Welcome
Welcome to Nassau News, a product of the combined efforts of students, professors, administrators and a variety of volunteers in the Hofstra University School of Communication. This site was launched by Ron Chalmers, Senior Instructional Technologist; Barry Germond, Instructional Technologist; and Maurice (Mo) Krochmal, multimedia editor, copy wrangler and coach.
We intend this to be an interactive community effort focusing on matters of local importance that may not have been discovered by larger media entities. To that end, we will be calling upon our neighbors in Nassau -- focusing mainly (at least initially) on Uniondale, Hempstead and Mineola -- for ideas and input. We also want you to call upon us. Our telephone number is 516-463-4883; our fax number is 516-463-4866; our e-mail address is: maurice.krochmal at hofstra.edu
Please let us hear from you. Let us know about neighborhood issues, injustices, upcoming meetings, celebrations, religious occasions, restaurants off the beaten path, milestones, sports leagues, interesting places to hang out for fun or intellectual stimulation or healing, candidates for person of the week or pet of the week. And anything else that you want to see in Nassau News!
