CC'19 Memories
What was your favorite restaurant or bar in Morningside Heights? Is it still around or has it changed?
“Absolute Bagel, without a doubt. I STILL make my way up there when I want a bagel. It hasn’t changed and hopefully never will - although I wouldn’t mind if they started accepting credit cards.” – Alex Parkhurst
What/Who is the class or the professor that has stuck with you most?
My last class of my senior spring was Ethics with Prof. Michele Moody-Adams. She decided to close off the semester, and for many of us our college careers, by putting up a quote by Dr. Paul Farmer that said, “It is not intellectually shallow to have hope”. It was a final plea against succumbing to cynicism as we entered the “real world.” – Yobo Bello-Asemota
“Professor Kittay in the religion department singlehandedly made my academic experience worth the tuition”– Kevin Chu
Other campus favorites:
“Ken Jackson’s “History of the City of New York” class!”
“People-watching on Revson Plaza or the Steps on a sunny day.”
“Grabbing a quick bite at Absolute Bagels or Thai Market!”
