How has NYU Club Lacrosse grown in popularity over the years. What makes the men’s and women’s teams unique. Why do students choose to participate in club lacrosse at NYU.
The Rise of NYU Club Lacrosse: A Student Favorite
New York University’s club lacrosse program has seen significant growth and popularity in recent years, offering students a chance to continue their athletic careers while pursuing academic excellence. Both the men’s and women’s teams have experienced increased participation and success, creating a vibrant lacrosse community on campus.
Women’s Team Growth and Success
The women’s lacrosse club has seen remarkable expansion, with roster sizes growing to as many as 30 players. Head Coach Briar DeTommaso, a 2018 NYU Steinhardt graduate and former team captain, has observed a shift in the team’s composition:
- Increased commitment levels from players
- More experienced recruits with high school playing backgrounds
- Stronger team cohesion and performance
The team competes in the New England Women’s Lacrosse League (NEWLL), facing formidable opponents such as Fordham University, Stony Brook University, Yale University, and Hofstra University. In the spring of 2020, the team started strong with victories against Stony Brook and Hofstra before the season was cut short due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Men’s Team Development
The men’s lacrosse club has also experienced significant growth under the leadership of Head Coach Rudi Martinez. When Martinez began coaching at NYU, the team had only 8-10 players. In contrast, last year saw 43 players sign up for the team. Martinez’s inclusive approach to coaching has contributed to this growth:
- No cuts are made, regardless of experience level
- Focus on player development and improvement
- Increased competitiveness against local rivals
The men’s team competes in the National College Lacrosse League (NCLL), facing club teams throughout the Northeast, including local Division I teams from Columbia University and Hofstra, as well as Division III-rival Stevens Institute of Technology.
Balancing Academics and Athletics: Why Students Choose NYU Club Lacrosse
Many students are drawn to NYU primarily for its academic reputation but find the opportunity to continue their lacrosse careers through the club program to be an added benefit. This balance of academic and athletic pursuits is a key factor in the program’s popularity.
Academic Priority, Athletic Opportunity
Grace Del Buono, a member of the women’s team, exemplifies this sentiment: “While I chose NYU for the academics, I knew I wanted my athletic career to continue and having lacrosse here gave me that opportunity.” This perspective is shared by many club lacrosse players at NYU, who appreciate the chance to maintain their involvement in the sport without the demands of a varsity program.
Community and Camaraderie
The lacrosse clubs at NYU foster a strong sense of community among players. Coach DeTammaso notes, “We have a great community here,” highlighting the social benefits of participating in club lacrosse. This camaraderie extends beyond practice and games, enhancing students’ overall college experience.
Overcoming Challenges: Success Without a Home Field
Despite the lack of a dedicated home field and the absence of active recruitment beyond the University’s Annual Club Fair, both the men’s and women’s lacrosse clubs have flourished. This success in the face of challenges demonstrates the dedication of players and coaches alike.
Creative Solutions for Practice and Play
Without a home field, the teams have had to be resourceful in finding practice and game locations. This adaptability has become a hallmark of the NYU lacrosse experience, with players and coaches working together to make the most of available resources.
Attracting Talented Players
Even without formal recruitment, the clubs have managed to attract skilled players. Coach DeTammaso receives numerous inquiries from high school players interested in continuing their lacrosse careers at a club level. This organic interest has contributed to the teams’ growth and improved performance.
Player Profiles: Standout Athletes in NYU Club Lacrosse
Both the men’s and women’s teams boast talented players who have made significant contributions to their respective programs.
Women’s Team Standouts
- Ailis DeTammaso – Junior midfielder
- Jordan Russo – Junior midfielder
- Grace Del Buono – Senior midfielder
Men’s Team Key Players
- Manny Enamorado – Senior midfielder
- Alec Cohen-Schisler – Senior goalie
- William Moses Pinto – Junior defender
These players have been instrumental in the teams’ success and serve as leaders both on and off the field.
Coaching Excellence: The Driving Force Behind NYU Lacrosse
The success of NYU’s club lacrosse programs can be attributed in large part to the dedication and expertise of their coaches.
