Hofstra introduced the Lions in 1987, but they weren't made official until July 1, 2005. How should that be listed? MBisanz
Notable alumni
The alumni section has had a run of false or gratuitous entries. It may still need pruning. Please ensure accuracy. And not everyone is famous. Unless someone is obviously famous, it would help to provide some documentation. (The director of marketing for The Sandwich Factory, for example, if he even exists, does not appear on google, and warranted deletion.) If you have serious contributions, it would help to back them up or they will disappear. CHE 15:22, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

Can't possibly be true
> Herbert A. Deutsch, composer, inventor of the Moog synthesizer (Hofstra Alum)
Nonsense! If he invented it, it would be called the "Deutsch Synthesizer" It is absolutely true! Goto his web page at Hofstra.edu and read his official bio. He "assisted" in the development of the Moog synthesizer.
No it is true, I had a class with him and he was only the co-creator. It pretty much came down to the fact of bad business ethics. He also showed us a segment of a program that was on A&E I think that also said he was one of the co-creators. Why would he lie about it anyways?
