Making the Most of Life – and Death “Death Café”: Hempstead seniors and Hofstra public health students spent an evening discussing end-of-life issues. Residents at the General MacArthur Senior Village in Hempstead recently spent an evening with Hofstra public health students, sharing coffee, cake, and candid conversation about mortality and end-of-life issues. Senior citizens rotated through several stations manned by the students, where they learned how to set up a health care proxy and create ethical wills in which they can share their values and life lessons with family and friends. They also played card games that explored ideas such as how they’d like to be remembered, and considered what they still wanted to accomplish in their lifetime. “Our goal is to remove the stigma of talking about death while having good food and good conversation,” said student Tanzim Bhuiya, who will begin medical school next year. “This has shown me that health is not just about curing someone; it’s about talking to people and hearing what they have to say, their hopes and fears.” At Bhuiya’s station, Regis Thompson, 73, wrote her bucket list goal – to take a sculpting class – on a yellow Post-It note. She stuck it to a board bearing the aspirations of others in the room,
everything from seeing the Northern Lights and traveling to Africa to sky diving and being a contestant on the TV cooking show Chopped. Seniors need to be open to conversations about death and dying, Thompson said, adding that she has had many talks with her family about how she would like them to handle her passing. “I want them to be prepared; I don’t want to leave a hardship for them. Sure they will mourn and be sad, but they will have good memories of what I did and how I lived my life.” The evening was modeled after a popular international movement called Death Café, which has held more than 5,000 similar events in 52 countries. Public health professor Martine Hackett, PhD, was interested in organizing the event with the seniors at General MacArthur, part of the Village of Hempstead Housing Authority, when she learned that about twice as many blacks and Hispanics in Nassau County die prematurely (before age 75), compared with whites. “I wanted my students to know that they can connect with people and help them have better health outcomes,” she said.

CAMPUS AND COMMUNITY NEWS
Raking Record More than 800 Hofstra students volunteered in the fall 2017 Shake-A-Rake community cleanup, raking leaves at 50 homes of mostly elderly or disabled residents in Hempstead and Uniondale. Students from 62 campus organizations including athletics, fraternities, sororities, commuting students, and student government spent several hours on Saturday, November 18, working in the neighborhoods surrounding Hofstra. They also cleared the 1.5-acre yard of the John J. Byrne Community Center in Uniondale, as well as the grounds of the Cameron Estates Garden in Hempstead. Reginal Lucas, president of the Hempstead Coordinating Council of Civics Associations, was on hand Saturday morning with other civic leaders to speak to students before they went out on their assignments. “It was wonderful to see so many students who were willing to do something good for the community,” he said. “It’s a very valuable service they are providing.” “Through Shake-A-Rake, we are able to show our local community members that we appreciate them by taking the time to help rake leaves and getting to know each homeowner,” said Student Government Association President Rita Cinquemani, a senior majoring in political science and government. “In the process, we are able to build stronger relationships and ties to the community.” The annual program has grown every year since it first began in 2009 with 50 students volunteering at six houses. This year’s turnout of 815 bested a total of 660 students in 2016, and 410 students in 2015.

“Our students really embrace this project and work together to accomplish it,” said Anita Ellis, director of Commuting Student Services and Community Outreach and coordinator of Shake-A-Rake. “I’m thrilled that our local civic leaders could come and see the real heart of our student body.”
Training Tomorrow’s Doctors Twenty young students from the Medical Science Youth Program at the Alverta B. Gray Schultz Middle School in Hempstead were among more than 200 participants in the second annual A Taste of Diversity Night at the Donald and Barbara Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra/Northwell on November 15. The initiative allows medical students to partner with the middle school to enhance academic success and foster an interest in a career in medicine. The event featured readings, music and dance performances, a panel discussion, and homemade foods from many cultures. Multicultural, all-inclusive gatherings are vital for members of the medical community as the pool of patients and professionals continues to grow, change, and diversify in our society. Jada Harris (left), Benjamin N. Cardozo High School, and Bairon Reyes Luna (right), Hempstead High School, seniors and participants in the Zucker School of Medicine’s Medical Scholars Pipeline Program, each received a $5,000 college scholarship from Northwell Health.

