I would change the architecture of the residence halls. The singles of the towers are too isolating. One experience I will always remember is throwing the Frisbee in the Liberty Republic courtyard. I spend most of my time hanging out with my friends and getting my work done.

The frequent student complaints circle around the fact that we can only use our mealpoints on campus. Additionally, the campus food (Lackmann) overcharges.

Hofstra is a great place. The landscape and set up of campus is really nice and the people are really friendly. The university lacks a college-town but NYC is very close by. The nearness of NYC opens many opportunities that many other college students dont have. If i please I can go and have a picnic in Central Park on the weekend or go see a Broadway show after class one day. The administration gets to be a bit annoying at times, but what school doesnt have annoying administration? Students of Hofstra are really glad to be here.

The one thing that I absolutely love about the Hof is the campus grounds. This is the time of year when the weather is getting nicer and everything is in bloom. It really is a beautiful campus. When people hear the word "Hofstra" come out of my mouth, they say one of two things: "Good school" or "Expensive". Hofstra costs an arm and a leg and they take money from you wherever they can... administration is a pain and they always seem to screw you over. Like I said before, the campus is pretty...

The best thing about Hofstra are the students. They are really nice. One thing I'd change is the food prices. The school is just the right size. People ask me if I dorm there since I live so close. I spend most of my time within the Liberty/Republic area since there is always someone to hang around with and something to do. There is a lot of pride, it is in our team names. People say Hofstra looks like an amusement park.

The best thing about Hofstra is the community. Everyone is so nice, helpful and involved. Everyone really cares. Hofstra is the perfect size. There aren't so many people that you get lost in the crowd, but also there is enough so that it's not like you know everyone. There's always things going on and always free food.

Bevan

The people I met are amazing. There should be more diversity on campus. I spend most of my time in the lounge.

Mary

One of the things i would change is the advisement team. Alot of them give advice that completely conflicts with others and, especially when scheduling or working out student loans you have to figure it out for yourself.

Jessica

The best thing about hofstra is the atmosphere. Its a good sized school but you run into everyone you know, the staff is friendly and helpful.
