The new ICE guidelines are cruel and unnecessary. Our international students are incredibly driven, talented, and VITAL to The New School’s mission and values. We will resist any attempt to fragment our community.
We are THRILLED to welcome our next president, Dr. Dwight A. McBride, a leading scholar of race and literary studies. He is the current provost of Emory, and former dean at Northwestern and the U. of Illinois. We can't wait to see you on campus in the spring,

As announced on Monday, we have made the difficult decision to stop paying wages and premiums for healthcare benefits for employees who are striking. Up to this point, we have continued to compensate our faculty and staff who have chosen to exercise their right to strike.

The New School mourns the loss of bell hooks, writer, poet, and radical thinker who touched the hearts and minds of her readers around the world. A prolific feminist author, teacher, and public intellectual, bell hooks was a former scholar in residence at The New School. (1/4)

We're glad to announce we've reached a tentative contract agreement with our part-time faculty union, and the strike is over.
All university classes and events will resume as scheduled immediately.
The New School was founded in 1919 by a resistance against censorship. Today, we still believe people should hold true to their values without fear of repercussion.
