LUPINACCI ATTENDS "NOAH" GRADUATION CEREMONY

Lupinacci speaks at Hofstra University's NOAH graduation luncheon.

Assemblyman Chad A. Lupinacci (R,C,I-South Huntington) recently attended Hofstra University’s graduation ceremony as a special guest and was also the honorary speaker for the New Opportunities at Hofstra Program (NOAH). This program provides academic, financial and social support resources for a wide array of students from various backgrounds.

“The NOAH program is an absolutely wonderful program to have at Hofstra University,” said Lupinacci. “The transition between high school and college can be tricky and this program not only provides much needed guidance in the form of a pre-freshman summer academy, it supports students throughout their collegiate careers. The more programs like NOAH we can have at the college level, the more our students will benefit.”

Lupinacci had the pleasure of speaking at the NOAH luncheon and was thrilled to award the graduating students certificates of merit and ceremonial New York State Assembly pins.

“This ceremony has brought things full circle. I remember all of these students from when they were just freshmen and walked through my classroom doors for the first time. I wanted to thank the NOAH program for all they do and wish these graduates all the success in the next chapter of their lives,” Lupinacci said.
