NYU President Andrew Hamilton Visits NYU Shanghai

In town for NYU Shanghai’s Candidate Weekend, NYU’s 16th President Andrew Hamilton also sat down with faculty and students. On Monday evening, with his wife Jennie Hamilton, NYU’s president spent time with over 400 NYU alumni, parents and friends. Before departing Tuesday for Abu Dhabi, he  sat down with local media (see coverage).

Commenting on NYU Shanghai during the alumni event, President Hamilton said, “NYU has realized what all of you in the city of Shanghai have known for a long time -- that to succeed in the world, in the 21st century, you must have an open outlook; you must be familiar with cultures other than your own.”
