Running around NYC: A guide to the best running spots for Pace Students!

This year I will be finding the most convenient and scenic running spots around New York City for Pace students! While sidewalks and the Brooklyn Bridge are certainly an option, they can be very crowded and, at times, intimidating. My column will be all about exploring the best spots to get active in the city while simultaneously finding that stress-relief outlet from the craziness of being a New York City college student.

Pace is the Place

When applying to colleges, every school offers the same things. They have the same programs, the same professors, and especially the same majors. As a political science major I was hard-pressed about what would suit me best, and what would be the best major for my university. In this column, I aim to explore the wide variety of majors at Pace to find out if they are the best for the students and school community. Ultimately asking the question: “Is Pace the place for you?”

      A Nature Girl’s Guide to NYC

      In the concrete jungle, it can be hard to connect with the environment. It’s easier to find high rises than grass, and this can be difficult for students—especially those that don’t come from cities—to feel at home. However, there’s more places than one might think to experience the outdoors as long as you’re willing to look for them. Follow along as I explore and review the best nature the city has to offer.

      City on a Budget

      I am going to be writing about different events/locations around the city that celebrate culture and are affordable for those who are on a budget. The first article is going to be about the Queens Night Market, where all items have a price cap of $5 or $6. Next semester, I will be going abroad in Rome, so I’m going to be continuing the columns about affordable places abroad.

      I am going to be writing about different books that I read throughout the year; I love reading and it’s been a hobby of mine for a long time.

      Welcome to Pace!
      Starting college can come with a lot of surprises. There are a lot of questions I didn’t even know to ask when I arrived at Pace in the fall of 2023. Questions like “how do I cook on campus?” and “what is Honors culture, exactly?” and “what is there to do in the city?” My column aims to explore all that and more as I unpack the things I wish I’d known when I first started.

      I’m Jay. [awkward silence] Do you like theatre? Oh, you don’t? Well, do you like movies? Oh, you don’t? Well, do you like oddly specific information on a variety of oddly specific topics? You do!? Well then, we’re gonna get along just fine.