Early STEM Start for Girls About 100 girls from five Long Island school districts spent four weeks on the Hofstra campus, working on design projects and problemsolving exercises as part of a free summer workshop aimed at getting them excited about engineering careers. The new program was held in the School of Education’s STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) Studio, and brought together students ages 8 to 10 from Uniondale, Roosevelt, North Shore, Herricks, and Great Neck. Hands-on activities included engineering a light show that emulated the Northern Lights to learn about circuits, building cars from recyclables as a lesson in green engineering, and constructing pipe insulation models to learn about the physics of roller coasters. “We want to give girls early exposure to intensive STEM experiences so that they come to see science as something they can do,” said Amy Catalano, director of the STEM Studio.
Eight-year-old Kayori Robbins, above, of Uniondale said she had a great time at the event. “We got to experience things we have never experienced before such as lighting up an LED light with play dough and alligator wires, and how to make cars from things found around the house,” she said. “We made a race car track and had a race with the cars. Ms. Amy showed us her robot made with the top of a toothbrush, a battery, and tape.”
“My favorite thing about STEM was the Northern Lights project. I learned that there are lots of things you can engineer to help solve a problem,” said Nathalia Bettencourt, a third grader from Uniondale. “I really enjoyed the program and can’t wait to come back again next year.” The School of Education received a $25,000 grant from National Grid to reopen the STEM Studio last fall. For additional information about the program, contact Amy Catalano at Amy.Catalano@hofstra.edu.
The Spirit of Giving Members of Hofstra’s Division of Students Affairs “adopted” local children from the Fulton Tenants Association in Hempstead and provided them with gifts in time for the holidays. The Commuter Student Association delivered the gifts, about 50 in all, on December 21. The Fulton Tenants Association was very grateful for Hofstra’s contribution, which gave many children their only gift for the season, said its president, Jeanwood Sessions. Hofstra University collected more than 600 items for donation as part of its eighth annual holiday drive to benefit the Mary Brennan Interfaith Nutrition Network (INN), a nonprofit agency in Hempstead that provides food, shelter, and social programs to disadvantaged individuals and families across Long Island. Items ranging from diapers and toiletries to blankets and children’s outfits were loaded up by the drive captains and sent over to the INN in December. The Hofstra Women’s Basketball program raised $1,000 to provide meals for more than 400 people at the INN on January 16. The team also volunteered their time to help prepare and serve the meals that day. Head Coach Krista Kilburn-Steveskey and her team presented the check to the INN’s Jean Kelly and Rob Kammerer.
Student groups participated in a food share at the Hempstead train station, helping to unload and distribute groceries, clothing, and toys, and serve meals to those in need. Additionally, members of the Discovery Program helped beautify the John J. Byrne Community Center of Uniondale by giving it a fresh coat of paint, creating a mural inside, and tending the front lawn. 3
CAMPUS AND COMMUNITY NEWS
Hearing a Community’s Needs A recent research project by Hofstra’s Department of Speech-Language-Hearing Sciences helped raise awareness of common speech/language and hearing disorders among Haitian-Americans in Nassau County. A team of professors, administrators, and students, including the director from a local Haitian community group, spent eight weeks researching, writing, and translating health information into the Creole language. They created several brochures that were distributed during a community event at the Uniondale Public Library in late summer. With the aid of a translator, Hofstra students also delivered a presentation on prevention, assessment, and management of speech-language-hearing disorders, such as hearing loss in newborns, which can be easily missed. “After Florida, New York state has the highest population of Haitian Americans, with many living in Nassau County,” said Aniruddha Deshpande, PhD, assistant professor of audiology, who led the research. “Many in the Haitian community often rely on self-treatments rather than professional medical help to treat illness, so one of the overarching goals of the study was to provide this underrepresented community with more access to health information.”
Hofstra audiology students and faculty organized a community event at Uniondale Public Library. “This project helped raise awareness about how important your sense of hearing truly is,” said Doctor of Audiology student Nicole Trupo. “We were so welcomed by the Haitian organization and we learned a lot about their culture too, which is important for us as audiologists to consider when practicing in the field.” The team included Maria Sonia Saint Rose-Bienvil, a graduate student in the Master of Public Health program and executive director of Solidarite Haitiano-Americaine De Long Island, Inc. (SHALI), a local nonprofit representing Haitians in the region.
Helping Teens Become Leaders Regina Calcaterra, author of the best-seller Etched in Sand: A True Story of Five Siblings Who Survived an Unspeakable Childhood on Long Island, and co-author of Girl Unbroken, discussed compelling life stories of courage, resiliency, and selfdetermination with students from Uniondale High School as part of Frank G. Zarb School of Business’ Ladder to Leadership program. Calcaterra’s books often focus on the message that no child is a lost cause and Students at Uniondale High that we can all make a positive impact on the life of a child in need. School enjoyed hearing from author Regina Calcaterra. Ladder to Leadership is just one of Hofstra’s Regional Scholars programs, in which talented middle and high school students can come to campus and explore new academic interests with Hofstra professors and college students as mentors to gain an understanding of college-level work expectations and professional life. Other programs include the Hofstra Long Island Regional Spelling Bee, Hofstra High School Summer Journalism Institute, Model United Nations, Middle School Honors Band Festival, High School Student Press Day, Ethics Bowl, History Day, Youth Film Day, and the Summer Science Research Program.

