<p>NYU’s Faculty of Arts and Sciences has authorized a no-confidence vote in University President John Sexton to be held in March. This is an unprecedented event in NYU’s history.</p>

<p>“It should now be clear to all that NYU’s faculty has lost its faith in this administration to lead NYU in a way that is educationally productive, inclusive and financially sound. The no confidence vote is a response to a pattern of top-down decision making by President Sexton and his administration that has produced a crisis in faculty governance at NYU,” said a faculty spokesman.</p>
