This is Hofstra University 

offered, including Ph.D., Ed.D., Psy.D., Au.D., 

and J.D. degrees, advanced certificates and 

professional diplomas, in more than 160 programs 

of study. 

Hofstra joined with North Shore-LIJ Health 

System in announcing plans to establish a medical 

school on the University campus in October 

2007. The new school, which is expected to enroll 

its first students in 2011, pending preliminary 

accreditation with the Liaison Committee on 

Medical Education and requisite New York State 

approval, will be the first allopathic (MD) medical 

school in Nassau County and the first in New 

York state since 1963. 

Hofstra University provides a dynamic college experience 

tailored for engaged and ambitious individuals. Students find 

their edge at Hofstra, through small classes, a faculty whose 

primary concern is teaching, cutting edge technology, extensive 

library resources, internships, and special educational programs 

that appeal to their interests and abilities. The Hofstra community is 

driven, dynamic and energetic, helping students find and focus their 

strengths to prepare them for a successful future. 

In its relatively short history, Hofstra has established itself as a 

world-class institution of higher education and cultural enterprise. 

Each academic year, the Hofstra campus and the programs offered 

grow and change to meet the demands of our students and our 

community. 

Hofstra opened in 1935 as a commuter school with all classes and 

offices housed in one building. Since those early days, Hofstra has 

evolved into an international institution with a student body hailing 

from 51 states and territories, and 73 countries around the world. 

The beautiful campus is an accredited arboretum with 113 buildings 

on 240 acres. There are approximately 4,200 students living on 

campus, and Hofstra offers them and all students an extensive array 

of academic and social activities. Additionally, Hofstra’s close 

proximity to Manhattan means that students have easy access to the 

wondrous cultural, social and career offerings of the city. 

In October 2008, the eyes of the world were 

on Hofstra at the University hosted the final 

presidential debate between Barack Obama and 

John McCain. The October 15 debate, moderated 

by Bob Schieffer, was a transformational moment 

for the University, highlighting the achievements 

of our students and faculty and their engagement in the political 

process. Leading up to the debate, students and the entire community 

were engaged by the year-long Educate ’08 program, almost 150 

lectures, conferences, and events focused on the issues, history and 

politics of the presidency. Hofstra has followed the Educate ’08 

program with Define ’09, a year-long series of programs designed 

to examine the new presidential administration, its policies and 

initiatives, the challenges we currently face and ways of addressing 

our country’s most pressing issues. 

2008 also saw Hofstra award its first Guru Nanak Interfaith Prize to 

His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama of Tibet. The new international 

award, which recognizes efforts at interfaith dialogue, received 

75 nominations for individuals and organizations from around the 

world. 

Hofstra’s School of Communication is one of the largest, most 

advanced non-commercial television facilities in the East. Students 

take classes and work in Dempster Hall, a sophisticated television 

What has remained consistent throughout the years, however, is the 

sense of community on campus, the eagerness of our students to 

learn and the commitment of the Hofstra faculty and administration 

to provide a challenging education that encourages the pursuit of 

lifelong learning. 

The Colleges and Schools of the University are: Hofstra College of 

Liberal Arts and Sciences, Frank G. Zarb School of Business, New

Foukas joined the Pride 

staff after serving as a tennis

New Jersey, since September of 

2007. 

Prior to her position at Little Silver, Foukas served as the 

assistant men’s and women’s tennis coach at Stony Brook 

University in Stony Brook, New York, from August 2005 until 

August 2007. While serving as an assistant coach, both programs 

had unprecedented success as the men won the America East 

title and advanced to the NCAA Championship for the first time 

in school history in 2006. The women, meanwhile, advanced to 

the conference semifinals twice and both programs were honored 

with Intercollegiate Tennis Association All-Academic accolades. 

While a member of the Seawolves staff, Foukas assisted 

in all aspects of the program including the recruitment of 

domestic and international student-athletes, scheduling 

and NCAA compliance issues. Foukas also took part in all 

practice and match preparations and was responsible for 

the coordination and execution of fundraising programs, 

alumni activities and community outreach initiatives. 

