Make the most of the university’s vibrant interdisciplinary culture by joining a student group—or starting one yourself. At The New School, you’re surrounded by peers who are as passionate and curious as you are: scholars involved in a diverse range of activities, from identity-based groups such as the Queer Collective and Black Student Union to civically engaged organizations like the University Student Senate, and arts-focused collectives dedicated to showcasing groundbreaking dance and theatrical productions, literary excellence, and more.
