‘Tis the day to be jolly, as it’s time for another edition of Campus Chronicles! Today we turn our attention back to NYU Stern, checking out what the student newspaper, Opportunity, has to reveal about the latest happenings on campus.
Opportunity sheds light on the efforts of NYU Stern’s ProMotion Pictures Program to create branded content for Cisco’s Digital Cribs Campaign. This campaign enables students to delve into how individuals employ technology in innovative ways to encourage consumers to adopt these new technologies. In working on these creative interpretations, both business and film students gain real-world experience in working with a corporate sponsor to generate and market their content. Eight teams of NYU business and film students have worked over the last couple of months to produce documentaries which explore the intersection of technology and consumers. NYU Stern students had the opportunity to view and vote on these films at http://www.cisco.com/web/consumer/digitalcribs/index.html.
On the social front, over 600 members of the Stern alumni community attended the Eighth Annual Stern Alumni Ball on December 6th at the American Museum of Natural History. A special tradition, the gala allows alumni, faculty, administrators and friends the opportunity to reunite and celebrate the Stern community over the holidays. Over the course of evening, alumni enjoyed exclusive access to the exhibits in the Cullman Hall of the Universe, the Gottesman Hall of Planet Earth, and the Heilbrunn Cosmic Pathway, enjoying an breath-taking light show in the Big Bang Theater. The gala was a great success, strengthening community ties and allowing all to enjoy one terrific evening.
Stayed tuned next week for a new edition of Campus Chronicles! In the meantime, happy holidays!
