[School] NYU [Issue and Date] no response EVER...06/2007.....One wonders whether they received your application? My school's dossier services provider just sent my colleague's dossier to a school in the Midwest...when she applied to a school in Florida, with a completely different name. You might check to make sure your application was properly sent before black-listing a school? Dream on; I dropped it off in person. A measly email or formal rejection letter might have been nice. I've been blatantly ignored by NYU two times, so I doubt it's the fault of a dossier service or applicant. Ditto. No response whatsoever regarding American Studies application. Some mightly unprofessional folks there, one would presume. How long can their dubious uber-hipness insulate them from ordinary professionalism or common courtesy? Get with it, people, cause everybody knows. They only contact you if they decide to interview you. Otherwise, .... Had a campus interview (2008). Faculty was pleasant enough, but came out that many of them viewed their students as stupid. One faculty member actually said it, and no one disagreed. The acting dean was passive-aggressive during the interview. He didn't ask a question the whole time. The program is basically a community college in NYU, except all positions are contract ones. Tenure is never a possibility, and they just take advantage of the fact that they're in NYC so that they can get away with it. Are these references to the NYU-Gallatin School of Individualized study or some other program within NYU? NYU has a TERRIBLE record of exploiting non-tenure faculty!! Beware "Master Teachers," "Assistant Professor/Faculty Fellow" and "Adjunct" positions in which you will teach a full (or more) course load and be treated like you were a drop-out from a community college by your tenured and tenure-track colleagues. Master Teachers (General Studies) teach 3/3 load. If you expect to get any research/writing done, don't! In terms of tenure and pay, they disproportionately undervalue and pass over women and women of color. This is common knowledge about NYU but thought I'd share anyway. [Department]