Briar DeTommaso: Women’s Team Head Coach
As a recent NYU graduate and former team captain, DeTommaso brings a unique perspective to her role as head coach. Her experience as a player has informed her coaching style and helped her connect with current team members.
Rudi Martinez: Men’s Team Head Coach
Martinez’s impressive lacrosse background, including his experience with the Mexican National Team and participation in international competitions, has been invaluable to the men’s program. His inclusive coaching philosophy and focus on player development have contributed to the team’s growth and success.
Competition and Achievement: NYU Lacrosse in Action
Both the men’s and women’s teams have achieved notable successes in their respective leagues, showcasing the program’s competitiveness and skill level.
Women’s Team Highlights
The women’s team’s strong start in the spring 2020 season, with victories against Stony Brook and Hofstra, demonstrated their potential for success. Coach DeTammaso highlighted their game against Hofstra as a turning point: “Our last game of the season at Hofstra was our first game truly coming together as a team. The majority of our players were underclassmen, and with me being a new coach, there is of course a given period of getting to know everyone and how best to work together. I was always so impressed by how the team was able to dive into any playing scenario, and against Hofstra we really hit our stride.”
Men’s Team Accomplishments
The men’s team has shown steady improvement under Coach Martinez’s leadership. A significant highlight was their victory over Columbia University, a local Division I team. Martinez noted, “I have seen our team getting better and better, growing and getting more and more wins. Beating Columbia last year was a big highlight.”
The Future of NYU Club Lacrosse: Growth and Potential
As the popularity of club lacrosse at NYU continues to grow, the future looks bright for both the men’s and women’s programs.
Increasing Interest and Participation
The consistent growth in roster sizes and the increasing number of experienced players joining the teams suggest a positive trajectory for NYU club lacrosse. This trend is likely to continue as more prospective students become aware of the opportunity to play lacrosse at a competitive club level while attending a top-tier university.
Potential for Program Expansion
With the growing interest in club lacrosse, there may be opportunities for program expansion in the future. This could include:
- Increased funding and resources
- More competitive scheduling
- Enhanced practice and game facilities
- Expanded coaching staff
As the programs continue to evolve, they may also explore opportunities for community outreach and engagement, further solidifying lacrosse’s place in the NYU athletic landscape.
The Impact of COVID-19 on NYU Club Lacrosse
The COVID-19 pandemic has presented significant challenges to NYU’s club lacrosse programs, as it has to all collegiate sports. However, the resilience and dedication of players and coaches have helped maintain the sport’s popularity and momentum.
Adapting to Restrictions
While club sports at NYU are not currently meeting due to COVID-19 restrictions, the Department of Athletics continues to feature and provide insight into various offerings, including lacrosse. This ongoing communication helps keep players and fans engaged during the hiatus.
Looking Ahead
Players like Grace Del Buono remain optimistic about the future of NYU lacrosse: “It was a disappointment for all of us when last season got shut down, but that’s just making me more excited to come back and play again as a senior next year.” This enthusiasm suggests that the sport will likely see a strong resurgence once restrictions are lifted.
The challenges posed by the pandemic may even lead to innovative approaches to training, team-building, and competition that could benefit the programs in the long term.
The Unique Appeal of Club Lacrosse at NYU
NYU’s club lacrosse program offers a distinctive experience that sets it apart from both varsity programs and more casual intramural sports.
Commitment Without Compromise
Club lacrosse at NYU strikes a balance between serious athletic competition and academic flexibility. Manny Enamorado, a senior midfielder on the men’s team, explains: “Even though we’re a club sport there is a lot of commitment from the guys who show up to play. Most are commuters like myself, but we practice hard and try to have fun.” This level of dedication allows players to maintain their passion for the sport without sacrificing their academic pursuits.
Inclusive Environment
Unlike many varsity programs, NYU’s club lacrosse teams welcome players of all skill levels. Coach Martinez’s no-cut policy for the men’s team exemplifies this inclusive approach: “I don’t make cuts, even if they have no experience, because I feel I can help make them better.” This philosophy creates opportunities for player development and fosters a supportive team environment.
