- “Great causes for a great university!”
- “I have been a volunteer for the Adelphi New York Statewide Breast Cancer Hotline and Support Program for over 3 decades. Not a day goes by that the Adelphi staff and volunteers don’t work tirelessly to help all men and women dealing with breast cancer. They are so committed to providing the best resources and services for breast cancer.”
- “I would like to pay tribute to Kim Newman, Marketing Director and Communications Specialist for the Adelphi Breast Cancer Program. Kim is an ‘unsung hero’ whose behind-the-scenes work for the program has been second to none and quite impactful. Her selfless nature, drive and dedication to the Adelphi Breast Cancer Program are an inspiration to everyone at the program and in the community. Thank you, Kim, for your outstanding contributions.”

It was a great place to learn—so flexible that I finished my degree in just two years. My granddaughter attended Adelphi, and my grandniece is there now, both in the Speech Pathology program. I return often for Veterans events. I love AU. Go Panthers!”
