Hofstra Hosts 2016 Presidential Debate
Hundreds of community members joined students, faculty and staff on campus as Hofstra University hosted the first presidential debate between candidates Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton on September 26, 2016. The University hosted two public watch parties where local residents and other visitors could view the debate, as well as more than 25 free public events in the two weeks before the debate. The events included lectures, panel discussions, film screenings and workshops on topics ranging from race relations and foreign policy to public education and infrastructure. Speakers included prominent scholars, journalists and political figures such as Democratic strategist and former chief White House advisor David Axelrod, former governor of Louisiana and Republican presidential candidate Bobby Jindal, CNN political commentator Sally Kohn, and Georgetown University sociology professor and author Michael Eric Dyson. Students from more than a dozen Long Island high schools, including Hempstead High School and Uniondale High School,
also participated in a full day of special programming that included a media panel, historical performances, a live ABC News broadcast and debate viewing. In addition to providing students with a once-in-a-lifetime educational experience, debate programming allowed community members to be directly involved in the democratic process and provided an in-depth look at the most pressing issues in this election cycle. Hofstra University previously hosted presidential debates in 2008 between then-Senator Barack Obama and Senator John McCain and in 2012 between then-President Obama and Mitt Romney, former governor of Massachusetts. Hofstra is the only university to ever host three consecutive presidential debates, and its 2016 debate was the most watched debate in American television history.

CAMPUS AND COMMUNITY NEWS
Hofstra Gives Back Hofstra University has again been named to the President’s Higher Education Community Service Honor Roll for its “exemplary” community service programs – the eighth consecutive year the University has been awarded federal recognition for civic engagement and volunteerism. Honorees are chosen based on multiple factors, including the percentage of students participating in service projects and programs, the school’s commitment to campus-community partnerships, and measurable outcomes as the result of student service. Most recently, about 300 students volunteered to help with the first U.S. presidential debate between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton, which Hofstra hosted on September 26, 2016.
Almost 700 students from 55 campus organizations volunteered for this year’s Shake-A-Rake community cleanup effort on Saturday, November 19 – the most in the program’s seven-year history. Students representing a wide variety of groups, including athletics, club sports, fraternities and sororities, commuting students, and student government, traveled around neighboring Uniondale and Hempstead to rake leaves at more than 50 homes of elderly or disabled neighbors. The efforts were also recognized in Newsday. “It’s up to our generation to step up and give back,” said sophomore Daniel Frankel, a finance major from Walpole, Massachusetts. “We live in a community that has all ages, and ultimately it’s important that we get involved.” The students also cleared the 1.5-acre yard of the John J. Byrne Community Center in Uniondale. Its president, David Greaves, said that Hofstra students were “shining lights” in the community. Resident Mary-Rose Waldron has benefited from the program for several years. “This morning, Hofstra’s women’s field hockey team made my front and back lawns look pristine.
What a relief!” she said. “How accommodating these young women are! Thanks again for a welcome and appreciated community program.” The annual Shake-A-Rake program aims to connect Hofstra University with those in need in the surrounding neighborhoods. In the winter, the Office of Commuting Student Services and Community Outreach also offers the Snow Angels program, in which student volunteers shovel snow for local seniors. For more information, email Anita.Ellis@hofstra.edu.

Hofstra administrators Anita Ellis and Teresa Grella-Hillebrand were each named “Distinguished Community Visionary” at the Hempstead-based Cameron Civic Association’s 20th anniversary awards luncheon in December. “Both Anita and Teresa do so much to make the community a better place to live,” said Carole Johnson, the association’s president. “They are each a valuable resource on issues that are important to us, and we appreciate their efforts to improve the quality of life for all.” “ Both Anita and Teresa do so much to make the community a better place to live.” Teresa GrellaHillebrand (third from left) and Anita Ellis (second from right) pose with town officials and Cameron Civic Association members. 2

Ellis, the director of the Office of Commuting Student Services and Community Outreach, oversees several student-driven volunteer efforts throughout the year to help the local community, including the annual Shake-A-Rake and Snow Angels cleanup efforts as well as holiday donation drives. She is a familiar face at community events, and serves as a liaison between the University, students, and local residents and organizations.
Grella-Hillebrand is the director of the Counseling and Mental Health Professions (CMHP) Clinic at the Saltzman Community Services Center at Hofstra University, as well as an adjunct instructor in the School of Health Professions and Human Services’ Marriage and Family Therapy graduate program. For the past three years, she, along with staff and interns from the CMHP clinic, has run multiple support groups for men, women and teens on Friday nights at Antioch Baptist Church in Hempstead.

