Hofstra Recognizes Impact Of Student Employees

HEMPSTEAD, N.Y. — During National Student Employment Week, which was celebrated this year from April 14 to 18, Hofstra University recognized the impact and experiences of student workers across campus and in the surrounding community. Among the many student workers at Hofstra are Dana Ascolesi of Scotch Plains and Sophie Havens of Westfield.

Through the student employment program — whether through Federal Work-Study or other opportunities — students are receiving more than just a paycheck. They are building transferable skills, gaining practical experience, forming meaningful professional relationships, and in many cases, engaging with the wider community.

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 exceeds 1,100 students each year. “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,” said Amanda Nastasi, manager of the Office of Student Employment. “It’s a privilege to play a small part in students’ journeys, and to watch them grow through the student employment program.”

Hofstra University provides more than 100 undergraduate and graduate degree-granting programs through its 13 schools and colleges. For more information, visit www.hofstra.edu.
