Social Media and Social Change
In 1919, The New School opened its doors to all "intelligent men and women" committed to studying the "grave social, political, economic, and educational problems of the day." The university's historical commitment to the arts and progressive education, combined with its activist mission, draws students and faculty who are committed to social change and the creative means to incite it. Media are tools for change, and the MA program in Media Studies offers a host of courses that examine how media have been employed in building communities, promoting reform, and creating awareness of today's grave problems, as well as courses that prepare students to create transformative media.
