The Definitive (Not Really) List of Things You Can Post to Enter
- A pic (or video or boomerang) with your I AM STERN banner. Bonus points/bragging rights if you’ve got multiple years’ worth of them!
- You and your cohort. (#CohortPride4Life.)
- A throwback to the best thing you did all summer – whether it was studying away, learning a new skill, working at your job/internship, or going on a fun trip.
- The most Instagrammable food on (or we’ll accept near) campus. C’mon, you were going to do it anyway.
- A joyous reunion with your NYU pals after too many months away.
- Your favorite spot in Tisch Hall, KMC, or Gould Plaza. (Yes, we know they’re amazing.)
- Your favorite spot on campus that isn’t Tisch Hall, KMC, or Gould Plaza. (But yes, we also know they’re not everything.)
- A beautiful day in NYU's "quad" – Washington Square Park.
- Your best presidential posts with one of the NYU presidential portraits. Not sure where they portraits live? Here’s a hint: they reside in the same building as Andy Hamilton's office.
- Your best Professor Teaching a Class moment at the head of the classroom. Who knows: you could be a TA while you're here and you'll definitely step up to the podium in class presentations. Practice makes perfect.
- A landmark from the city you’re currently in. Sternies studying abroad, we’re looking at you!
- Your favorite activity from Welcome Week – Stern Orientation or not! (Class of 2022, this will be easy. Sophomores, juniors, and seniors, dig back into the archives!)
- A real-world application of a business lesson learned at NYU Stern.
- Documentation from one of the many social and professional activities taking place across NYU Welcome Week/Welcome {Back} Week: Club Fest, Mystery Concert, On-Campus Recruitment, Professional Development Series, Waffle Wednesday, Stern Student Council and club meetings and more!
- An NYU Stern-themed Face Filter story. We're not sure what this means, but let's see what you come up with.