Competitive Opportunities
Despite their club status, both the men’s and women’s teams compete against formidable opponents, including some varsity programs. This level of competition allows players to challenge themselves and continue developing their skills throughout their college careers.
The unique combination of commitment, inclusivity, and competitiveness makes NYU’s club lacrosse program an attractive option for students seeking to balance their athletic and academic pursuits.
Building Lasting Connections: The NYU Lacrosse Network
Participation in NYU’s club lacrosse program often leads to lasting connections that extend beyond graduation, creating a valuable network for players both personally and professionally.
Alumni Involvement
Many former players maintain ties to the program after graduation. Coach DeTammaso’s transition from player to coach exemplifies this continued involvement. These alumni connections can provide current players with mentorship opportunities and insights into post-graduation career paths.
Cross-Program Relationships
The lacrosse program also fosters connections with other athletic programs at NYU. For example, Grace Del Buono’s brother Joseph was an All-American as a member of NYU’s varsity swimming & diving team. These cross-program relationships contribute to a broader sense of athletic community at the university.
Long-Term Benefits
The friendships and connections formed through club lacrosse can have long-lasting benefits for players. These relationships can lead to:
- Professional networking opportunities
- Lifelong friendships
- Continued involvement in the sport post-graduation
- A sense of connection to the NYU community
By participating in club lacrosse, students not only enhance their college experience but also build a network that can support them well into their future careers and personal lives.
The Role of Club Lacrosse in Campus Life at NYU
Club lacrosse plays a significant role in enhancing campus life at NYU, contributing to the university’s diverse array of extracurricular activities and fostering a sense of school spirit.
Promoting Athletic Engagement
In a university known primarily for its academic prowess, club lacrosse provides an outlet for students to engage in competitive athletics. This opportunity helps create a more well-rounded college experience and promotes physical health and wellness among the student body.
Fostering School Spirit
The success and growth of the lacrosse clubs have contributed to increased school spirit at NYU. As the teams compete against other universities, they represent NYU and give students another reason to take pride in their school.
Creating Community
Club lacrosse serves as a focal point for community-building on campus. It brings together students from various academic programs and backgrounds, fostering connections that might not otherwise form in the classroom or dorm settings.
Enhancing Student Life
The presence of a thriving club lacrosse program adds to the richness of student life at NYU. It provides:
- Opportunities for students to attend and support games
- A topic of conversation and shared interest among students
- An avenue for students to stay active and manage stress
- A way for students to develop leadership and teamwork skills
By contributing to the vibrant tapestry of campus life, club lacrosse helps make the NYU experience more dynamic and engaging for all students, whether they play or simply support the teams.
NYU Club Lacrosse Remains Popular
Story Links
While New York University Club Sports are not currently meeting due to Covid-19 restrictions, the Department of Athletics continues to feature and provide insight into our various offerings. Today, we highlight NYU’s Men’s and Women’s Lacrosse Clubs. Previously, the Figure Skating Club, Table Tennis Club and Latin and Ballroom Dance Club have been featured.
New York University’s Women’s and Men’s Club Lacrosse teams have grown throughout the years, providing a popular option for those who want to continue their playing careers. Both former and current players have found that it enhances their overall college experience.
Grace Del Buono joined the women’s team as a sophomore. Her brother Joseph (NYU ’19) was an All-American as a member of NYU’s varsity swimming & diving team.
“It was a disappointment for all of us when last season got shut down, but that’s just making me more excited to come back and play again as a senior next year,” Del Buono explained.
“While I chose NYU for the academics, I knew I wanted my athletic career to continue and having lacrosse here gave me that opportunity.”
Head Coach Briar DeTommaso of the women’s team remembers what it was like to play as an undergrad. A 2018 Steinhardt graduate, she is now in her second year at the helm.
“My decision to come to NYU was mainly based on the academics, but the fact that there was a club team where I could continue my career was super pivotal,” explained DeTammaso, who played on NYU’s club team for 3-1/2 years, serving as a two-time captain. “We had a decent team when I played, but the commitment level was low. We had a lot of first-time players then. Now, our roster size has grown to as many as 30 players and we’re getting people who played in high school. That’s a big plus.”
