    "I know it can be really overwhelming figuring out who to be, and when. Who you are now and how to act in order to get where you want to go. I have some good news: it’s totally up to you. I also have some terrifying news: it’s totally up to you." - @taylorswift13

    "1. You have a right to want things and to want things to change. 2. Wanting is not enough. To change things you have to take over. 3. You have to stop being afraid." —Commencement speaker and honorary degree recipient @MarinSanna's three pieces of advice to #NYU2023

    2/2: Other than acts of violence, NYU does not consider any form of school disciplinary action as part of our admissions process. Therefore we would not take account of school discipline in a circumstance of peaceful protest on a pressing matter of national debate.

    "There are not nearly enough women in leadership positions. Not nearly enough young people. Not enough people of different backgrounds in our democratic decision-making systems. The face of the power is not the same as the face of the people. And this has to change." —@MarinSanna
