S10 E3—The return of the R-word is about more than language. The words we choose both reflect and shape our moral imagination. When disability becomes an insult or a political weapon, it influences how we understand human worth, vulnerability, and belonging. In this conversation, Christina Cipriano, PhD, joins Amy Julia Becker to explore her research on political language and disability, including the return of the R-word. They discuss what these patterns reveal about the systems shaping care, education, and belonging, and they consider: how can we resist dehumanizing language and choose words that move us toward justice and joy?00:00 Introduction to Disability Discourse Matters06:53 Asset-Based vs. Deficit-Based Perspectives10:27 Personal Narratives and Language Choices19:49 The Rise, Fall, and Rise of the R Word23:42 Dehumanization in Political Rhetoric28:47 Historical Context of Disability Discourse33:00 Disability Language and Future Generations40:48 Reimagining Disability and the Good LifeMENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:Disability Discourse MattersThe Education Collaboratory at Yale | Child Study CenterSpread the Word – Special OlympicsMontclair University: Use of the Slur [r-word] Triples on X After Elon Musk Shares the Word in a PostBe Unapologetically Impatient by Christina CiprianoEuphemism Treadmill article_SUBSCRIBE to Amy Julia's Substack: amyjuliabecker.substack.comWATCH this conversation on YouTube: Amy Julia Becker on YouTubeJOIN the conversation on Instagram: @amyjuliabeckerLISTEN to more episodes: amyjuliabecker.com/shows/_ABOUT OUR GUEST:Christina Cipriano, PhD, is currently an associate professor of applied developmental and educational psychology at the Yale Child Study Center in the Yale School of Medicine and Director of the Education Collaboratory.

In a recent interview with CancerNetwork®, Nicholas Hornstein, MD, PhD, an assistant professor at the Donald and Barbara Zucker School of Medicine of Hofstra University and Northwell Health, discussed emerging data and clinical shifts in the care of patients with gastrointestinal (GI) cancers ahead of the 2026 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting.Advancements in Colorectal CancerHornstein highlighted the increasing integration of targeted therapies into the first-line setting for patients with colorectal cancer (CRC). For those with BRAF V600E-mutated metastatic disease, data from the phase 3 BREAKWATER trial (NCT04607421) support moving targeted therapy into the first line.1 He noted that initiating these therapies early is critical, as a significant percentage of patients may experience rapid clinical decline and lose the opportunity for second-line treatment if targeted options are delayed.In the HER2-positive space, clinicians currently utilize tucatinib (Tukysa)-based regimens or fam-trastuzumab deruxtecan-nxki (Enhertu). Hornstein also anticipated the arrival of bispecific antibodies, such as zanidatamab-hrii (Ziihera), which are expected to gain approval in upper GI cancers before moving into the CRC landscape.The Role of ctDNA and Pancreatic CancerRegarding localized disease, Hornstein discussed the potential for circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) to guide adjuvant therapy for patients with stage II colon cancer. Data from trials like CIRCULATE (NCT05174169) are expected to further clarify how ctDNA can assist in the escalation or de-escalation of treatment.2 In pancreatic cancer, the phase 3 RASolute 302 trial (NCT06625320) investigating daraxonrasib is poised to change the standard of care for patients with second-line pancreatic cancer immediately upon an anticipated regulatory approval.3Barriers to Precision MedicineA primary unmet need that Hornstein identified was the low rate of biomarker testing; currently, only about half of patients with metastatic disease receive necessary sequencing or microsatellite instability testing. Hornstein emphasized that multidisciplinary cooperation and improved systems are essential to ensure all patients with targetable mutations receive appropriate care. Finally, he highlighted the development of large language model tools to assist clinicians with data ingestion and clinical trial matching.References1. Kopetz S, Wasan HS, Yoshino T, et al.

