100 Nights Before Commencement: "100 Nights" is a party and an information session in one. The program was created to provide an opportunity for students to better celebrate their graduation in May and at the same time gain valuable information from such resources as Career Services, Alumni Services, the NYU BookCenters, the Senior Week Committee, Grad Alley and the Tisch Salute. Lots of free food, beverages and information will be available.
The Tisch Salute to the Class of 2008: Tisch’s graduation ceremony is an affectionate salute to the class and includes addresses by Dean Mary Schmidt Campbell, a student speaker, an honored guest speaker and the Tisch department Chairs.