Foukas’ extensive tennis experience in the New York 

metropolitan area began when she served as an assistant

Staten Island, New York from August 2003 until June of 

2005. 

A 2002 graduate of Rutgers University in New Brunswick,

Jack Hayes is in his sixth year as 

director of athletics at Hofstra 

University in 2009-10. Hayes 

was appointed by Hofstra President 

Stuart Rabinowitz as the University’s 

director of athletics on October 4, 

2004. Hayes came to Hofstra after 

serving as an associate director 

of athletics at the University of 

Connecticut for three years. 

Hayes, the eighth director of athletics 

at Hofstra, leads a department that 

includes 17 Division I teams, 90 

coaches and administrative staff 

members and 400 student-athletes. 

Hayes’ proven expertise in enhancing 

academic and athletic success of 

student-athletes, strategic planning, 

fund-raising, marketing, university 

relations, facility enhancement, 

budgetary management, and NCAA 

compliance complements Hofstra 

University’s athletic department in its 

quest to further enhance its athletic 

program, and assist Hofstra’s studentathletes 

both on and off the field. 

The Hofstra Athletic program has 

flourished under Hayes’ leadership, winning 18 CAA Championships 

and making 24 postseason appearances since the 2004-05 

academic year. In 2008-09 the Pride wrestling team won the CAA 

Championship for an eighth consecutive year, while the men’s 

lacrosse program advanced to the NCAA Tournament as an at-large 

selection. In addition, Hofstra hosted the NCAA Men’s Lacrosse 

Quarterfinals in 2009, which saw nearly 12,000 people fill James M. 

Shuart Stadium for the event. 

Hofstra Director of Athletics Jack Hayes 

recent renovations include locker 

rooms, the wrestling room, athletic 

training rooms in Margiotta Hall 

and the Physical Fitness Center, the 

basketball media room in the Mack 

Sports Complex and a press box at the 

Hofstra Soccer Stadium. 

In 2006 Hayes reintroduced the 

Hofstra Athletics Hall of Fame 

after more than a 50-year absence, 

inducting four classes since that 

time. He also led an effort to retire 

the uniform numbers of prominent 

Hofstra student-athletes with 20 

jersey retirement ceremonies held 

during the 2008-09 academic year. 

Active on a national level, Hayes 

served on the NCAA Division I 

Lacrosse Committee from September 

2006 to September 2008. 

Hayes came to Hofstra with 

more than 14 years of athletic 

administration experience, including 

management positions at four 

Division I institutions – 

Connecticut, Fordham, St. John’s 

and Fairfield. 

Hayes received a master’s degree in education in 1992 with 

a concentration in sport management from the University of 

Connecticut. He holds a bachelor’s degree (1989) from Providence 

College, where he was a member of Providence’s lacrosse team. He 

was also awarded a certificate of completion in 2001 from the Sports 

Management Institute, Consortium of the Universities of Michigan 

and Texas. 

Hayes has placed a significant emphasis on fund-raising during his 

tenure. Pride Club membership reached all-time highs, both in terms 

of the number of contributors and funds raised as the organization 

topped the $1 million mark in each of the last two years. Resources 

generated through fund-raising efforts have been used to enhance 

programs and facilities available to student-athletes. Recent initiatives 

include the construction of Hofstra’s new field hockey stadium, as 

well as the replacement of the artificial turf in Shuart Stadium. Other 

A native of Providence, Rhode Island, Hayes graduated from the 

Providence Country Day School where he lettered in football, 

basketball and lacrosse. He was inducted, as a member of his high 

school basketball team, into the Providence Country Day Athletic 

Hall of Fame in October 2004. 

Hayes resides in East Northport, New York, with his wife Bridget, 

daughter Katie (7), and sons Matt (4) and Tommy (1).

Academic Support 

Hofstra University is committed to the pursuit of 

academic and athletic excellence. The University 

views participation in intercollegiate athletics as 

benefiting the student-athlete in an educationally enhancing 

experience beyond any other opportunity available. Hofstra also 

realizes the time commitment made by student-athletes and has 

committed the facilities and resources to support all students. 

