Beginning as a collaboration between the NYU Shanghai Writing Department and students of NYU Shanghai’s Inaugural Class, On Century Avenue has bloomed into a thriving daily student publication. On Century Avenue is written, staffed, and managed entirely by a dedicated group of NYU Shanghai undergraduate students, who come from more than twelve different countries. With an interest in editorial, visual, audio, and literary works, On Century Avenue serves not only as a news source, but also as a platform for students to publish opinions and personal works. Though rooted within NYU Shanghai, On Century Avenue serves a bigger audience with its focus on NYU’s Global Network and the vibrant city of Shanghai. The current sections of the publication and their respective descriptions are listed below:
News
Designed for students of NYU Shanghai, News is a section that will be regularly updated to inform students of what is happening on campus and around the world. In this section, you can expect to find updates on global affairs, school policies, events, and more.
Opinion
Recognizing that everyone has a voice, On Century Avenue created the Opinions section as a forum where members of our readership can freely publish their opinions in hopes to start a continued dialogue.
Chinese & Global
Highlighting NYU Shanghai’s unique status as a half-international and half-Chinese university, Chinese & Global is a place where NYU Shanghai can share their experiences in Shanghai and abroad in any language they desire, including Chinese. This section is meant to not only empower student writers in their native language, but to engage readers from different cultural backgrounds.
Disclaimer: Opinions expressed in On Century Avenue are held solely by those who have written them. They should not be misconstrued as the opinions of our publication, the managing board, or NYU Shanghai as a whole.
