Comments on: NYU J-School is ANTI-Social Media? http://www.everyjoe.com/articles/nyu-j-school-is-anti-social-media/ Sports News - Tech Reviews - Entertainment - Life Tips for EveryJoe Fri, 04 Dec 2009 06:43:37 -0500 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: Jason Falls http://www.everyjoe.com/articles/nyu-j-school-is-anti-social-media/comment-page-1/#comment-324124 Jason Falls Fri, 03 Oct 2008 17:22:51 +0000 http://www.buzznetworker.com/nyu-j-school-is-anti-social-media/#comment-324124 This is yet another example of how ego-centric organizations (or cities for that matter) are so caught up with their self-importance they miss the rest of the world running by them. Because I'm at an ad agency in Louisville, Ky., I often remind clients or new client prospects that 95 percent of the U.S. doesn't live on either coast. If you want to reach most of the people, you can't be lost in Manhattan or the Sunset Strip. Sure, this is a U.S.-centric approach. But I would guess (with all do respect, CC) that there might be the same effect up north with regard to Toronto and/or Vancouver. (Report back. I'd love to know.) I applied to go to NYU out of high school (got accepted, couldn't affort it). It's still a fantastic educational institution. But it's also Woody Allen, Spike Lee, Robert DeNiro New York and seems to think the world revolves around it rather than the other way around. It's not the only one, but it's certainly sad that it's one at all.
