The Master's College from NYU Arts & Science on Vimeo

Now not enough people know that the Master's degree is the most rapidly growing degree in higher education We have something called Master's College in which our wonderful students engage in the wide range of human thought I created the Master's College because we care about master's students and this was a way within the Graduate School to show how important master's students are and to give them an enhanced sense of community and intellectual adventure there are so many events and activities organized by the Master's College Program Board this is a Master's College toast throughout the year the master's program board puts on different events and they invite students from across disciplines to attend and it seems like there's different currents of ideas that kind of float around and that students can get together and discuss and when they have different perspectives on things it can really enrich your own perspective you are a student you're putting your mind into action you are not just a number you're a significant student as part of a wave of master's education one of the great reforming waves in higher education we worked different perspectives, different experiences and we want talent, wherever we might find it diversity creates a multiplicity of ideas but then how do you bring together diverse populations one way is a common idea of identity as a student we wanted to meet each other and work together and to let master students know every day how important the master's degree is and how important their ideas are and how original they want to take their NYU Arts and Science Master's Degree and go out and shape the world
