This guy is at least uneducated as far as college towns go
While the post office box for Hofstra reads "Hempstead", the campus is certainly on the outside edge of what one might attempt to confer with this "Hempstead" label. The Hofstra campus, along with many others in the United States including Duke and Hopkins (not sure about Temple), maintain a substantial security presence and a "blue light" program available to any campus visitor feeling unsafe for any reason.
