Is NYU catching much of this?

If it is, they're hiding it very well. I'm working at home today but I don't
think that there would be much activity on "campus" even if people were
into demonstrating.  Let's consider what NYU is presenting to the world:

From the "official" NYU student newspaper: nothing, maybe tomorrow:
http://nyunews.com/

From the "unofficial" NYU student newspaper: nothing, maybe tomorrow:
http://nyulocal.com/
NOTE: the focus is on different schools at NYU engaging in a no confidence
vote of president Sexton.

From the home page of the Stern School of Business: nothing, maybe tomorrow:
http://www.stern.nyu.edu/index.htm

Miller is in the "Business & Society Program Area" at Stern; nothing, maybe tomorrow:
http://www.stern.nyu.edu/experience-stern/about/departments-centers-initiatives/academic-departments/business-society-program/index.htm

Now, it is possible that all hell has broken loose on NYU Twitter but there
is nothing on Stern's official twitter feed:
https://twitter.com/NYUStern

Maybe student Twitter accounts are abuzz with activity but I'm not on Twitter
so I wouldn't know.  NYU Admin hasn't even sent out an email about the
"Miller Affair" (which is not surprising as I haven't yet figured out what it takes
for the admin to send out emails outside of apocalyptic events).

He seems to have caused a virtual uproar at UNM.
The psychology department chair has posted a "response" and clarification and
they've announced, with expected lack of clarity, an "investigation of the
matter".

See, Miller's "day job" is at UNM while Miller appears to be slumming at NYU
(or possibly setting up a more to NYU though not after this incident). I expect that UNM is justifiably more concerned with the behavior of their tenured faculty
then NYU will be with respect to a visiting prof.

So, maybe NYU will simply ignore the whole thing and hope that everyone forgets
about the incident.  I think it's another story at UNM.
