Fair enuff Justine... but I do feel that on the whole NYU's MARKETING effect on the city is less about education but more about 'pitching' kids to come to the city. There is NO Reason why nyu students housing should be prioritized over people that have lived here for years who now no longer can even afford to live here.. thats whats sad. If u look in the UK for example as I said students are the ones sent to regenerate areas that are in decline, pushing the student income into those areas has shown to really help. And as the students are all just 'transient' anyway it really helps.