Helping Families at Holiday Time Students and faculty in the Physician Assistant Studies program collected 420 non-perishable items in its annual food drive to help Hempstead families and senior citizens in need. The donated items were distributed last fall through the EAC Network, a nonprofit human services agency with 73 programs across Long Island and New York City. “One of the PA Studies program’s goals is to instill a desire among its students to serve populations with limited access to quality care,” said Karly Silverman, Class of 2018, outreach chair for the Hofstra chapter of the Student Academy of the American Academy of Physician Assistants (SAAAPA). “By participating in drives like this every year, we help meet that goal while also serving those in need in our community.”
“ Our friends in Hofstra’s SAAAPA stepped away from their books to collect food and gave needy seniors and families a reason to be thankful for the holidays.”
The EAC Network is always grateful for the students’ help every year, said Carol O’Neill, senior director of senior and nutritional services, who oversees its Meals on Wheels and food pantry programs. “Our friends in Hofstra’s SAAAPA stepped away from their books to collect food and gave needy seniors and families a reason to be thankful for the holidays,” she said. Over the last four years, the group has collected a total of 2,700 items through the drives.
Hofstra University collected about 1,000 items for donation as part of the seventh annual holiday drive to benefit the Mary Brennan Interfaith Nutrition Network (INN), a nonprofit agency in Hempstead that provides food, shelter and social programs to disadvantaged individuals and families across Long Island. Items ranging from diapers and toiletries to blankets and children’s outfits were loaded up by the drive captains and sent over to the INN in December.
In November, students from Hofstra’s Catholic Campus Ministry volunteered at nearby St. Martha’s Parish, where they helped unload and sort tons of grocery items donated by the local community for families in need. Several Hofstra departments worked together to provide gifts for neighboring schoolchildren during the holiday season. The Office of Commuting Student Services and Community Outreach, as well as the Division of Student Affairs, Hofstra Bookstore, Hofstra Hillel, Circle K, and the Commuting Student Association collected and donated about 150 items, which were given to young children who live in the Fulton Manor apartment complex in Hempstead. Each child received one toy and one practical item such as a hat, scarf or gloves. 3
CAMPUS AND COMMUNITY NEWS
Medical Scholars Celebrate New Beginnings Almost 60 students, including three from Hempstead High School and eight from Uniondale High School, participated in the seventh annual Hofstra Northwell School of Medicine’s Medical Scholars Pipeline Program (MSPP) from June 27 to July 21 last summer. The program is a four-year, four-week initiative designed to expose high-achieving minority high school students from underserved areas to careers in the healthcare professions. Top, 2016 MSPP participants. Left, Uniondale resident Britney Nathan, an MSPP graduate and first-year medical student.
This year’s MSPP closing festivities featured an inspiring keynote address by Louis Auguste, MD, a clinical professor of surgery at the School of Medicine and a surgical oncologist in practice for nearly 35 years at Northwell Health. “Because of your hard work, your determination, and because you have chosen to seize every opportunity to better yourselves, make no mistake about it — you will be the leaders of tomorrow; you will be the agents of change,” said Dr. Auguste, a native of Haiti. With ongoing support from the Pinkerton Foundation, an independent organization that supports academic programming for economically disadvantaged students, 2016 MSPP students participated in information sessions and campus tours at Hofstra University and Stony Brook University, and enjoyed an educational excursion to the Oyster Bay Marine Education Center. Students also served as volunteers in the PEACE (Patient Engagement and Communication Enhancement) program at the Long Island Jewish Medical Center, and participated in a new initiative in collaboration with Northwell Health’s Monter Cancer Center designed to teach communication skills and ways to connect with patients dealing with cancer treatment and chronic illness. On campus at the School of Medicine, the young scholars expanded their healthcare knowledge during interactive lectures with School of Medicine faculty and Northwell physicians; learned about anatomy through fitness training; studied techniques, tools and approaches to patient care; and made critical connections with mentors in various professions and all walks of life.
First-year scholars also became CPR/AED certified, while high school junior and senior students received academic assistance from a professional college consultant and completed P/SAT test prep courses. Rising college freshmen rounded out their MSPP experience by completing a Mini Medical School based on Hofstra Northwell’s innovative curriculum called Patient-Centered Explorations in Active Reasoning, Learning and Synthesis (PEARLS), a student-driven class that uses problem- and case-based learning scenarios as a forum for active reasoning, collaboration and discussion. The 2016 MSPP graduates included 13 students who headed off to studies at institutions such as St. John’s University School of Pharmacy and Dartmouth College. These freshmen and aspiring healthcare professionals are following the lead set forth by MSPP alumna Britney Nathan of Uniondale, who returned last fall to the Hofstra Northwell School of Medicine as a first-year medical student. “I applied to many [medical] schools and had a decision to make about which school I would attend,” said Nathan, a Hofstra University graduate and among the first students to complete the Medical Scholars Pipeline Program. “I remembered the relationships and nurturing mentors that I gained during my five-year exposure to this institution – and I knew that I just could not leave.”
On January 13, 2017, Medical Scholars Pipeline Program participant and Uniondale High School senior Sashane John was honored at Northwell Health’s annual Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. memorial ceremony and awarded a scholarship for her academic achievements. She also played the African-American National Anthem, “Lift Every Voice and Sing,” on the keyboard during the ceremony, which was held at North Shore University Hospital.