FORM, FUNCTION, FOSSILS, AND ... PHYSICIANS? THE SURPRISING EVOLUTIONARY CONNECTIONS BETWEEN DINOSAURS AND HUMAN ANATOMY
DR. ELLEN STOFAN: WHAT SPACE EXPLORATION CAN MEAN FOR INNOVATION ON EARTH SINCE 1969
Anatomy, the study of body structure, is as important for paleontologists as it is for medical doctors. Virtually every bone in your body has a counterpart in the skeletons of dinosaurs, and the similarities reveal our common evolutionary ancestry. Join us for an exploration of how anatomy changes – over millions of years, and since just before you were born – with Dr. Robert Hill, an associate professor of science education at the Donald and Barbara Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra/Northwell. Dr. Hill has discovered fossils on four continents, and has published several research papers on paleontology, human anatomy, and medical education.
NASA plans to send humans to Mars in the 2030s – a monumental challenge. This will help us discover if life ever evolved on the red planet, and will also boost our economy and technological capacities (like Apollo did in the 1960s). In fact, getting to Mars may provide helpful solutions to problems here in the developing world – issues around agriculture, irrigation, water purity, and rescue technology. Dr. Ellen Stofan is the former chief scientist of NASA (2013-2016), where she served as principal advisor to the NASA administrator on the agency’s science-related strategic planning and programs.

Give Blood, Save a Life Community members are invited to join Hofstra students, faculty, and staff at the University’s spring blood drive on Wednesday, February 28, from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. in the Mack Student Center Multipurpose Room, North Campus. All donations benefit the New York Blood Center. “The winter months are notoriously a tough time to get people out to donate because of the weather and school holidays, so it’s all the more important to encourage each other to donate,” said Doreen Fiscina of Long Island Blood Services, the regional division of the New York Blood Center, the sole supplier of blood to Northwell Health and the Catholic Health System. The need for blood is especially critical now, she added. Almost 2,000 men, women, and children in the regional area need blood transfusions every day. Since blood can only be preserved for 42 days, area hospitals continually face high demands to replenish supplies. One pint of blood is separated into components that can save several lives. Those in need include cancer patients; accident, burn, or trauma victims; newborn babies and women delivering babies; transplant recipients; surgery patients; and chronically transfused patients suffering from sickle cell disease or thalassemia, said Fiscina. Walk-ins are welcome, or donor appointments can be made by emailing Elizabeth Lorentzen at Elizabeth.Lorentzen@hofstra.edu. A valid photo ID is required. 6

