NYU IRL launches 30-day phone-free challenge - Washington Square News (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This week, NYU launched the “Phone Breakup Challenge” — a 30-day initiative encouraging students to lower their screen times and cultivate in-person connections.

NYU IRL partnered with health and science journalist Catherine Price to launch the “Phone Breakup Challenge,” which started Sunday, inspired by he
Young white men more likely to support white nationalism, NYU researchers find - Washington Square News (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Young white men who experience social and economic stress are most likely to support white nationalist ideology, NYU researchers reported earlier this month. Three researchers from the NYU Center for Social Media, AI, and Politics asked over 7,800 non-Hispanic white U.S. adults if they supported white nationalism after providing a short description of the movement’s core beliefs.

Tackling this problem does not require finding radical new methods
Opinion: Aesthetic design won’t stop suicides - Washington Square News (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Content warning: This article discusses suicide. Stepping into the foyer of the iconic Bobst Library, your eyes are immediately drawn upwards towards the metal panels affixed to the staircases and balcony walls. The panels were constructed in 2012, replacing plexi-glass ones that were installed after a series of suicides during the 2000s — addresing the issue while also adding decorative charm. Between erecting physical barriers and emergency hotlines after tragic incidents, NYU has embraced a s