On this episode of the SeventySix Capital Sports Leadership Show, Wayne Kimmel interviewed Marc Riccio, President & CEO of USA LacrosseA former collegiate lacrosse player at Hofstra, Riccio's professional experience has led to specialties in media, fan engagement, sport and entertainment business operations, building new companies, revenue generation, executive leadership, and employee development.Under Riccio's leadership, USA Lacrosse has focused on three core principles – Fuel the Growth, Enrich the Experience and Field the Best National Teams – while generating record revenue to help support investment in the game.Riccio started his tenure at USA Lacrosse in August 2021 with the sport coming off two consecutive interrupted seasons due to the COVID pandemic. Participation levels have rebounded following that period and USA Lacrosse now has more members in the key 7-9 age segment than at any time in the organization's history.USA Lacrosse has also seen a robust expansion of its national team program, now sponsoring 14 teams from senior-level to youth national teams. On the field, for the first time in more than two decades, the U.S. is ranked either No. 1 or No. 2 in every discipline of the sport and has won five World Lacrosse championships (2022 senior women, 2022 U21 men, 2023 senior men, 2024 U20 women, 2024 women's box) and one World Games title (2025 women's sixes) during his tenure.The national team success comes at a pivotal point. USA Lacrosse was recognized by the U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Committee (USOPC) as part of its Affiliate Organizations Council in 2023 and is on the pathway to becoming an official National Governing Body of the USPOC as the Olympics draw nearer.Riccio spent 17 years leading business operation and development for the NFL's New York Jets before spending seven years ahead of his USA Lacrosse appointment working in roles focused on strategy, growth and organizational change for major sports brands and events.Riccio grew up in Canandaigua, N.Y., and was introduced to the sport when he was 12 years old by a neighbor. He went on to become the first high school All-American at Canandaigua Academy, where he played both football and lacrosse. He was later inducted into the Canandaigua Academy Sports Hall of Fame and the Upstate Lacrosse Hall of Fame. At Hofstra, Riccio played lacrosse for former USA men's national team head coach John Danowski. Riccio is a member of the New York State Bar, has a Juris Doctor degree from St. John's University School of Law, and an M.B.A. in Marketing and a B.A. in Communications from Hofstra University.Marc Riccio:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/marcriccio21/

The Find Your Leadership Confidence Podcast with Vicki Noethling
Find Your Leadership Confidence Podcast Host: Vicki Noethling Guest: Kenneth (Ken) Kunken Today's Interview Title: Making the Most of a Bad Situation What does it truly mean to rise after life delivers the unimaginable? In this powerful and deeply inspiring episode of the Find Your Leadership Confidence Podcast, host Vicki Noethling sits down with Kenneth Kunken—a man whose life is a masterclass in resilience, purpose, and redefining what's possible. At just 20 years old, Ken broke his neck playing football for Cornell University, leaving him almost completely paralyzed from the shoulders down. After a long and grueling hospitalization, Ken made the courageous decision to return to Cornell, where he completed his undergraduate degree in engineering. He went on to earn a Master of Arts in Education from Cornell, a Master of Education in Psychology from Columbia University, and became a nationally certified rehabilitation counselor. Driven by a desire to serve others and make an even greater impact, Ken later enrolled in Hofstra University's School of Law. He spent more than 40 years as a Nassau County Assistant District Attorney, ultimately rising to the role of Deputy Bureau Chief—an extraordinary achievement by any standard. Ken is also a devoted husband and the proud father of triplet sons. In 2023, he shared his remarkable life journey in his book, I Dream of Things That Never Were: The Ken Kunken Story. In this conversation, Ken shares candid insights on perseverance, purpose, and what it takes to keep moving forward—physically, mentally, and emotionally—when life doesn't go according to plan. Some questions asked and answered include: Please share a bit about your journey that led you to what you do today Why is it important to keep expectations high for yourself and for others? What keeps you going, even during the hardest moments? What motivates you to be the best you can be? This episode is a powerful reminder that leadership, confidence, and purpose are not defined by circumstances—but by choice.
“Every person deserves kindness, dignity, and respect, regardless of what their medical situation is,” says Madison Donnelly, PA-C, who joins host Dr. Parsa Mohri on the latest installment of our NextGen Journeys series. As you'll hear in this thoughtful conversation, Madison is bringing that commitment to patient advocacy and equitable care to her patients at Community Care Physicians in Albany, New York. A graduate of Hofstra University's PA program, Madison describes how the profession's flexibility and team-based approach enables clinicians to expand access to care, particularly in high-demand specialties like women's health and primary care. Drawing on her work in obstetrics and gynecology, she highlights persistent gaps in women's health, including America's troubling maternal mortality rates and the long delays many patients face in receiving diagnoses for endometriosis and other conditions. “There's a difference between telling someone something and being heard,” she notes, emphasizing that women's symptoms are still too often dismissed in clinical settings. The episode also explores overlooked populations -- including NICU families and patients with eating disorders -- where stigma, mental health challenges, and fragmented follow-up care can leave people vulnerable long after the initial medical crisis. Don't miss this Raise the Line dialogue about the evolving role of physician associates and how early-career clinicians can help build a more humane and responsive system.

