My son is looking closely at Hofstra. He is in his senior year this year, and interested in Theatre - Technical Direction. I would love to hear any experiences or reputations for the following. Please respond to any or all of the subjects you know of.

The Theatre department - particularly the production sequence.
Hillel/Jewish observance - My son is observant and is on a more observant path than we have followed. I have seen there is a kosher place listed in the dining facilities (but I have the impression it’s along the lines of a coffee shop?) Is Hillel all reform? Is there is an orthodox community near the campus?
Learning Disabilities - I see the description of The Program for Academic Learning Skills (Student Access Services: PALS | Hofstra University). It sounds good. Any experiences to share?


Thanks!
