Student Debt a City Bar Association Program Held on April 27, 2004
    The Cost of Law School and the Burden of Law Student Debt A City Bar Association Program Held on April 27, 2004 Summary ABCNY’s Committee on Legal Education and Admission to the Bar has devoted considerable attention to issues relating to the cost of law school and the effects on law graduates of the substantial levels of debt incurred to finance legal education. The Committee has met with representatives of Access Group (the largest funding source for law student borrowings) and of Concord Law School (Kaplan Inc’s on-line law school). The Committee has issued its own report on the subject of law student debt, available on this website. On April 27, 2004 the Committee convened a panel of experienced educators to discuss both topics. The group included the ABA’s Consultant on Legal Education, who heads the ABA’s accreditations program, the President of Kaplan Inc., two current law school deans (NYU, Syracuse) and a former Cornell dean who is a pioneer in on-line legal resources. What follows is a lightly edited transcript of their discussion, some charts providing the basic statistics, and an abbreviated bibliography. Panel Discussion: The Cost of Law School and The Burden of Law Student Debt Transcript - ABCNY, 4/27/04 MR. BEHA: I’m Jim Beha, the current Chair of the Association’s Committee on Legal Education and Admission to the Bar. This evening’s topic is The Cost of Law School and The Burden of Law Student Debt. Perhaps not surprisingly, the financial resources of those entering law school have not increased significantly over the last fifteen years.

Hurley, Ph.D. Vice-President November 12, 2012 John Sexton President New York University 70 Washington Square South New York, New York, 10012 Dear President Sexton, In July of this year, the New York City Council approved the New York University Core 2031 plan, enabling the construction of new buildings providing needed academic space and ancillary uses on the two superblocks between W. Houston Street and W. 3rd Street, LaGuardia Place and Mercer Street. The plan also provides for several acres of new publicly accessible open space on land owned by NYU and New York City, some of which will be mapped as a New York City park. The new open space will be designed and opened to the public over a number of years, as the new buildings on the superblocks are constructed. As part of the approval, NYU has committed to creating a legally distinct, non-profit Open Space Oversight Organization (OSOO). The New York City Planning Commission (CPC), acting upon the suggestion of members of the public during the hearing process, conceived of this organization to foster further community input into the management of the new publicly accessible open space. NYU’s commitment to incorporate the OSOO with an independent board of directors and thereafter to work with the organization is memorialized in a Restrictive Declaration that governs development on the superblocks.
