Mission
The Macaulay Art Tank is responsible for uniting Macaulay students from all campuses interested in arts opportunities and events in New York City. The Art Tank encourages and supports collaborative and interdisciplinary thinking, spontaneity, and creativity of all kinds. We aim to bring opportunities to students through museum/gallery trips and art-making workshops. Art Tank aims to build lasting connections between Macaulay and New York City Cultural Institutions.

Every Spring, the Macaulay Art Tank also curates Macaulay Arts Night. This initiative is one of Macaulay's biggest annual events, where a group of student curators transform the entire Macaulay Building into a giant art exhibition. The event serves as a showcase of Macaulay creative talent, featuring artwork, performances, interactive installations, and workshops. Arts Night aims to represent all Macaulay campuses through its curatorial team, artwork, and performances as a way of highlighting the diverse range of creative thinking within the Macaulay student body.

Mission
The Orientation Leaders/Peer Mentors help incoming Macaulay Honors College students
discover and pursue their passions and interests, adjust to life at Macaulay Honors College, and
develop the skills needed to become strong leaders within and outside Macaulay Honors College.
The Orientation Leaders/Peer Mentors pair new Macaulay Honors students with upper-class
mentors who will lead small group sessions designed to help students discover their passions and
interests and to set themselves up for postgraduate success. They will cultivate discussions about
model participation in an academic discussion through careful listening and incisive but
respectful speaking. Peer Mentors will also check in with students to ensure that they are thriving
in their college and extracurricular environment, and help connect the student to resources when
necessary.

Membership Benefits
Each new honors student is placed on a team led by one to two peer mentors. Mentors, who have
undergone a rigorous selection process, are committed to helping first-year students not only
adjust to college life, but also discover and pursue their passions and interests, and develop the
necessary skills to become great leaders on campus. Mentors and mentees meet regularly over
the course of the academic year through small group meetings and one on one check-ins.
