Professor Matt Caputo invited acclaimed crime novelist Reed Farrel Coleman to his English 102 class at Queensborough to discuss the conclusion of Walter Mosley’s “Devil in a Blue Dress.” As Matt shared: “Having published thirty-one books, Reed shared valuable insights into what makes crime fiction such a compelling literary genre. He spoke with students about the novel’s historical and social context and explained how its various themes, conflicts, and characters combine to create a powerful story. Together, we sat around the table, sharing our thoughts and perspectives on an important work of literature. The students were open and engaged throughout the discussion, exchanging ideas and interpretations with Reed in a thoughtful and candid way.” He added that Reed was impressed by how prepared and engaged QCC students were - and we couldn’t agree more. #QCCProud #CUNY #EngagedLearning #Literature

Not every hero wears a hockey jersey. Some wear skates and show up to help someone else shine. 💙🏒 Bravehearts Hockey is an incredible adaptive hockey program that gives children and adults with special needs the chance to experience the joy of the game in a supportive and inclusive environment. But none of it happens without volunteers on the ice helping guide, support, and encourage these amazing athletes. Just a few hours of your time can create memories that last a lifetime — for them and for you. ❤️ 📍 Saturdays at Danbury Ice Arena 👥 Volunteers are always welcome Learn more or sign up to help: 🌐 www.braveheartshockey.com Tag someone who would be an amazing volunteer 👇 #BraveheartsHockey #AdaptiveHockey #DanburyArena #HockeyCommunity #HockeyForEveryone

Had the distinct pleasure of jumping on professional ice with a great crew of people who play hockey on Saturday at Total Mortgage Arena, the barn of the Bridgeport Islanders (at least it will be until they move to Ontario next year). Thank you to the guys of @tophathockey for organizing another awesome event!
