HEMPSTEAD, NY -- During National Student Employment Week, Hofstra University is celebrating the impact and experiences of student workers across campus and in the surrounding community. Through the student employment program - whether through Federal Work-Study or other opportunities - students are receiving more than just a paycheck. They're building transferable skills, gaining practical experience, forming meaningful professional relationships, and in many cases, engaging with the wider community.

The following list are students that are student workers at Hofstra:

Nicholas Walton of Haddon Twp

Olivia Malinowski of Mount Ephraim

Diamond Marsh of Burlington

Tyler Kolecki of Collingswood

Molly Shearer of Cinnaminson

Kylie Gilbert of Burlington

Junyu Chang of Atlantic City

Jurius Clark of Blackwood

Kelly Levengood of West Deptford

Tara McNally of Marmora

Sachin Keenan of Moorestown

Ayesha Dickerson of Moorestown

Olivia Douse of Haddonfield

Supporting student employment is one of many ways Hofstra is advancing its commitment to student success, a key priority of the Hofstra 100 strategic plan. On-campus jobs help students integrate into the University community, while Federal Work-Study positions connect them with meaningful opportunities both on and off campus.

The Office of Student Employment plays a central role in supporting Hofstra's student workforce, which includes more than 1,100 students each year. Amanda Nastasi, manager of the Office of Student Employment, sees firsthand the impact these opportunities have on students' personal and professional growth. "One of the most gratifying parts of my role is meeting a student at the start of their job search and later welcoming them into the office for onboarding once they've secured a position," she said. "It's a privilege to play a small part in students' journeys, and to watch them grow through the student employment program."

Hofstra University's primary mission is to provide a quality education to its students in an environment that encourages, nurtures, and supports learning. At Hofstra, new ideas take shape through collaboration, engagement, and interaction. Hofstra students create their success with small classes and dedicated faculty, alongside a beautiful campus, plus all the opportunities of New York City within easy reach.
