CUSP Cultural Outings

CUSP Cultural Outings expose Scholars to the wealth of New York City's cultural and artistic community and thus help them forge a connection between their academic studies and the expression of art and culture in the City. These outings are always preceded by a dinner discussion facilitate by a CUSP Graduate Student Mentor (GSM) and at times culminating with a one-on-one with actors/director/playwright.
