Honors Conference Gets an “A”

On Friday, November 5th, honors students gathered on campus to attend the annual honors conference co-sponsored by Apple Inc. and the C.W. Post Provost’s Office. This year’s theme being communications, the conference offered a wide range of lectures and workshops.

Homeless in Hicksville

Last Wednesday, the Newman Club held a demonstration on campus to raise the awareness of homelessness on Long Island.  Over 30 of the club members dressed in hats and gloves and posted up by Humanities Hall and the Great Lawn.  The demonstrators asked the people of the C.W. Post community to drop small donations into their cups.

“I don’t know if our hope is to end homelessness on Long Island. That’d be wonderful if we could,” said Father Ted Brown who was representing the Newman Club.  “But what we’re trying to do is bring attention to the fact that there is homelessness here on Long Island and that it takes all of Long Island to become aware of that to begin to solve this problem.”

College of Management Ranked Among the Best Business Schools in the Country


For the fourth consecutive year, the Princeton Review has named C.W. Post’s College of Management among the top 300 business schools in the country. This was based upon a student survey.

Unlike other ranking systems like US News and World Report, the Princeton Review collects data directly from students in the form of surveys. College students were asked to comment on a number of categories including, academics, career and placement, student life and environment, and admissions. In this particular survey, students specifically commented on the Master of Business Administration (MBA) program in the College of Management at Post.
