Happy St. Patty’s day collegiates! One of the best college holidays is upon us, here are some ways to celebrate! 

St. Baldrick’s Day: 11:15 a.m.-12:45 p.m. in the Student Center. Hofstra faculty and students shave their heads to raise money for childhood cancer research. Come watch and donate to a great cause!

It wouldn’t be St. Patrick’s Day without a parade, and with hundreds of those going on in the area you are bound to find one close by! Catch the world’s largest parade in NYC this Saturday at 11:00 a.m. staring on 44th Street or check here for parades on Long Island!

 

Here are some cool ideas on fashion, food and more to help celebrate this week!
