• Summer

  Summer building hours are in effect from Monday, May 18, 2020 - Sunday, August 30, 2020.

  Sustainability affects every decision we make, including our building hours. Reduced summer hours help consolidate cooling and operational needs-saving 153 metric tons of carbon annually.

  

  Help us make the world a better and greener place. Please mind the following:

  • AC systems begin shutting down approximately 1 hour prior to closing.
  • If your event will require AC to remain on later in the evening, please submit a request to extend building hours through netfacilities

  For more information on sustainability at The New School, visit the Tishman Environment Design Center or learn about our Sustainability Initiatives. Contact Erik Eibert with any carbon or energy-specific question.
