Hostos is all about community, and the College came together on April 24 to help mark its 50th Anniversary (officially April 22, 2018) during a day of giving back.
“The Big Event” included street cleanup, as volunteers took to the streets sweeping up refuse and waste in the area. The activity incorporated 149th Street, from Gerard Avenue to Morris Avenue, between 144th Street and 149th Street and included revitalization of Hostos’ Memorial Garden.
Since 1968, Eugenio María de Hostos Community College (Hostos) of The City University of New York (CUNY) has transformed lives and forged futures in the Bronx. It opened the doors to opportunities for education, job training, and other community resources during a time when the City was bankrupt, and it was at that moment that Hostos marked history and made a difference.
The Hostos Community College Foundation is pleased to announce the appointment of Mr. Edwin Rivera-Searles to the Board of Directors of Eugenio María de Hostos Community College.
