Congratulations NYU Class of 2008


This is an exciting week full of celebrations and graduations. Today is the 12th Annual Grad Alley, a Commencement Eve celebration marking the accomplishments of all NYU graduates from 5:00pm-8:00pm. A carnival type atmosphere is created along West Fourth Street, La Guardia Place, and the NYU plazas. Banners will serve as a guide while you stroll down Grad Alley enjoying the many entertainment opportunities including jugglers, mimes, Lady Liberty, arcade games and more. Food is available for a bite to eat while taking in the sights. The sounds of a live D.J. fill Gould Plaza encouraging graduates, their families and friends to dance and party the night away. The campus on the square is alive with an air of nostalgia and excitement. As the sun sets, a fireworks display off the rooftops from Gould Plaza announces the roar of Commencement to follow the next morning. Be sure to stick around for the fireworks at 8:00pm by Gould Plaza.

Be sure to stop by the Alumni Tent to pick up a bag of goodies.

NYU Commencement will take place tomorrow, May 14th at Yankee Stadium. You can watch a live webcast of the events here.

Love this blog! I'm an 03' CAS grad and was excited when I found that this blog existed. Looking forward to my visit back to campus on Alumni Day.
