My tribute to NYU

Under your tutelage, I grew in mind.
In your small economy, I earned and thrived.

You became my shrink, always a message away.
And a doctor in need, always an appointment away.

You offered me respite in summer, as I swam in your waters.
Welcoming our festivities like no other, you nestled all cultures.

You never put up with insincerity, and always empowered diversity.
Present for our interviews, late-night preparations or just the need for some calm, you were a safe haven in all our qualms.