The team competes in the New England Women’s Lacrosse League (NEWLL), facing teams in the tri-state area such as Fordham University, University at Stony Brook, Yale University, and Hofstra University.
The squad got off to a fast start in spring 2020, winning both of its games (vs. Stony Brook and Hofstra) before the season shut down due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Top players on the squad include junior midfielders Ailis DeTammaso (the coach’s sister), Jordan Russo and Del Buono.
“Our last game of the season at Hofstra was our first game truly coming together as a team,” DeTammaso revealed. “The majority of our players were underclassmen, and with me being a new coach, there is of course a given period of getting to know everyone and how best to work together. I was always so impressed by how the team was able to dive into any playing scenario, and against Hofstra we really hit our stride.”
Both NYU’s women’s and men’s teams do not have a home field and do not actively recruit its players, other than at the University’s Annual Club Fair. Yet, it has become a popular sport at the University.
“I get a lot of inquiries from high school players who are interested in continuing to play, but not on a varsity level,” said DeTammaso, who honed her talent at Southside High School in Rockville Center.
“We have a great community here.”
Manny Enamorado is a senior midfielder on the men’s team.
“Even though we’re a club sport there is a lot of commitment from the guys who show up to play,” Enamorado added. “Most are commuters like myself, but we practice hard and try to have fun.”
Rudi Martinez is in his third season as the men’s head coach. He is a member of the Mexican National Team and has played in the World Lacrosse Games in Manchester, England, and in the World Box Games in British Columbia, Canada.
“When I started at NYU there had only been eight to 10 players here the year before,” Martinez recalled. “Last year, I had 43 players sign up. I don’t make cuts, even if they have no experience, because I feel I can help make them better.”
The men compete in the National College Lacrosse League (NCLL), playing club teams throughout the Northeast. Among NYU’s opponents are local Division I teams from Columbia University and Hofstra, as well as Division III-rival Stevens Institute of Technology.
“I have seen our team getting better and better, growing and getting more and more wins,” Martinez said. “Beating Columbia last year was a big highlight.”
Top players include Enamorado, fellow senior goalie Alec Cohen-Schisler and junior William Moses Pinto on defense. Enamorado, who is in his third year as a team member, actually played for Martinez (who was as assistant coach) at Midwood H.S. in Brooklyn.
“I have a lot of respect for his knowledge of the sport,” Enamorado said. “He pretty much taught me the game. I’m so glad I had the opportunity to play for him again at NYU.”
Both teams have remained popular despite the nomadic status of not having a home field. They practice at venues such as East River Park, Riverside Park and Pier 40 in Manhattan, and McCarron Park in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.
It is a tribute to all involved that the lack of available space has not deterred the enthusiasm of the coaches or the players.
“While I like to think of myself as a ‘win at all costs” type of coach, I realize that with limited facilities it’s more about ‘let’s just have fun’ and see our players improve and do their best every time out,” Martinez surmised.
“We do that, and it’s something we can all be proud of.”
The History of Lacrosse at NYU
Lexi Echelman (GSAS ’19)
Lacrosse at New York University was established in 1878, when the relationship between sports and college life as we know it today was a relatively uncommon phenomenon. Albert Warren Ferris, a class of 1878 medical student and lacrosse player, reflected in his 1922 essay “Inception of La Crosse at N.Y.U” that
“The College Idea was a modest affair. Absolute essentials of today’s college life were not even imagined in the dreams of the undergraduate. His demands were fewer, his appreciation of himself was less expansive. With small libraries and limited apparatus he achieved: for his prime aims were self-development and the acquirement of education. He was eager to toil and cared more to burn the midnight oil than to consume the midday meal.”
According to Ferris, students at that time were almost exclusively focused on their education, as opposed to social or athletic pursuits.