The University Tutorial Program (UTP) provides free tutoring in 

every subject area to any Hofstra student. Students are able to obtain 

up to 1 1/2 hours of individual tutorial assistance per week for each 

subject. They are also able to utilize the various help labs on campus, 

which specialize in providing assistance in writing, business and 

QM, and biology and chemistry. In addition to this service, studentathletes 

are assigned an academic advisor who helps address the 

various needs of student‐athletes. The academic advisor emphasizes 

four areas in their efforts to ensure the academic success of Hofstra’s 

student-athletes. 

Area one is academic counseling. Services are provided in the areas 

of academic planning, career planning, personal counseling, and 

campus and community referrals. The counselor also meets with 

prospective student‐athletes, at the coach’s request, to share the many 

benefits of a Hofstra University education. 

Area two is academic advising. In an effort to ease the demand on the 

Office of Advisement, the academic advisor also advises first‐year 

and undecided student‐athletes. 

Area three 

is academic 

monitoring. 

The UTP counselor 

monitors the academic 

progress of student‐athletes to ensure compliance with Hofstra 

University, NCAA and conference regulations. The counselor’s 

regular communication with the faculty and coaches provide an 

opportunity for early intervention should academic difficulties arise. 

Area four is study halls. The University Tutorial Program provides 

all athletic study halls with tutors in various subjects and assesses 

the needs of individual student‐athletes to provide the most effective 

study environment. The assessment tool administered by the 

UTP is also used to provide various enrichment seminars for the 

student‐athletes such as time management, writing skills, campus 

resources, and surviving the college transition. 

In the fall of 1999 a computer lab opened on the second floor of 

Margiotta Hall. Funded in part by proceeds from the Joe Gardi 

Golf Open, the state-of-the-art computer lab and learning center 

features a projection system and 18 computer workstations, which 

are connected to the University network for easy research access to 

the Internet. The room was refurbished in 2005 with new furniture 

and computers. In addition to the Margiotta Hall computer lab, a new 

study area was constructed in 2006, located in the Physical Fitness 

Center, which features numerous computer workstations and office 

space for University academic advisement personnel. 


Sports Medicine/Athletic Training 

Through a comprehensive athletic training program, 

Hofstra University student-athletes are provided 

excellent health care during their attendance at the 

University. A coordinated effort between the University Health 

and Wellness Center, the Athletic Department and outside health 

care providers ensures every student-athlete the best medical 

attention possible. 

University student-athletes have direct access to a myriad of 

health care services. Managing the coverage of every practice 

and competition event is Hofstra University’s athletic training 

staff, which is led by seventh-year Head Athletic Trainer 

Evan Malings and features eight full-time athletic trainers and 

numerous student athletic trainers. The athletic trainers provide 

injury management, rehabilitation and treatment to the entire 

Athletic program. Utilizing three state-of-the-art athletic training 

rooms, these professionals work tirelessly to ensure the safe 

participation of Hofstra’s student-athletes and to return injured 

athletes to play quickly and safely. 

Supporting the athletic trainers is team physician Dr. Michael 

Yorio. Dr. Yorio, a physician with Pro Health Care, Inc. in Lake 

Success, New York, is in his first year on Hofstra’s medical 

team. Yorio is an internist with specialized training in sports 

medicine. He earned his undergraduate degree at Villanova 

University, and received his medical degree from the SUNY 

Health Science Center in Syracuse. Yorio previously served 

as a sports medicine fellow with the University of Maryland 

Orthopedics. Prior to that, he was a resident physician in internal 

medicine at Carolinas Medical Center in Charlotte, North 

Carolina. 

Yorio was named the Director of Player Medical Services for 

the 2008 U.S. Open Tennis Tournament in Flushing, New York, 

and is on the medical staff for the New York Islanders. He also 

worked as a team physician for the University of Maryland from 

2003 to 2005. 

Hofstra University sponsors a fully accredited, highly 

competitive undergraduate degree program for athletic training 

majors, in which Hofstra student athletic trainers participate in 

all aspects of the health care system.