Rob Fried, digital forensics consultant, author, and assistant professor at Hofstra University, joins the Forensic Focus Podcast to talk about the evolving challenges of forensic practice, AI in investigations, and his latest book. Rob discusses his annual publication cadence — now in its fourth edition — and how each year's content is shaped by real cases, collaborations, and emerging topics in the DFIR community. This year's edition tackles AI policy, data culling strategy, and the documentation practices that keep forensic work defensible in court. The conversation also covers the growing complexity of remote collections and the soft skills required to manage them effectively, the tension between targeted and full file system approaches, and what happens when those decisions come under scrutiny in litigation. Rob shares his experience building a forensics practice from the ground up within an established e-discovery firm, his work teaching the next generation of examiners at Hofstra, and his upcoming symposium — now in its fifth year — which this year will focus on open source intelligence and corporate investigations. #mobileforensics #digitalforensics #dfir ⏱️ Timestamps 00:00 Introducing Rob Fried 03:48 Why Rob Keeps Writing 07:33 AI Policies and Teaching 09:39 AI Tools and NotebookLM 11:42 AI Spam Call Story 14:33 Forensic Lab and Data Strategy 22:30 Targeted Collection Risks 26:10 Remote Collections and Soft Skills 33:41 Building a Forensics Practice 35:14 Academia and Closing Skill Gaps 39:17 Forensics Network 41:26 Learning and Collaboration 45:42 Planning the Annual Symposium 50:36 Tech Roots and Career Values 54:49 Swag, Challenge Coins and Future Plans
Head Coach of the Hofstra University Basketball Team, Speedy Claxton, calls into the show to talk about his background, his playing career under Jay Wright, being a first-round NBA pick, and winning an NBA title with the Spurs in 2003, as well as returning to Hofstra as an assistant and now head coach. Claxton says Hofstra isn't satisfied just making the NCAA tournament and expects to win their first round matchup against Alabama, outlining scouting Bama's fast pace and three-point shooting, praising star Cruz Davis for staying and improving, and reflecting on how NIL and the transfer portal affect roster continuity and recruiting, which he says is now largely driven by money.

Today's guest is Hafza Girdap, Spokesperson for Advocates of Silenced Turkey and an Assistant Professor in the Department of Sociology, Criminology and Anthropology at Hofstra University. In this episode, Alon and Hafza discuss the ten years since the attempted coup in Turkey in 2016, the countless human rights violations committed by the Erdogan government since then, and the status of women's rights and minority rights in Turkey. Full bio Hafza Girdap is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Sociology, Criminology and Anthropology at Hofstra University and the Spokesperson for Advocates of Silenced Turkey (AST). She holds a Ph.D. in Women's, Gender, and Sexuality Studies from Stony Brook University, New York. Her research focuses on gender, race, immigration, racialization and identity, human and women's rights in Muslim-majority contexts, and the integration and adaptation of Muslim immigrant women, with particular attention to the redefinition of their cultural identities. Beyond her academic work, Girdap is the director of the Gender Program at the European Center for Populism Studies (ECPS) and the co-founder of Set Them Free, a gender-based advocacy initiative. She is also the first elected Chair of the Muslim+ Feminists Caucus within the National Women's Studies Association (NWSA), where she currently serves as Co-Chair, and a member of the Sister-to-Sister Committee of Sociologists for Women in Society (SWS). In her research, Girdap actively incorporates the voices of female survivors of conflict, examining the coping mechanisms they employ to navigate challenges such as social discrimination, oppression, and violations of basic rights across various contexts—including their home countries, refugee camps, and new settlements. By framing reidentification as a form of agency, her work not only highlights the complexities of identity negotiation but also challenges epistemic dominance by contributing to alternative modes of knowledge production. Girdap has also expanded her work in women's rights advocacy. Over the past seven years, she has organized and spoken at United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) and Commission on the Status of Women (UN CSW) panels, focusing on the experiences and needs of women. She also mentors youth, encouraging their engagement as researchers and speakers in these global forums.

A few years later when Stanley Kubrick was looking to make a (serious) film about the topic he was recommended the book. Dr Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb was the resulting film. The film takes aim at military strategy, rhetoric and the people involved to give us one of the most famous satires in cinema.

On this episode of Coaching Call, Sifu Rafael welcomes Ken Kunken, a man whose life is a testament to resilience, courage, and unshakable determination. In 1970, while playing football for Cornell University, Ken suffered a catastrophic neck injury that left him nearly completely paralyzed from the shoulders down. Refusing to let tragedy define his story, he turned immense adversity into a lifetime of purpose and achievement.After a long recovery, Ken returned to Cornell to complete his engineering degree and went on to earn a Master of Arts in Education from Cornell and a Master of Education in Psychology from Columbia University.