COMMUNITY SERVICES AND PROGRAMS
Hofstra Maurice A. Deane School of Law Clinics The Maurice A. Deane School of Law Clinical Studies Program has 11 clinics: Asylum Clinic; Community & Economic Development Clinic; Criminal Justice Clinic; Deportation Defense Clinic; Entrepreneurship and Intellectual Property Clinic; Federal Tax Clinic; Immigration Clinic; Juvenile Justice Clinic; Law Reform Advocacy Clinic; Robert W. Entenmann Veterans Law Clinic; and Youth Advocacy Clinic. These clinics offer free legal assistance. Potential clients must meet certain financial eligibility requirements. For more information on the requirements and the specific types of cases handled by the clinics, call 516-463-5934.
Law Clinic Expands Veterans Services The Robert W. Entenmann Veterans Law Clinic, originally launched in January 2017 by Hofstra Law’s Gitenstein Institute for Health Law and Policy, has expanded its free legal services for Long Island’s nearly 114,000 veterans. It will become a clearinghouse for veterans’ services, providing legal assistance and connecting them to vital medical, social service, and mental health resources. The Veterans Law Clinic currently assists veterans with legal services related to physical and psychological challenges, including traumatic brain injury, post-traumatic stress disorder, and other injuries incurred during military service. The clinic helps veterans obtain health care benefits, working on cases to obtain Veterans Administration benefits, appeal denials of disability compensation claims, and request increased compensation. As part of its expanded services, Hofstra Law students will partner with fourth-year medical students in the Donald and Barbara Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra/Northwell to
conduct medical research related to client cases and assist with “nexus letters,” documents that effectively connect clients’ medical conditions to their military service. The clinic will also use web-based software to create a virtual clinic to increase its capacity to provide services to those veterans whose mobility may be limited. In addition, the clinic will develop a number of legal resources for veterans, such as Know Your Legal Rights guides, will form relationships with other community stakeholders to collaborate and integrate services, and will organize outreach events to expand the veterans’ support network. The clinic is supported by a $500,000 gift from the Entenmann family, and is named in memory of Robert W. Entenmann, who proudly served in the Marines and was an advocate for all veterans. “We are grateful for the generous support of the Entenmann family and their recognition of the Law School’s critical role in providing free legal services for our local community,” said Judge A. Gail Prudenti, dean of the Maurice A. Deane School of Law. “To be able to offer our students real-world training and assist veterans with their legal needs is a win-win.”

KICKOFF FILM SCREENING AND DISCUSSION: I AM NOT YOUR NEGRO I Am Not Your Negro is a 2016 documentary based on James Baldwin’s unfinished manuscript Remember This House. Narrated by actor Samuel L. Jackson, the film is a journey into black history from the Civil Rights Movement to the present through Baldwin’s beginning with reminiscences of civil rights leaders Medgar Evers, Malcolm X, and Martin Luther King Jr. The result is a radical, up-to-the-minute examination of race in America.

JUST AN ORDINARY LAWYER A PLAY, WITH SONGS Written and performed by Tayo Aluko With live piano accompaniment. Just an Ordinary Lawyer tells the story of Nigerian Tunji Sowande as he quietly broke through multiple barriers to become Britain’s first black judge in 1978. Tunji Sowande arrived in London from Nigeria in 1945 to study law and pursue his interest in music. He rose to become a well-respected barrister, the first black head of chambers, and finally the first (part-time) black judge. An active solo concert performer, he was also a great lover of cricket and became a member of the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC), the home of cricket. 75992:1/18