Hofstra Heritage 

The Symbols of Hofstra University 

The Shield Logo 

In 2005 Hofstra 

introduced a 

new logo as part 

of a Universitywide 

reimaging. 

Both 

the University’s 

logo as well 

as the Pride logo were designed by 

advertising agency Powell New York, 

a full-service branding and marketing 

agency, noted as one of the ten firms to 

watch in 2005 in Advertising Age. 

The new University logo features an 

“H” within a shield design. Hofstra 

University has always been known for 

both a tradition of academic excellence and a willingness to 

evolve to meet the needs of students and the greater society. 

This shield represents the University’s commitment to our 

heritage and a tradition of academic excellence, while the 

dynamic representation of the H within the shield embodies 

the evolutionary, changing nature of the University. Hofstra 

University has both honored its traditions and heritage while 

embracing changing disciplines, using new technology and 

remaining relevant to scholarly pursuits and the demands of 

industry. 

The Seal 

The Hofstra seal was designed from the royal Dutch emblem by 

art instructor Constant Van de Wall. The 

seal is modeled on the coat of arms of 

the House of Orange-Nassau. The round 

seal includes the coat of arms, flanked by 

lions on either side. A lion also stands in 

the center of the coat of arms, holding a 

sword in its right claw and a bundle of 

seven arrows, which represent the seven 

provinces of Holland, in its left. The seal also carries the motto 

of the House of Orange-Nassau in Old French: “Je maintiendray” 

(I stand steadfast). In 1988 one of the two lions on the seal 

was officially replaced with a lioness. The 

Hofstra seal is still in use today, though not 

as a logo. The seal will be affixed to formal 

documents, and used for official purposes 

such as commencement, convocations, and 

official University functions. 

The Pride 

Hofstra’s athletic teams are officially known as the Pride, 

providing our teams with a strong, consistent image that 

resonates with the Hofstra community. The Hofstra Athletics logo 

consists of a graphic mark of a male and female lion in powerful, 

synchronized motion with the word mark of the Hofstra Pride or 

the specific sports team. 

The Hofstra Pride refers to a pack of lions, male and female, 

which work together towards a common goal and symbolize 

determination and strength. The Pride conveys both the teamwork 

and togetherness that is a trait of lions living in prides, who have 

a close bond and work together for the good of the entire group. 

The teamwork evident in prides is a trait of Hofstra’s studentathletes, 

who support each other in furtherance of a common goal, 

while working tirelessly to represent their teams and, in turn, the 

University. Lions also possess speed, tenacity, and agility, and are 

relentless in their pursuit of a goal, which are traits our studentathletes 

demonstrate both on and off the field. 

The first consistent use of the word “Pride” relating to athletics was 

in 1989 when the University’s athletic booster club was founded 

and called itself The Pride Club, which at the time simply referred 

to the pride that alumni and fans had for our teams. The Pride 

identity has progressed over the past decade in 

a more specific fashion than just the expression 

of a feeling. After one lion on the Hofstra 

seal was changed into a lioness to symbolize 

gender equity, the University mascots -- Kate 

and Willie Pride, a lioness and lion – were 

introduced. 


Hofstra’s Dutch Heritage 

Ties to Dutch heritage and the Netherlands began with 

William S. Hofstra, after whom the school is named and 

on whose property the University was started. William 

Hofstra died in 1932 and when his wife, Kate, died 16 

months later, her will provided that their house, 15-acre 

estate, and bulk of her inheritance were to be used for a 

“public, charitable, benevolent, or scientific purpose” as 

a memorial to her husband. 

The idea for a college came from Truesdel Peck 

Calkins, former Hempstead superintendent of schools, 

who was then with New York University. He suggested 

that NYU might offer extension courses on the Hofstra 

property. Hofstra opened in September 1935, as a 

two-year extension branch of NYU; its official name 

was “Nassau College – Hofstra Memorial of New 

York University at Hempstead, Long Island.” When 

the doors opened, the sole building on campus was 

Hofstra’s mansion, which he had affectionately named 

the Netherlands after his homeland, and all classes were 

held there. The mansion, which houses administrative 

offices, is now the center of Hofstra’s 240-acre campus, 

and has been renamed Hofstra Hall.

