The Tiny Long Island College That Gives Every Admitted Student A Full-Tuition Scholarship

On the North Shore of Long Island, there is a college where nobody admitted pays tuition. Not a single student, not one semester. It is a small school with a big mission: training the people who design and build ships. In a time when college costs can follow graduates for decades, this place has held onto a tradition of generosity that feels almost old-fashioned.

Port Washington football breaks 50-year drought — and isn’t stopping there

On Friday, Port Washington’s varsity football team won its first playoff game since Gerald Ford was president. The Vikings (7-2) routed Plainview-Old Bethpage 40-0 in the opening round, snapping a postseason drought dating to 1976 and advancing to the Nassau County semifinals. “We’re not satisfied just because we won a game,” senior right tackle Max Eynon, who protects his twin brother, QB Harry Eynon, told The Post. “There’s no surprise on this field, and with this team that we got here.

Out in Jamaica, there is a Portuguese kitchen where the sausage can arrive with a little showmanship, the platters are built for sharing, and servers still steer first-timers through a menu thick enough to need a table of its own. Families book it for Mother’s Day, couples keep it as a date night habit for years, and soccer fans grab a seat on the casual side when a big match is on.
