"Because CNR is a small college I never
feel as if I am just a number.
All the faculty and staff seem to have a vested interest in my success
as a student."

Why did you decide to
attend The College of New Rochelle?
After researching graduate programs in the Westchester
area, it became obvious that CNR had such well renowned programs of
study in the human services field. The scholarship and graduate
assistantship offerings seemed very generous as well.

What class is one of your
favorites?
I truly enjoyed the course
“Counseling the Culturally Diverse.” Dr. Kenneth Doka did a magnificent
job with this class by making it interactive and so useful for future
encounters with culturally diverse clients.

Of all the CNR professors
who is one of your favorites?
So far I have been very
impressed by the faculty in my program - all of whom have numerous
degrees and real world experiences that they are willing to share.

Do you have a job on
campus?
Yes, I am a graduate
assistant in the Dean's office of the Graduate School.

Do you know where you are
headed after graduation?
I plan on becoming a middle
school guidance counselor. I also intend on completing a certificate in
marriage and family therapies. Someday I may even complete a
doctorate to have a private practice.
