We are NYU’s Blog. Our goal is to deliver all the discussion-worthy happenings in the school and city we call home. The site is conversational, the setup straightforward, and the information useful. Read our daily blend of original reporting and insightful commentary to learn about what’s happening at your university, in your neighborhood, and around the country. We’ll help you feel pretty damn connected to a school with no campus.

Instant news, however, is especially compelling for breaking stories like last year’s student occupation of an NYU cafeteria. For NYU Local, the blogger Charlie Eisenhood got inside with the kaffiyeh-wearing radicals and put readers there, with a marathon multimedia live-blogging collage so intimate that it included listening in on snippets of negotiations. The blog played the role of “managing this giant discussion,” Mr. Brown says, rather than trying to summarize the madness in the style of a traditional newspaper article.

“… a lively hyperlocal university news site.”

Charlie Eisenhood (CAS ’11) was named this spring to the UWIRE 100, which honors the nation’s top collegiate journalists. Eisenhood, national editor at the Web site NYU Local, was selected from more than 800 nominations submitted by students and educators at 135 schools.
The site screams innovation and is a worthy addition to collegemediatopia’s
larger efforts to reinvent the journalism field.
Dan Reimold, College Media Matters
NYU Local has latched onto the unique nature of this untraditional
metropolitan campus and given it a beat.

Hello, I’m not quite sure if you have heard of Dale J.Stephens, but I think it would be really interesting if NYULocal were to write about this really unique perspective that Dale Stephens is emphasizing. It would also be great for NYU students to relay their messages in response as well. Thanks for considering!
There are bone marrow drives happening at the Kimmel Center tomorrow and Friday of this week for Janet Liang, a recent UCLA graduate battling leukemia. Would it be possible for someone to cover the event and or blog about it? Here is the facebook event page: https://www.facebook.com/events/148883451898766/
Thank you <3
