Three Bullet Points About You:

>    I have participated in many events brought to our alumni and students by the CUAA, including the CUAA’s Annual Holiday Parties, CUAA@AllSouls, CUAA@McSorley’s, CUAA@190 Broadway, CUAA@Orientation/Peter Cooper Movie Night 2015, and the wonderfully successful Founder’s Day 2014 & 2015/Peter Cooper Block Party.

>    ‘I have endeavored to remember that the object of life is to do good.’ ~Peter Cooper. These are words I choose to live by, and why I continue to be an active member of the CUAA. It is worth it–this struggle to preserve The Cooper Union, for future generations.
