  1. Go to the nail salon

Thinking about a spa day? You deserve to treat yourself, get your nails done and try a spa manicure and pedicure this time. Nothing better than fresh claws! (A great local spot is Affina, conveniently located on 88 Fulton St)

  1. Relax at South Street Seaport

Beginning of the semester and stressed out already? Take a walk to South Street Seaport, minutes from Pace University! Listen to the sound of the water, relax and immerse yourself in a good book. Spring break will be here before you know it!

  1. See a Broadway show

There is always something new to see on Broadway so this makes shows a great option! For ticket discounts, check out TKTS booths (we have one located at 199 Water St) or look for student discounts online.

  1. Check out a museum

Immerse yourself in the culture of New York City! Check out The MET, The Guggenheim, The Whitney and many more. Many museums have free admission days as well as student discounts, just check out their websites and don’t forget your school ID!

  1. Indulge in Max Brenner’s restaurant

Are you a chocolate lover? If you answered yes, then Max Brenner’s is the place for you. Located in Union Square (one stop one the express 4/5 line near Pace), this restaurant has all the chocolaty goodness you could ever dream of. 

Happy 2017!

Hey guys, my name is Cas. I am a Senior at Pace Univeristy on the NYC campus. I am currently working on a dual degree in Communications and Fine Arts. I've been working with some friends of mine to start up our own creative platform called FUNKNVIBE. It's basically a way for artists, musicians, film makers and any creative minds to collaborate and create. When I'm not volunteering or with my FNV family I'm reading, dancing or working on my latest art piece. I hope to own and design my own publication showcasing the culture around me. I have a personal blog as well as my Her Campus page. I recently started up a blog with FunknVibe so definitely check it out!  I started out as the secretary at for HCPace but moved my way to VP and CC to now President. I love being able to give students on my campus a voice and connect new students to some type of a community. Her Campus has allowed me to organize myself better and find out what goes into running an organization. It's been an absolute joy and I hope for my last year we have one of the best!
