St. Joseph's (L.I.) to Provide On-Campus Housing Beginning Fall 2017

Patchogue, NY| St. Joseph’s College (NY) President Jack P. Calareso, Ph.D. announced on Thursday afternoon plans to construct a 300-bed residential facility on the Patchogue, NY campus expected to be completed prior to the fall 2017 semester.

The residence hall will be located directly across from John A. Danzi Athletic Center on the former Gregg Alfano Athletic Field. The facility will include a dining room, common areas and laundry rooms and will be built in partnership with Mosaic Capital Group, Markline Industries and Place Properties.

Construction is expected to begin in the spring of 2016.

“I am confident that the decision to provide student housing at SJC Long Island will not only positively impact future enrollment, but will help us continue to thrive as an exceptional institution of higher learning,” said Calareso of the plans.

The addition of on-campus facilities will not only improve overall student enrollment, but it will aid athletic recruitment and the processes of building the department’s newest athletic programs (men’s lacrosse and men’s volleyball) from the ground up.
