Blizzard beauty

Over the weekend, Hofstra University was hit with a blizzard that left over 8 inches of snow on the ground. One of our Pride Guides, Neil Schloth, ventured out into the sub-freezing temperatures to take photos.

His photos came out great! The campus is extremely beautiful in the snow. Since the snowstorm hit during the January break,  regular classes were not scheduled, which means there were very few students on campus. Most of the snow went untouched for days, until temperatures started to rise and the rain began to wash it all away.