While student life did exist in the form of literary debate societies, none of these satisfied Ferris’ need for “muscular activities.” It was this need that led to the establishment of the Athletic Association of the Class of ’78 by senior Louis C. Whiton. Early “field meets” were held at Prospect Park in Brooklyn, according to Ferris’ article. Then, a monumental change happened to the NYU’s Athletic Association; the class of 1878 had a chance to play a team comprised of Indigenous Peoples from Canada (who Ferris referred to as Caughnawaugha Indians). The Canadian businessman Erastmus Wiman (who Ferris spells as “Wyman”) brought these lacrosse players to New York to play exhibition games at the original Madison Square Garden (then known as Gilmore’s Garden) against local amateur teams. He also secured a Canadian coach for the newly formed NYU team. The NYU team was one of three clubs that participated in the tournament, despite playing fewer than a dozen games previously.
Adorned with violet bands on the neck and sleeves of their jerseys, NYU played the Canadian team during their second sojourn to New York.
The NYU team lost, but nonetheless, lacrosse had become firmly established at the University.
Indeed, there was growing interest in athletics at New York University in the late nineteenth century. The May 1885 University Quarterly was one of the many publications advocating for different pedagogical theories than those favoring intelligence alone. Writers like the athlete Frank N. Zabriskie argued that a complete education requires critical thinking, practicality, astute moral habits, and well-intentioned motives. The focus was on a well-rounded education, and this was what student athletes argued in the May 1885 University Quarterly when they demanded a gymnasium for the university: “The co-operation of the Faculty is counted on in this matter [of acquiring a gymnasium], as it is needless to remind them that ‘all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.’” The Athletic Association, however, would not attain their own gymnasium until the opening of the University Heights campus in the Bronx and the establishment of Ohio Field there in 1891.
Despite the lack of a gym, the New York University lacrosse team continued to thrive. The July 1881 edition of the University Quarterly reported that the lacrosse team traveled to Baltimore to play teams from Columbia University, Staten Island, Canada, and more. After these skirmishes, the team opened up a “subscription list” in order to procure funds for more of their games. The team was entirely dependent upon funds from the student body and alumni. These funds allowed the team to secure spaces to play and travel to out-of-town competitions.
Lacrosse in the nineteenth century had a ten-year lifespan, which was impressive for a sport that was entirely student run and organized. Not much is said for the end of lacrosse at NYU; a writer from The University in 1887 only notes that “the enthusiasm of men who were willing to undergo personal sacrifice for the sake of the Lacrosse team has cooled.” Perhaps the flame of lacrosse went away, but the enthusiasm for creating a college life and activities for New York University students was an enduring legacy of the lacrosse team.
It is something that can be felt in the sports teams that play today.

New York University in the USA (New York) | Conditions of admission, terms and cost of training
New York University is an elite private university with campuses in New York, Shanghai and Abu Dhabi. But the history of NYU began in Manhattan, in the Greenwich Village quarter, in 1831.
In 2018 NYU entered the top 30 best universities in the world, according to the prestigious ARWU, Times Higher Education and U.S. rankings. News & World Report. On the lists of the best departments of U.S. News & World Report ranked NYU School of Law 6th in the country, as did the School of Education and School of Public Policy. The School of Medicine and Research was ranked 3rd in the United States. 37 Nobel laureates studied and taught here.
This is one of the largest private universities in the United States. Today, over 50 thousand students study on all NYU campuses. Talented young people from 133 countries of the world come here.
In 2019, the university received almost 84.5 thousand applications from applicants – more than any other private university in America.NYU has been setting records for the number of applications for 12 consecutive years!
There are 11 schools in NYU in New York. They specialize in arts and sciences, dentistry, individual research, business, humanities, nursing, culture, education and development, social work, engineering and the arts. There is also a school for professional courses. Courses are taught here in 230 fields of science.
Each NYU school provides fundamental education with a strong, practical focus.So, dentist students monitor the condition of patients in the round-the-clock dentistry of the university, and future journalists undergo practical training in real editions of well-known media. The university has a well-developed research work, and the projects include not only masters, but also bachelors. Each year NYU hosts the Undergraduate Student Research Conference, where young scientists talk about their success in the study of glucose regulation in diabetics and free will in the Iliad.
NYU students play soccer and basketball, golf and softball, tennis and volleyball, wrestling and athletics, swimming and diving, fencing and cross-country.In addition, sports such as fencing, triathlon, cycling, hockey, lacrosse, martial arts, rugby, squash and frisbee can be learned on the New York campus. Students train at several sports centers and playing fields throughout Manhattan. Now the university is building its own sports complex with a swimming pool, basketball courts, treadmills and other sports grounds.
