In making the announcement, then-Hofstra President Dr. James M. Shuart said, “I am happy that the best person for the position of Director of Athletics was already here on campus in Harry Royle. He has served this University well for 27 years, and we are excited for him as he leads the Athletic Department into the 21st century.”

Royle, a Hofstra alumnus who received his bachelor’s in history in 1970 and master’s in educational administration in 1990, has worked in the Athletic Department at Hofstra for more than three decades.

30 H OFSTRA U NIVERSITY HOFSTRA HERITAGE

The history of athletics at Hofstra is as old as the University itself, and is steeped in the Dutch heritage that helps to make Hofstra such a unique school.

Hofstra has always had strong roots in tradition. Ties to Dutch heritage and the Netherlands began with William S. Hofstra, after whom the school is named and on whose property the University was started. When the doors opened in 1935, the sole building on campus was Hofstra’s mansion, which he had affectionately named the Netherlands after his homeland. The mansion, which houses administrative offices, is now the center of Hofstra’s 240-acre campus, and has been renamed Hofstra Hall.

Also adopted in this early stage of Hofstra’s history was the school alma mater, “The Netherlands.” The lyrics were written by a faculty member to the music of the Dutch national anthem by the 16th-century Dutch composer Valerius. The Hofstra Flag The Hofstra storm flag is modeled after an actual Dutch the orange hue with gold, geus, a privateer’s flag. In 1991 a representative of making the flag truer to the Holland’s Queen Beatrix presented the banner to then original House of Nassau. Hofstra President (now President Emeritus) James M. The flag is one of Hofstra’s Shuart. The history of the flag dates back to 1572, most recognizable symbols, when a group of Dutch loyalists called Watergeuzen utilized in publications, pins used the flag’s mast to ram the gates of a Dutch city in and souvenirs. their opposition to Spanish rule. While the Netherlands Royal Navy flies the original red, white and blue geus, The Hofstra Seal the Hofstra version has been redesigned in the school The Hofstra seal, another easily recogniza- colors of gold, white and blue. ble emblem, was designed from the royal Dutch emblem by art instructor Constant Van de Wall. The seal is The gold, white and blue Hofstra colors themselves modeled on the coat of arms of the House of Orange- spring from Dutch roots. The first official Hofstra flag Nassau. The round seal includes the coat of arms, appeared on April 19, 1940, when Dr. Alexander flanked by lions on either side. A lion also stands in the Loudon, an envoy for Queen Wilhelmina of the center of the coat of arms, holding a sword in its right Netherlands, presented his country’s flag to Hofstra in a claw and a bundle of seven arrows, which represent the special ceremony. However, the flag he presented was seven provinces of Holland, in its left. The seal also not the red, white and blue flag of the Netherlands, but carries the motto of the House of Orange-Nassau in Old the orange, white and blue banner of William of French: “Je maintiendray” (I stand steadfast). In 1988 Nassau with a Hofstra emblem placed on the flag. The one of the two lions on the seal was officially replaced University has used the design ever since, although with a lioness. The seal is now the focal point of the President Shuart, after researching the colors, replaced “Hofstra Pride” logo.

SOFTBALL 2003 31 The Hofstra Nicknames The Hofstra nickname has also evolved over the years. For decades, Hofstra athletic teams have used the nicknames Flying Dutchmen, Dutchmen, or Dutch. Recently, an additional nickname of The Pride has become popular. We have not changed our nickname. We are both the Dutch (and its variations) and the Pride.

The Pride nickname started during the University’s dramatic recovery and growth in the mid to late ‘80’s from a major fiscal crisis during the previous decade. The first consistent use of the word “Pride” relating to athletics started in 1989 when the University’s athletic booster club was founded and called itself The Pride Club. At that time it had no meaning associated with our who could beat her in a foot race. While she would be teams.

However, they Hofstra, as a group of lions is called a pride. In 1995 angered Venus for their failure to thank her.

32 H OFSTRA U NIVERSITY ACADEMIC SUPPORT

H ofstra University is committed to Hthe pursuit of academic and athletic excellence. The University views participation in intercollegiate athletics as benefiting the student-athlete in an educationally enhancing experience beyond any other opportunity available. Hofstra also realizes the time commitment made by student-athletes and has committed the facilities and resources to support all students.

The University Tutorial Program (UTP) provides free tutoring in every subject area to any Hofstra student. In addition to this service, the UTP has an athletic component that addresses the academic needs of studentathletes. The UTP academic counselor administers this athletic component. The UTP emphasizes four areas in their efforts to ensure the academic success of Hofstra’s student-athletes.

Area one is academic counseling. Services are provided in the areas of academic planning, career planning, personal counseling, and campus and community referrals. The counselor also meets with prospective student-athletes, at the coach’s request, to share the many benefits of a Hofstra University education.

Area two is academic advising. In an effort to ease the demand on the Office of Advisement, the UTP academic counselor also advises first year and undecided student-athletes.

Area three is academic monitoring. The UTP counselor monitors the academic progress of student-athletes to ensure compliance with Hofstra University, NCAA and conference regulations. The counselor’s regular communication with the faculty and coaches provide an opportunity for early intervention should academic difficulties arise.

Area four is study halls. The University Tutorial Program provides all athletic study halls with tutors in various subjects and assesses the needs of individual student-athletes to provide the most effective study environment. The assessment tool administered by the UTP is also used to provide various enrichment seminars for the student-athletes such as time management, writing skills, campus resources, and surviving the college transition.

In the fall of 1999, the Pride Teaching and Learning Center opened on the second floor of Margiotta Hall. Funded in part by proceeds from the Joe Gardi Golf Open, the state-of-the-art computer lab and learning center features a projection system and 18 computer work stations, which are connected to the University network for easy research access to the Internet.
