Honestly, the only reason I'm making this topic is because both Obama and McCain are coming to campus today and making speeches later this afternoon.
But, we DID have the President of Iran, various ambassadors, senators, and such come last year (and every other year) as well.. so :D |

Vampire Weekend and Clipse performed during my freshman orientation. Well, a lot of famous people teach at NYU: Spike Lee, Martin Scorsese (at some point, I don't know if he does anymore). I know some kids who got to see Brokeback Mountain months before it came out when Ang Lee spoke to their classes. Um... Michael J. Fox was at my graduation (getting an honorary degree), as did Michael Strahan (who got an honorary degree as well, and gave a speech). Hmmm... OH! Talib Kweli did a concert my junior year! We had Cool Kids and Crystal Castles last semester. The list goes on and on.... And then, a ton of famous people actually attend the school: Mara Wilson, Haley Joel Osment, the Olsen twins (those f**kin' dropouts), and now James Franco is a grad student there (which made me sad when I found out). |