NYU is a truly international university. In addition to two overseas campuses in China and the UAE, it has 12 academic centers in Accra, Berlin, Buenos Aires, Florence, London, Los Angeles, Madrid, Paris, Prague, Sydney, Tel Aviv and Washington DC.But the main campus – with academic buildings, administrative buildings and research laboratories – is in the center of New York. Students live in 23 residence halls, most of which are located in Greenwich Village.

New York University Description
Founded in 1831, New York University is currently one of the largest private universities in the United States.Of more than 3,000 colleges and universities in America, New York University is one of 60 member institutions of the distinguished Association of American Universities. From 158 students during NYU’s very first semester, enrollment has grown to over 50,000 students across three degree-granting campuses in New York, Abu Dhabi and Shanghai, as well as study locations in Africa, Asia.
Australia, Europe, North and South America. Today, students come to the university from all states and from 133 foreign countries.The faculty, which originally consisted of 14 professors and lecturers (among them the artist and inventor Samuel FB Morse), now has over 3,000 full-time faculty members.
While adherence to original ideals remains unchanged, in many ways Albert Gallatin is unlikely to recognize New York University today. Great cities are engines of creativity, and New York University takes its name and spirit from one of the busiest, most diverse and dynamic cities in the world.The university is located in New York and other major cities, from Abu Dhabi to Shanghai, from Paris to Prague, from Sydney to Buenos Aires – all of them are magnets for talented, ambitious people. New York University is one of the world’s most branched and extensive platforms for learning, teaching, research, accumulation of knowledge and finding new ways to solve the problems of humanity. Its students, faculty and alumni are inspired by the stimulating influence of mental and cultural experiences, mastering academic disciplines, expressing themselves in the arts and in ambitious professions.
The official color of the university: purple, nickname: Violets, Mascot: Bobcat (lynx). 10 New York University libraries hold more than 5.9 million volumes, and the Bobst Library has up to 10,500 visits daily. NYU is associated with 4 Nobel Prizes and 5 Pulitzer Prizes.
NYU’s mission is to remain a high quality international center for teaching and research. This includes retaining and recruiting outstanding faculty members who are leaders in their respective fields, encouraging them to create programs that attract outstanding students, and providing an intellectually rich environment.
History of New York University
In 1831, Albert Gallatin, a distinguished statesman who was Secretary of the Treasury under Presidents Thomas Jefferson and James Madison, announced his intention to create “in this huge and rapidly growing city … a system of rational and practical education suitable to all and graciously open to all. ”At the time, most students in American colleges and universities were members of privileged classes.
Gallatin and the university’s founding fathers planned New York University as a center of higher education that would be open to everyone, regardless of national origin, religious belief, or
social origin. For 186 years, the university has witnessed a changing world and major turning points in history. In 1832, the first classes are held at Clinton Hill, near City Hall in Lower Manhattan. A law school is established in three years. A medical school was founded in 1841.In 1894, the university building was demolished, and the construction of the main building began, later renamed the Silver Center. In 1917, the United States entered World War I, the number of students at the university was reduced and the budget was limited. Chancellor Brown creates branches of the student army training corps during the war, helping to save the school from financial ruin. In 1929, the stock market crashes on Black Tuesday and the Great Depression begins. In the years that followed, Chancellor Chase founded the Department of Continuing Education, the Center for Research and Graduate Studies, and the School of Public Service to continue teaching at the university despite the dire economic situation.
The September 11, 2001 attack on the World Trade Center caused shock at the university, which since 1998 has occupied several downtown buildings as dormitories.
New York University alumni

90,000 NYU is … What is NYU?
New York University (eng. New York University, NYU ) is a private US research university located in New York.
The University is the largest non-profit private research university in the United States.There are 39 408 students enrolled in it (as of autumn 2004).
New York University is a member of the Association of American Universities, which unites leading research universities in North America since 1900.
New York University consists of 16 schools, institutes and colleges.
The main campus of the university is located in Greenwich Village in Manhattan, New York.

