Gary and Scotty's Group:

From what I've seen at the past in other universities, a good way to kick-off a birthday celebration would be to incorporate a fireworks celebration. Whether we can launch some modest ones off of TC itself, or a more elaborate display over the Hudson River. Possibly hold a Saturday festival in Riverside Park, ending with fireworks at night. Just a way to make the birthday more lively.

We could possibly block off the W 120th street between broadway and amsterdam to hold a kick-off festival, bring in resources that would attract people. Whatever we can do to utilize outdoor space will be a nice way to start the celebration.

To incorporate more of NYC in the celebration, we can organize a sponsored walk or scavenger hunt starting at the original location of TC and ending at the current location. This would be interactive, fun, and would attract many different types of people.

Organizing a casino night. It is fun, can generate good amounts of funding, and can incorporate the history of TC. The theme of this casino night could be the era at which it was founded (late 1800's).

For activities that are longer lasting, we can have a TC history question of the week. People can put in their answer, and winners are chosen. Rewards for winners could be free tickets at the Apollo! Maybe a dozen or so students could win.

Create a point system per TC history event. Each event that will be hosted as a point value, and students can strive to get as many points as possible. These points can enter you in for a chance to win tickets to the Apollo.

For teachers, host free workshops hosted by sponsors. Host one workshop a month, for each month of the TC anniversary.

Universities: Duncan, Lu

- Inviting Secretary of Education Department to give a speech
- Academic Forum
- Fundraising: holding an exhibition for art crafts made by children and selling these artworks.
- Creating a documentary about the history of TC or a reality show "one day of exploring TC".

Mingoro and I have another idea! A video competition open to the public! We put out a call for people to make videos about why they value their education! Then we somehow convince NBC to play it during primetime television hour and we say the videos are in honor of TC's 125th year anniversary! Then the videos are available through NLT so people can watch them on mobile platforms, ipads, desktops, etc!

Mingoro also suggested a dance competition, to generate excitement over the 15 month celebration. The dance competition can be between different high schools to show that arts education is important (insert rock&roll forever foundation)

Sharath and Rebecca H.:

We found a few that were really interesting:

Harvard for their 375th Anniversary did a lot of interesting things including:
-A photo book that was sold including images from the archives (we have extensive photo archives and the rights to the images), think a pretty coffee table book.

-Harvard Stories, a video series of students, faculty, and alumni talking about the institution

-Harvard Voices (hosted on iTunesU) with audio recordings from famous speakers who had given speeches at Harvard

Hofstra University did one thing as part of their 75th anniversary celebrations that was really interesting:
-Model classes, taught by current faculty and open to the public to see what goes on at the college

There was also a list of events from University of Maryland that also included the photo book and other standard events (like exhibits and lectures)
