John Silva, the Beastie Boys' longtime manager, arranged a deal with NYU last month to give students in the program access to Oscilloscope Laboratories, the Beasties' West Village studio that (Adam) Yauch built with Matt Marinelli and Mark Edwards in 2002. Oscilloscope is one of four studios rented or owned by the program, which schools approximately 250 students from around the globe in the world of engineering, mixing, mastering, and studio production.