History
New York University was founded on April 21, 1831 by a group of influential New Yorkers, including former US Treasury Secretary Albert Gallatin, considered the founding father of the university. In contrast to the East Coast universities, it had to be accessible to all classes, especially the working class, and all religious denominations.The universities of Paris, Vienna and University College London served as a model. The concept of education assumed, in contrast to the accepted classical concept, the presence of new educational courses, for example, economic policy, history and modern languages. The university has retained this position today. Nepotism and heredity in the teaching staff, as well as the distribution of high marks to wealthy students are not familiar to this educational institution.
For the first two years, the university rented premises in Clinton Hall, then in 1833 it acquired land in Washington Square.Intensive construction began. In 1835, the School of Law, the first professional school of the university, was opened.
In 1894, a second university building appeared in the Bronx, next to Columbia University. The College of Arts and Sciences was moved here, as well as the School of Engineering.
The original name of the City University of New York was changed in 1896 to New York University.
In the early 1970s, the university was on the verge of bankruptcy, but managed to cope with difficulties.Today, the university is the third largest owner of real estate in New York after the city hall and the Catholic Church.
During the 1960s and 1970s, New York University students took an active part in protests, first against black students and then the Vietnam War.

University campus
French house
The main building of the university is located in Greenwich Village, one of the oldest neighborhoods in New York in Washington Square. It consists of the Elmer Horms Bobst Library, Silver Building (main building), Brown Building, Eudson Hall Block ( Block Judson Hall ), Vanderbilt Hall ( Vanderbilt Hall ) and Townhouse Row ( Townhouse Row ). Kaufman Management Center ( Kaufman Management Center ) and Torch-Klaba ( Torch Club ).
Behind Washington Square there is a campus, consisting of houses for the teaching staff and the so-called “international houses” – student residences (for example, German House – Das Deutsche Haus, French House – La Maison Francaise, Italian House – Casa Italiana and others ).
Several more buildings have appeared in recent years:
The Kimmel Center is the main center for all student activities. All major university events, awards and premieres take place here.With 2,200 seats, the Skorball Center is one of the largest theaters in New York City.
Furman Hall was named after university graduate Jay Furman. There are auditoriums, reading rooms, the clinical base of the School of Law Sciences, as well as teaching staff apartments.
Bobst Library – library for 2000 places. It is visited by 6800 readers daily, and gives out about a million books annually.
Bobst Library
University library
The Elmer Horms Bobst Library, built in 1967-1972, is the largest university library and one of the largest research libraries in the United States.
The library fund contains 4.5 million books, 20,000 magazines, more than 3.5 million microfilms and several thousand other media.
The library, with a capacity of 2,000, is visited daily by more than 6,800 people, and almost a million books are lent out a year.
The library has one of the largest audio and video centers in the world, where students and scientists use more than 95,000 audio and video recordings annually.
Tackle
The enrollment of students at the university, regardless of the faculty, is carried out very selectively.According to surveys among applicants, the university was named “the number one dream university”, and in 2004 and 2005 it received the largest number of applications for admission in America.
The number of foreign students at the university is also the largest in the country: about 4,000 students from more than one hundred countries of the world.
Student life
University mascot
The university has more than 350 student clubs and organizations, as well as sports teams, scientific associations and creative groups.
The University publishes several publications: the daily newspaper Washington Square News, the comic magazine Playg, literary magazines Washington Square Review and Minetta Review, as well as about 100 books annually
The university also maintains student traditions. At the beginning of the 20th century, a tradition of initiation into students emerged. So, in the building in the Bronx, freshmen were caught and dipped in a drinking bowl for horses. The student who was first dipped there with his head was unanimously recognized as a “fountain of knowledge.”This kind of initiation existed until the 70s. Nowadays, freshmen take part in the University Open Doors Week event. In addition, the university traditionally hosts Apple Festival (themed folk festival), Purple Ball (dancing in the library atrium), Strawberry Festival (culminating in the longest strawberry pie in New York) and twice a year Midnight breakfast before the start of the session.
The sports teams of the university are called “Violets” (or “Violet”, depending on the translation).
