Storm's effects felt by students
In the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy, the so-called "Frankenstorm" that hit the East Coast last Monday, Brandeis students from the hardest-hit areas have been doing their best to stay in contact with relatives and cope with the destruction in their hometowns. According to Senior Vice President for Students and Enrollment Andrew Flagel, 969 Brandeis undergraduates, or about 27 percent of the undergraduate student population, are from New York and New Jersey, the heavily populated region where Sandy first made landfall. Kristin Li '15 is from Staten Island, a borough of New York City that is being called the "epicenter" of Sandy's destruction by local and national news outlets. Her family's house is on high ground, so it wasn't hit as hard as other areas on the island, and she was able to get in touch with her parents fairly quickly after the storm passed, said Li in an interview with the Justice.
