While David Lasala and Jonathan Bowen were presenting I was impressed by their attention to detail when it came to looking at diversity within their game. They also paid a lot of attention to the diversity among those playing their game, as to avoid implementation bias for those with specific needs for sight, sound, or physical needs.
NYU’s Office of Sustainability overlaps a lot with D&T especially when looking at the areas most impacted by “green” issues are BIPOC. One of the biggest problems with being sustainable is that those options are usually more expensive and when you’re on a tight budget you can’t afford to purchase the sustainable options when the easy, cheap options are worse for the environment. It was nice to see an NYU office dedicated to making the school more sustainable, however, most of the change I’ve seen has been on the main campus, but they have been pushing Tandon to be more sustainable over the last year.
