of college should bean extraordinary experience, a time when you explore new ideas, meetnew friends and begin to find the path that’s right for you. Because notwo students are alike, and because we want to ensure that every newHofstra student has a positive experience, we have developed uniquefirst-year programs designed to ease students into the life of theUniversity. The first year at Hofstra University is full of possibilities.We are confident that one of these options will be right for you.

First-Year Seminars and Clusters,* part of the First-YearConnections program, are integrated academic and extracurricular offeringsthat draw together students with similar interests. The seminars featuresmall, discussion-based classes; clusters are sets of interrelated courses that are designed to complement each other. The idea is that students whotake seminars or clusters make friends more quickly, form study groups and generally have an easier time adjusting to college. Credits earned inConnections courses count toward your degree – no matter what Hofstraschool you eventually enroll in or what major you declare.

Block Courses* offered by New College for Interdisciplinary Studiesgive students the option to immerse themselves in a subject by taking onecourse at a time, for a total of four courses, in a row, per semester. Eachcourse is small by design, lasts 3-1/2 weeks, and is worth four credits. Blockcourses are academically rigorous, include weekly field trips, and fulfilldegree requirements for all schools within the University.

Honors College allows high-achieving students the opportunity todiscover their full academic potential. In the Honors College first-year curriculum, called Culture & Expression, students explore the connectionsbetween disciplines and work closely with some of the University’s most distinguished faculty.

School for University Studies focuses on serving students who have demonstrated their potential in non-traditional ways through personalized instruction and individual advisement - the full resources ofHofstra University.

Living/Learning Communities are unique residential options that are open to all first-year students. Students who choose this residential experience live with other first-year students who share theirpassion for American politics, political and social issues, health sciences, leadership, math/science/engineering, healthy living, or the arts.

The Division of Student Affairs offers a wide range of services designed to familiarize first-year students with the University and help them make the most of their college experience.

Hofstra’s Electronic EdgeHofstra is among the most technologically advanced campuses in the country, where students use state-of-the-art facilities and benefit fromnumerous free computing services.

*All first-year students may take seminars, clusters, or block courses in the fall orspring semester, or both. Students in Honors College and School for UniversityStudies may participate in first-year programs, but you should speak with your academicadvisor to manage your schedule appropriately. 3

First-Year Seminars andClusters

a dynamic academic andextracurricularprogram

“I met and made strong connections with myentire class, not just a few people. The small classes and individual attention enabled me to better concentrate on my work.”

— Krista Darrell, Class of 2009

At Hofstra, we want our first-year students to feel at home,both academically and socially. The seminars and clustersoffered by the First-Year Connections program address bothparts of this goal.

We offer more than 40 first-year seminars for fall 2009.These are small classes, reserved for first-year students, in which students work closely with a professor on a topic in that professor’s particular area of research andexpertise. We have designed our seminar topics to fit every interest, from graphic design to global warming, baseball in America to Asian politics.

In addition to seminar courses like these, we offer clusters– again, reserved for first-year students – composed ofintroductory-level courses and designed to be taken together.For example, a student may study slavery in America in ahistory course, while reading Huckleberry Finn in the linkedEnglish class. In another cluster, students may take a business course in information technology, while studyingethics in a linked philosophy course. We have designed theseclusters of courses with a wide variety of majors in mind.

Whether you enroll in a cluster or seminar – or, in somecases, both – you will satisfy graduation requirements and,at the same time, take the introductory courses in your eventual area of study. The following pages describe someof the seminars and clusters that are available for the fall 2009 semester. Take a look at some of the courses you can experience in your first year at Hofstra.

Hofstra UniversityHonors College

A community of highly motivated students and faculty.A conversation about ideas and how they figure in the world.A commitment to reaching new levels of achievement.A challenge to extend your horizons ... and find your edge!

Honors College is designed for highly motivated, high-achieving students who want to make the most of their college years.

The best of two worlds – a nurturing community within a major research universityYou will be part of a close-knit community of students and faculty not unlike what you’d find at a small liberal arts college. At the same time, however, you will have an extraordinary range of opportunities at a research university with more than 145 majors offered through Hofstra College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, the School ofCommunication, the Frank G. Zarb School of Business, and the School of Education, Health and Human Services.

“Culture & Expression has been great bothbecause of what we read, and the way itbrings all of us together. Honors housing reinforces that sense of community.”

– Natalie Hoeting Class of 2012

An extraordinary first-year experienceOur first-year curriculum, our extracurricular activities and our administrative support are all designed to helpyou make a smooth transition from high school to college life. All first-year Honors College students participatein our four-course, two-semester cluster called Culture & Expression. Each Honors College entering class comestogether through shared readings and conversations in Culture & Expression. We also introduce you to oneanother and campus life via on-campus events, trips to New York City for theater, museums and other cultural opportunities, and outdoor activities in the surrounding area. Many Honors College students participate in ongoing social service opportunities on campus and in the broader community.

Culture & ExpressionCulture & Expression consists of team-taught courses designed by a hand-picked team of Hofstra’s distinguishedfull-time faculty. Each semester, this group selects a unique list of readings and other objects of study in thehumanities and social sciences. Via lectures and small group discussions, students experience the breadth of university learning and discover how disciplines approach cultural artifacts differently and thus produce different kinds of knowledge. This experience equips students to negotiate the challenges of whatever field of study they choose.

Where does it fit?Culture & Expression is Honors College’s first-year cluster. It fits into every Hofstra degree program.Specifically, Culture & Expression partially satisfies the University-wide distribution requirements in thehumanities and social sciences.

Honors Housing Option Many Honors College students choose to live in honors housing (Liberty/Republic Halls), where they enjoy aneven greater sense of community and an exceptional level of support from faculty mentors, our professionalstaff, specially selected student leaders, and one another.

Hofstra’s School for University Studies – which has been helping students succeed for more than three decades – offers students the opportunity to start their college experience with a year of innovative curriculum and academic support within the larger Hofstra community.

“We spent five hours at ABC Studios and met with the people who make the nightly news and special broadcasts possible. Seeing all thatgoes into making a broadcast happen is truly an eye opener.”

– Bill McIntyreAssistant Director of Admissions and AdministrationSchool for University Studies

Students in the School for University Studies begin their Hofstra education in the intimate setting of the FreshmanProgram, while having all the resources of the University at their disposal.

Through these energetic living/learning communities, Hofstra students are exposed to environments that are intellectually stimulating, supportive, and conducive to building lasting friendships and a memorable first year.

Students who choose a living/learning community reside together in the Netherlands Complex in a housewith 55 other first-year students. These students enjoy class-based activities as well as events within theirliving/learning community.
