Hofstra University Top Questions

After the first year, we all formed clicks and now just "deal with eachother".

The students at Hofstra University are quite a diverse group. I have met many people who are passionate about many environmental issues. And at the same time, there are also many people who wish to pursue a career in media. Those students are quite gifted and creative. The school is made up of many out of state residents, but at the same time has a high commuter population.

Fun and Helpful

They care about their class rank but at the same time they help each other out to excel in that particular class.

The classes are small, so you get to know the people in your classes. There's a variety of people, so you'll meet some you'll become great friends with, and a few that you can't get along with. There are a lot of music, theater, business/international business, communications majors around.

Some are boring some are cool.

Classmates can seem to come from all walks of life. I sit next to a lot of what have been come to be known as "Hofstra girls," the party girls that all have the same hair and the same jackets and the same lack of pants - here at Hofstra, they love their leggings. But it turns out they're not the only population! I love the diversity of attitudes that I've found in my classes. The students that aren't wearing the leggings (or, for the men, the sports jackets) are artists, intellectuals, gamers, comedians, writers...

The inspiration my classmates provides help me achieve more with the classroom and also in my everyday quandaries .

They spend more time socializing than on their academics.

My classmates are mostly smart, and are competitive, but there are some that bring down the rest of us and are unwilling to do the work that is neccessary.
