  • New York University Student Conduct Policy
    New York University UNIVERSITY POLICIES Title: University Student Conduct Policy Effective Date: August 12, 2020 Supersedes: University Student Conduct Policy Dated August 2019 Issuing Authority: Senior Vice-President for Student Affairs Responsible Officer: Director, Office of Student Conduct and Community Standards I. STATEMENT OF POLICY New York University (“NYU” or the “University”), like other communities and organizations in our society, has a right to require the cooperation of its members in the performance of its educational functions, and to oversee and regulate the conduct and behavior of such members which, actually or has potential to, impede, obstruct, or threaten the maintenance of order and achievement of the University’s educational goals. The authority to establish academic standards and address allegations of student academic misconduct is lodged with the faculty of each college or school at NYU. In addition to the academic standards and other policies established by each school, the University Senate has also defined certain areas of non-academic misconduct that are applicable to all students. The standards of non-academic misconduct set forth in this policy are applicable to all undergraduate and graduate students and student organizations at New York University, in all schools and locations, including Study Away Sites, and Portal Campuses. II. ACADEMIC FREEDOM, DEMONSTRATION AND PROTEST The University is a community where the means of seeking to establish truth are open discussion and free discourse. It thrives on debate and dissent, which must be protected as a matter of academic freedom within the University, quite apart from the question of constitutional rights. The University also recognizes that a critically engaged, activist student body contributes to NYU’s academic mission.

  • A Distinguished Private University
    A DISTINGUISHED PRIVATE UNIVERSITY The founding of New York University in 1831 by a group of eminent private citizens was a historic event in American education. In the early 19th century, a major emphasis in higher education was on the study of Greek and Latin, with little attention to modern or contemporary subjects. The founders of New York University intended to enlarge the scope of higher education to meet the needs of persons aspiring to careers in business, industry, science, and the arts, as well as law, medicine, and the ministry. The opening of the University of London in 1828 convinced New Yorkers that their city, too, should have a university. The first president of New York University's governing council, Albert Gallatin, and his co-founders said that the new university was to be a "national university" that would provide a "rational and practical education for all." The result of the founders' foresight is today an institution of higher education at the forefront of America's urban research universities. Of the more than 3,000 colleges and universities in America, New York University is one of the 58 private institutions that are members of the distinguished Association of American Universities. Among its stellar – and accessible – faculty are recipients of the Nobel, Abel, and Pulitzer Prizes; the MacArthur, Guggenheim, and Fulbright Fellowships; and Academy and Emmy Awards. The University includes 14 schools, colleges, and divisions at six major centers in Manhattan. In addition, the University operates branch campus programs in Westchester County at Manhattanville College and in Rockland County at Dominican College.
