NYU Campus Update: Research Symposium, Career Events, Arts Highlights, Sports Wins & Weather Alerts (Oct 13–20)

Hey Bobcats, it's Jenny with your Campus Update for October 13 through October 20. Let's get you set for the week—fast. First up—the Simons Center Postdoctoral Research Symposium is happening today, October 13, at the Silver Center for Arts & Science, Room 104. It's an all-day event showcasing cutting-edge research. Next, on October 16, the Wasserman Center is hosting a virtual event titled "Career Conversations: Philanthropy and Foundations Careers" from 5 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. A great opportunity to explore career paths in the nonprofit sector. And don't miss the "Counter-cartographies: Neurodivergence and the Errancies of Performance" book talk with Leon Hilton on October 16. It's a deep dive into performance theory and disability studies. This past weekend, our NYU men's soccer team clinched a thrilling 2-1 victory over their rivals, with sophomore forward Alex Chen scoring the decisive goal in the final minutes. Looking ahead, the women's volleyball team has a home game this Friday at 7 p.m. in the Coles Sports Center. Let's pack the stands and show our support! The "Reflections in Black: A Reframing" exhibition is now open at the Department of Photography & Imaging. It showcases a profound visual archive of Black image makers since the late nineteenth century. A must-see for art enthusiasts. Also, the New York Film Festival wraps up today, October 13. If you haven't caught any screenings yet, it's your last chance to experience some cinematic gems. For a quick bite between classes, check out the new food truck lineup on West 4th Street. From gourmet tacos to vegan delights, there's something for every palate. Starting today, expect windy conditions with periods of rain from a tropical rainstorm, which could lead to flooding and power outages. The rest of the week looks mostly sunny and breezy, with temperatures ranging from the mid-60s to low 70s. Pack an umbrella today and stay updated on weather alerts. Your move: register for the "Career Conversations: Philanthropy and Foundations Careers" event by October 15 to secure your spot. It's a valuable opportunity to network and learn about career paths in the nonprofit sector. That's your quick Campus Update. I'm Jenny—catch you next Monday morning.
