Office of Multicultural Affairs Brings Back City Saturdays

Gabriel Solano, Featured Writer

This past Sunday Cornell Craig, Director of the Office of Multi-cultural Affairs, led Pace students to New York City as part of the office’s City Saturdays program.

The trip, which took students to walk across the Brooklyn Bridge, was postponed due to conflicting homecoming events. However, future scheduled events will return to their intended Saturday afternoons.

City Saturdays, which began last year, make use of Pleasantville’s Metro North station with round trip tickets provided at no cost to students.

These trips, according to Craig, are intended to give Westchester students an opportunity to explore and experience NYC.

“I like going to the city, and walking the Brooklyn Bridge is always nice to do; especially with friends” said Pace student Susan Harris.

Craig urges students to take advantage of City Saturdays, which will include an upcoming visit to New York’s Tenement Museum.
