From Viscardi Students Visit Hofstra

 

As part of the transition program at Henry Viscardi School, ninth grade students and several parents visited Hofstra University to see what college is all about. Andrea Nadler, the Associate Dean of Admissions spoke about the variety of programs and majors that Hofstra has to offer.  Julie Yindra, the Director of Services for Students with Disabilities and members of her department emphasized the importance of good grades, self-advocacy and goal setting. She told the students about Dr. Viscardi’s friendship with one of the dean’s at Hofstra. In 1963, as the school was transitioning from a commuter school to a residential campus. Dr. Viscardi emphasized the importance of building an entirely accessible campus and thus Hofstra became the first wheelchair accessible campus on Long Island.

 

After a tour of the campus, and running into a 2011 Viscardi graduate on his way to class at Hofstra, the students enjoyed socializing and navigating the food court at the Student Center.
