Mission The New School prepares students to understand, contribute to, and succeed in a rapidly changing society, and make the world a better and more just place. We will ensure that our students develop both the skills a sound liberal arts education provides, and the competencies essential for success and leadership in the emerging creative economy. We will also lead in generating practical and theoretical knowledge to better understand our world and improve conditions for local and global communities.
Description Forward-thinking educators founded The New School in 1919 to defy the intellectual constraints of traditional college education.