A BOO-tiful Halloween Disney princesses, superheroes, ruby slipper-wearing Dorothys, firefighters, cuddly animals and even a mini-Hillary Clinton showed up to the Halloween party of the Diane Lindner-Goldberg Child Care Institute (CCI) at the Joan and Arnold Saltzman Community Services Center. Hofstra mascots Kate and Willie made a surprise appearance, and the Hofstra Pep Band got little feet moving. Every year CCI hosts a Halloween parade on the playground for the children and their families. CCI focuses on the child’s total development – social, emotional, cognitive and physical. The program offers developmentally appropriate activities for children aged 8 weeks to 5 years, providing opportunities for hands-on, integrated learning. CCI has been reaccredited by the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC), the leading organization of early childhood professionals. Nationwide, only 8 percent of all preschools and other early childhood programs are NAEYC-accredited. For more information, visit hofstra.edu/childcare.
Learning to Lead Students from Uniondale High School attended a Ladder to Leadership workshop organized by students of the Frank G. Zarb School of Business and School of Education where they worked together to discuss and cultivate their passions. With help from their Hofstra mentors, the students developed art to showcase their commonalities and aspirations. They also discussed ways to overcome issues that affect their generation. Almost 300 students from 15 Long Island high schools, including Uniondale High School, attended Hofstra’s annual High School Student Press Day in December. They heard from a panel of journalists, including reporters from Newsday and News 12 Long Island, about their experiences and challenges covering the 2016 presidential race. Students attended workshops on TV and investigative journalism, social media, videojournalism, and how to build a strong resume as a student journalist as well. Teachers and advisors also had a chance to discuss journalism education on Long Island with Scott Brinton, executive editor at Herald Community Newspapers and adjunct professor at Hofstra. adder to Leadership and Press Day are just two of L Hofstra’s Regional Scholars programs, which offer local talented middle school and high school students the opportunity to explore new academic interests with Hofstra professors and college students as mentors to gain an understanding of what college-level work entails. Other programs include the High School Shakespeare Program, Dance for the Day, Hofstra Long Island Regional Teacher Stacie Locurto, second Scripps Spelling Bee, Model United Nations, from left, with some of her and Summer Science Research Program.

Van Jordan has published four books of poetry: The Cineaste: Poems, Quantum Lyrics, M-A-C-N-O-L-I-A, and Rise. His poetry is influenced by music, film, race, history and pop culture. His most recent book, The Cineaste, marries his love of film with poetry in pieces that re-examine a wide range of seminal films such as Nosferatu (1922), The Homesteader (1919), Run Lola Run (1998), and Oldboy (2003) through the perspectives of both the voyeur and the character onscreen. Jordan has been awarded the Anisfield-Wolf Book Award, Lannan Literary Award, and Whiting Writers’ Award, as well as fellowships from the John Simon Guggenheim Foundation and United States Artists, among others. He currently teaches in Warren Wilson College’s MFA Program for Writers and serves as the Henry Rutgers Presidential Professor at Rutgers University-Newark.

Orlean’s most recent book, Rin Tin Tin, explores the life and legacy of the iconic German shepherd. In The Orchid Thief — the national bestseller that inspired the Academy Award-winning film Adaptation directed by Spike Jonze — Orlean delves into the life of John Laroche, a charismatic schemer once convicted of trying to steal endangered orchids from a state preserve in southern Florida. Meryl Streep, who portrayed Orlean in the film, was nominated for an Academy Award. Orlean’s work has inspired another successful film: Blue Crush, the story of young women surfing in Maui.

Danny Lyon: Memories of the Southern Civil Rights Movement January 31-April 13, 2017 • Organized by art2art Circulating Exhibitions Based upon Danny Lyon’s memoir, this exhibition brings together the photographs he took from 1962 to 1964 while traveling through the United States documenting the civil rights movement. Lyon began his photographic career as the first staff photographer for the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC), a national group of college students who joined together in 1960 after the first sit-in by four African American college students at a North Carolina lunch counter. With this body of work, Danny Lyon helped define a form of photojournalism in which the image maker is deeply and personally embedded in his subject matter.

New Law Clinic Aids Veterans The Maurice A. Deane School of Law and its Gitenstein Institute for Health Law and Policy have launched a new Veterans Law Clinic, an innovative program designed to assist local veterans in obtaining the disability and health care benefits to which they are entitled. Eight law students will partner with expert attorneys on legal proceedings and also participate in a pre-clinic boot camp designed to expose them to nuanced military culture and to dispel myths and misconceptions about veterans returning from active duty — all in an effort to help students form deeper bonds with their veteran clients.
To assure that veterans participating in the clinic receive ancillary services when and where they need them, the Gitenstein Institute will launch a series of strategic alliances with Hofstra University’s programs in public health, Zarb School of Business, Hofstra Northwell School of Medicine, and Joan and Arnold Saltzman Community Services Center. In addition, the Gitenstein Institute has been selected for participation in the Starbucks’ Military Mondays program. This partnership, the first of its kind in New York, provides the Institute with secure, client-confidential space in the Starbucks near Hofstra’s campus as well as resources each month for meetings between legal counsel, law students and veterans seeking military benefits.
To schedule an appointment with the Veterans Law Clinic, contact Lauri Thacher at Lauri.Thacher@hofstra.edu or 516-463-5934.
