My Articles for the week...


Article 1.


N.Y.U. Protest




A group of students lead a protest at N.Y.U this week and they have made thier demands with a megaphone after barracading the doors with cafeteria tables. They included a full and annual reporting of the university’s operating budget, expenditures and endowment. The students also demanded that N.Y.U. provide 13 scholarships annually to students from the Gaza Strip and give surplus supplies to the Islamic University of Gaza. On the group’s Web site, it also asked that all participants in the protest be granted amnesty from punishment.




Article 2.
The film makers coop. might face a possible eviction after 50 years of service. But a real estate dispute has imperiled the future of the financially troubled organization. Last month the Film-Makers’ Cooperative received an eviction notice that would force it out of its office and archive in a building in TriBeCa, space that is controlled by the P.S.1 contemporary arts center another bulwark of the city’s avant-garde artistic establishment.
