Admissions Unveiled

Soberfest

October 26, 2009 - by Jessica

It was alcohol awareness week here at Adelphi, and everyone got involved. All of Greek life hosted Soberfest in the UC Ballroom on the second floor. It was amazing, each sorority and fraternity put on an individual program that is usually alcohol related, and took away the alcohol to show that it is still fun and interesting without the need to get drunk. There was jell-o shots, jell-o wrestling, root beer pong, and different games and obstacle courses. All of Adelphi was invited to come out and enjoy the fun with the Greeks on campus, it was to bring the Adelphi community together, and it did, the event was a blast. My favorite was watching the jell-o wrestling because it made such a mess and they were given jumpsuits to keep their clothing clean, but that did not work in every case. Even viewers and onlookers had been hit with a splash of jell-o here and there. I hope everyone had a good time because I know how hard everyone worked to make this fun and possible. As i say, you have to get yourself out to as many events as possible; it will make your college experience unforgettable.

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.
