Why Your Gift Matters
David S. Mack ’67
“As a proud Hofstra alum, I am inspired by Hofstra’s vision and strategic initiatives. By investing in cutting-edge facilities, student scholarships and unrestricted support, I am honored to contribute to the University’s mission of providing a world-class education in Nassau County, New York.”
Gisselle Rodas ’23; JD ’25
"As a first-generation student from Guatemala, I have accomplished countless goals that surpassed what I could have ever imagined before starting at Hofstra. I look forward to giving back to my community, taking on the world and facing whatever challenges come my way, well-equipped and confident about my future."
Dr. J Bret Benington
“At Hofstra we are committed to teaching outside of the classroom, often using the campus as a laboratory. Our students ask questions and then develop the data needed to answer their questions using sophisticated tools. Our graduates find employment easily because they have skills that employers need to solve problems.”