Long Island/New York City 

About Long Island… 

Long Island has a rich history as an active, vibrant community, 

a summer playground, and home to some of New York’s most 

prominent families. 

Five distinct regions make up Long Island: 

• North Shore, otherwise known as the Gold Coast, with 

dozens of historic sites dating back to colonial days and 

Gatsby-era mansions. 

• South Shore, the Island’s spectator sports and 

entertainment center, with world-famous Jones and Fire 

Island Beaches, and home to the New York Islanders. 

• Central Suffolk, with beautiful forests and natural inlets, 

the world’s largest factory outlet center and a huge water 

park. 

• North Fork, with an array of vineyards, waterfront ports 

and farm stands. 

• South Fork, widely known as “The Hamptons,” with its 

pristine beaches and exclusive villages. 

• You can catch a Hofstra shuttle bus to Jones Beach 

– a state park with six miles of gorgeous coastline, a 

boardwalk, swimming pools, golf and outdoor concerts. 

With everything from museums, historical sites and lighthouses, 

to sophisticated malls, designer outlets and shopping villages, 

to wineries and farm stands, to family fun parks, aquariums and 

zoos, there is plenty to do on Long Island. 

About New York City… 

Hofstra is located only 30 miles from New York City – the capital 

of culture and finance. You can visit Carnegie Hall, South Street 

Seaport, Hard Rock Café, Grand Central Station, Central Park, 

NBC Studios in Rockefeller Center, Little Italy or Chinatown. 

• Study the world’s finest sculptures and paintings at the 

Metropolitan Museum of Art. 

• Go and cheer along with the crowd at a Yankees, Mets, 

Rangers or Knicks game. 

• Wave at the TV cameras in the street-level studios of 

FOX, CNN, NBC, CBS or ABC 

• Walk through the financial capital of the world at the 

New York Stock Exchange on Wall Street. 

• Take the subway to Coney Island for a Nathan’s hot dog 

and a ride on the Cyclone, the last of the great wooden 

rollercoasters. 

• Get half-priced tickets to Broadway’s finest shows at the 

TKTS booth in a new, glittering Times Square. 


The Colonial Athletic Association 

The Colonial Athletic Association celebrates its 25th Anniversary 

in 2009-10 with memories of a proud and storied past and 

visions of an exciting future. 

Regarded as one of the nation’s top collegiate conferences, the CAA 

encompasses five of the nation’s nine largest metropolitan areas with 

a geographic footprint that stretches from Boston to Atlanta. The 

conference has produced 16 national team champions in five different 

sports, 33 individual national champions, 12 national players of the 

year, 12 national coaches of the year and 12 Honda Award winners. 

Just as impressive, however, are the honors accumulated away from 

competition, which include five Rhodes Scholars and 20 NCAA postgraduate 

scholars. In 2008-09, the CAA had more than 1,700 of the 

league’s 4,000 student-athletes receive the Commissioner’s Academic 

Award after posting at least a 3.2 grade point average while lettering in 

a varsity sport. The conference ranked in the top 10 in the nation in 12 

of its 23 sports in the latest APR report released by the NCAA. 

The landscape of the conference stretches along the majority of the 

East Coast, and includes six of the nation’s top 25 media markets – 

New York (1), Philadelphia (4), Boston (7), Atlanta (8), Washington, 

D.C. (9) and Baltimore (25). The number of television homes in the 

CAA market exceeds 20 million. 

The CAA currently sponsors 23 sports with the addition of a 12-team 

football league in 2007 and women’s rowing in 2009. Male athletes 

compete for championships in baseball, basketball, cross country, 

football, golf, lacrosse, soccer, swimming & diving, tennis, track & 

field and wrestling. Female athletes battle for conference titles in 

basketball, cross country, field hockey, golf, lacrosse, rowing, soccer, 

softball, swimming & diving, tennis, track & field and volleyball. In 

2008-09, 28 teams earned NCAA Tournament berths and 45 studentathletes 

received All-America honors. 

