Futures Initiative

The Futures Initiative aims to advance greater equity and innovation in higher education. Housed at the Graduate Center and reaching throughout the CUNY community, the Futures Initiative empowers the next generation of intellectual leaders with bold, public, and engaged teaching and learning. The Futures Initiative fosters greater understanding of the complexities of the higher education landscape by spearheading qualitative and quantitative research in areas such as academic labor practices and reward systems, open-access multimedia publishing, data visualization and interpretation, and institutional change. Through HASTAC@CUNY (a hub of the online network Humanities, Arts, Science and Technology Alliance and Collaboratory), the Futures Initiative extends its collaborative peer-to-peer practices across institutions, disciplines, national boundaries, and economic and social disparities, promoting reinvestment in higher education as a public good.

Python Users\’ Group (PUG) meeting, October 15th

  • Python Users’ Group (or PUG for short) invites you all for our first meeting of the year! It is going to be on October 15, 6:30 pm to 8:30 pm in the GC Digital Scholarship Lab (Room 7414). We will make sure to have some pizza.

    PUG is an open and informal collaborative space for experimentation and exploration with the Python programming language. It is an opportunity for those interested in Python to come to the GC Digital Scholarship Lab to work together and find support. Whether you are looking for advice or assistance with new or current projects, looking to discuss and learn new skills using Python tools, or to join us to play around with our collection of sample datasets, PUG is your place!

    PUG is open to people of all skill levels, disciplines, and backgrounds. Complete beginners to Python will find a place here. Come, and let’s learn together.

    Registration is not required, although we encourage you to bring your own laptop.
