as I was driving through the hofstra campus late this afternoon I was lucky I had my son with his camera sitting next to me. as you can see, way down the road from where the presidential debates will be taking place, there are some peaceful demonstrations being held.

this is it everyone! the final debate. this means we are all a giant step closer to the final countdown. maybe I can go out on a limb here and say that regardless of what party you are leaning towards, we will all be glad when this is over!
I heard on the radio this morning that it cost 3.5 million dollars to have the debate at hofstra, all of which was given to the college by three hofstra alumni, peter s. kalikow, john d. miller and david s. mack.
I think it is great for the students and it's great for the college.
