Admissions Unveiled

Powder Puff Football!!

March 30, 2009 - by Fara Fiore

It's the first week back since Spring Break and the work is definitely piling up for me. All the classes I didn't have midterms in before Spring Break, I now have midterms in. Preparing for these while preparing for Initiation in my sorority was difficult this week. Fortunately, Student Government Association planned an event called Powder Puff Football for the end of the week. This was a huge stress reliever for me! If you don't already know, powder puff football is when the girls play football and the guys either coach or cheer on the sidelines. We had many different people from different organizations come to help out. A lot of the guys form the fraternities came to cheer us on as well as help us out. My position was blocking our quarterback, since I can't throw or catch! Student Government has been puttin on events all month for Women's History Month. Many speakers have come as well as fun activities planned, such as the powder puff game. Although my team lost, it was still fun to have something to do on campus that wasn't work or stress related. A great accomplishment that I am proud to be able to talk about is the Initiation of our new members into Phi Sigma Sigma this week. Being a new sorority, it was the first time we were able to go through this ceremony and put it on ourselves! I am extremely proud of our girls and can not wait to see what they bring in the future!

Admissions Unveiled is written by
Fara Fiore.

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.

Jessica Iuteri.

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.
