First Group of Students Selected for Stanford in New York

Twenty Stanford undergrads are headed our way.

Launching in the fall, Stanford in New York is a three-year pilot program that aims to cycle small groups of undergraduate students through a thoroughly Manhattan academic quarter. With some specialized course options added to the mix.

Here for example is part of the description for program course “Writing in the City:”

Writers like Zadie Smith, Nathan Englander and Colson Whitehead will be invited to the class to discuss their work and the city’s influence upon it; students will be encouraged to attend literary events like the Moth Storytelling Series, Amanda Stern’s famous Happy Ending Reading Series and the literary lectures at the 92nd St.
