eliminate the problem entirely. drive it home. or see if the airport you are flying out of has a service whereby they take care of your car while you are gone. some will start the vehicle daily for you and keep the snow and ice cleaned off. dunno about the cost for that though.
other than that, I'd take it to your friend in NYC. not only will it get driven semi-regularly, but also it should (assuming you trust his/her judgement) be safe from getting stolen.
if you decide to leave it at school, take out the battery and put it in your apartment while you are gone. this serves two functions. first, when you return, it will not be ice-cold and therefore resistant to starting the vehicle. second, it makes the car MUCH harder to steal (unless they use a tow truck, that is).
another good suggestion is to put some dry-gas treatment in your tank a couple days before you leave, being sure to drive the car some to allow it to get all the way through your fuel system. this will help prevent fuel line freeze-up.