The conference has made its presence known nationally in men’s 

basketball with a league-record five teams advancing to postseason 

play in 2008-09. Conference champion VCU made its third NCAA 

Tournament appearance in the last six years, while George Mason 

reached the postseason for the seventh time in a decade in the NIT. 

Old Dominion, making its fifth straight postseason trip, captured the 

inaugural CIT championship, while James Madison made the CIT 

semifinals. Northeastern reached the quarterfinals of the CBI. In 2006, 

George Mason captured the nation’s imagination by becoming the 

first mid-major program since 1979 to reach the Final Four, knocking 

off powerhouses Michigan State, North Carolina, Wichita State and 

Connecticut along the way. The Patriots were ranked No. 8 in the final 

ESPN/USA Today Top 25 poll, which was the highest ever for a CAA 

team. 

The CAA has had at least three women’s basketball teams participate in 

post-season play for the past four seasons. Drexel captured its first CAA 

championship in 2009 and was joined in the NCAA Tournament by 

VCU, giving the league multiple teams in the Big Dance for the second 

time in three years. James Madison earned a post-season berth for the 

fourth year in a row in the WNIT. Perennial power Old Dominion, which 

has won three national championships (1979, 1980, 1985) and was 

national runner-up in 1997, claimed an NCAA-record 17 straight CAA 

titles before seeing its incredible streak come to an end last year. 

The conference also excels in many other sports. CAA squads have 

combined to win 10 field hockey national titles since the championship 

began in 1981. Delaware and Towson have each reached the Final Four 

of the NCAA Men’s Lacrosse Championship. Three women’s soccer 

teams have reached the second round of the NCAA Tournament for 

the past two seasons and at least one men’s soccer team has advanced 

to the final 16 of the NCAA Championship in five of the last seven 

years. In men’s cross country, William & Mary placed 16th nationally 

as a team in 2008 and Georgia State’s Mark Steeds earned All-America 

status after a 12th-place individual effort. On the mat, ODU’s Ryan 

Williams was one of three wrestling All-Americans after finishing 

as the national runner-up at 141 pounds. The CAA has sent multiple 

teams to the NCAA Baseball Championship in nine of the last 12 years 

and has had 12 or more players selected in the last seven Major League 

Baseball drafts. The conference also boasts numerous All-Americans in 

tennis, golf, track and field and swimming and diving. 

CAA member institutions are committed to excellence in the 

classroom. The Colonial Academic Alliance was created in 2002 by 

the league’s presidents with a goal of expanding their partnership 

to all aspects of university life outside of intercollegiate athletics. 

Among the programs already established are an undergraduate research 

conference, coordination of study abroad programs and granting 

visiting academic status to student-athletes traveling to an away contest 

so that they have access to libraries, academic resource centers and 

computer labs. 

In 2002, two faculty members from CAA institutions were awarded 

academia’s most coveted distinction – the Nobel Prize. John B. Fenn, 

a research professor in the Department of Chemistry at Virginia 

Commonwealth University, received the Nobel Prize for chemistry, 

and Vernon Smith, a professor of economics and law at George Mason 

University, shared the Nobel Prize in economic sciences. 

Commissioner Thomas E. Yeager has guided the CAA since its 

inception. The conference traces its roots back to 1983 when three 

of its current members- George Mason University, James Madison 

University, and the College of William and Mary - were aligned 

with East Carolina University, the United States Naval Academy 

and the University of Richmond as a basketball league (ECAC 

South). During the next two years, the league added 11 sports, 

acquired two new members (the University of North Carolina at 

Wilmington and American University) and decided to form a new 

association. The transformation from ECAC South to CAA took 

place on June 6, 1985. 

Charter members George Mason, James Madison, UNC Wilmington 

and William and Mary were joined by Old Dominion University 

in 1991 and by Virginia Commonwealth University in 1995. The 

conference added the University of Delaware, Drexel University, 

Hofstra University and Towson University in 2001. Georgia State 

University and Northeastern University became members of the 

conference on July 1, 2005. 

Celebrating its 25th Anniversary, the CAA takes great pride in 

producing student-athletes who stand out on the playing field and in the 

classroom.
