There is no better indicator to how a semester may go than the quality of your floor’s bulletin board. I chose to honor the best boards by walking through each Hofstra University residence hall to find the best ones and compile them. Here are my top five.
In 1915, Dr. Carter G. Woodson and Jesse E. Moorland founded the Association for the Study of African American Life and History, which gave way to the modern recognition of Black History Month. Their mission was to promote the study of Black history and celebrate the accomplishments of Black people in their respective fields.
Daniel Giordano’s “Hermetic Perversions: A Charming Night With Vicki Vermicelli” is currently on display in Hofstra’s Rosenberg Gallery. Giordano is an internationally-known sculptor who resides and works in Newburgh, New York. He earned his MFA from the University of Delaware and is known for his interesting, different and almost perverse work.
Kiarra Williams recently showcased her collection of sculptures titled “But what does it mean” in the FORM gallery. The soon-to-be graduate aspires to be an art therapist, seeking to help people work out their problems through art.
"The liberal arts help you to argue and think critically. They teach you how to write and ask questions. You may get your job through your major, but I can guarantee you’ll get your promotion through the liberal arts. The arts have always been more than just about artwork. Leonardo da Vinci understood this by blending his love of math and science with art; in fact, he considered them the same thing."
