The New School is at a point of inflection.

The COVID crisis, online instruction, lay-offs of staff, a new President, the departure of the Provost and reduced enrollments all raise questions about the current state and future direction of the University. With PublicSquare, we are creating a space to share information and ideas from members of The New School community.
