Admissions Unveiled

Adelphi's own Broadway....

March 16, 2009 - by Kayla Zaniboni

This past week Adelphi's performing arts department of theater put on "Moonchildren" by Michael Weller. The show featured all the current students of Adelphi. All actors where fabulous and made me so proud to be a student at Adelphi. The show took place in the 1960's during the Vietnam War. It was so exciting to see because for the most part the actors where playing characters that were in the same place as they are now. The show was so relevant to today with the issues they were expressing. It showed the relationship between friends and how it has its ups and downs. It always expressed how scary it can be when college is over and you're forced in the "real world" and how that can be very over whelming. I was so happy to see how supportive the Adelphi community was. There were a number of professors that had come to see it as well as a great amount of students. Maybe one day we will be seeing one of our own Adelphi actors on the "Big Screen" or even on Broadway.

My name is Fara Fiore and I am a junior at Adelphi University. I am a political science and criminal justice major, and hope to some day be a lawyer. Throughout my three years at Adelphi, I have been part of the Pre-law Society, Amnesty International, Hall Council, Phi Sigma Sigma, and Student Government. I also love when intramural basketball starts! I started as a political science major and took a criminal justice class as a general education requirement, and loved it! I immediately asked for assistance in declaring a double major, and my professors and advisors were extremely helpful in making sure everything worked out. My favorite thing to say on tours is "Everything is what you make of it," and college is no different. As a resident or commuter student, it is extremely easy to get involved, making you never want to leave Adelphi.

My name is Jessica Iuteri, I am from a small town in Connecticut. I am a sophomore Nursing major and an Excel Mentor at Adelphi. It has been an amazing adventure so far for me, leaving my family was one of the hardest things to do but I knew that by moving away it would help me grow as a person and I have even developed my very own home away from home now. I have even gained sisters, I am apart of Phi Sigma Sigma on campus and it has been a life changing experience I would never regret. I was never one to jump into anything quickly but as I moved into the college life, away from everything and everyone I knew and loved, I quickly learned that college is going to be what I make of it, its not what Adelphi can do for me, it is what I take from Adelphi and make from it. “For once jump in with you eyes closed and be faithful things will turn out just fine,” something I have started to live by. Where I end up one day will hopefully be somewhere warm and working in a hospital, helping everyone that I can and being positive about tomorrow. That’s all you can do, Live for today.

My name is Kayla Zaniboni and I am a junior at Adelphi University. I am a theatre major with a concentration in acting. Throughout my three years here at Adelphi, I have been apart of SAB (Student Activities Board) and Hall Council. I also like to play intramural volleyball. Within the theatre department, I have been involved in many shows including, "The Rimers of Eldritch", "Rent", and "Stage Door." I have enjoyed everyday at Adelphi. Even though it sounds cliché, college is what you make of it; if you put your hand out, there will be another one reaching out for you. The professors at Adelphi are more than just teachers--they end up being role models and sometimes friends. I couldn't imagine being any place else but here.
