Diane Recinos, EdD, President of Berkeley College, has been named to City & State New York’s 2023 Higher Education Power 100 list, featuring the most influential leaders of New York’s colleges and universities. Recinos was appointed President of Berkeley College in March 2022. This is the second consecutive year she has been named to the Higher Education Power 100 list.
“Leading a college or university is not limited to such traditional responsibilities as carrying out an educational mission, overseeing faculty and staff, balancing budgets and serving as an institution’s public face,” said City & State in an article announcing the list. “We identified the college and university officials making the biggest difference, both on campus and off, whether it’s spurring job growth, advocating for policy changes or advising city and state government officials.”
In addition to Recinos, the list features higher education leaders from Cornell University, New York University, Columbia University, the State Senate Higher Education Committee, and other prominent colleges and universities.
Throughout her career, Dr. Recinos has been on the frontlines of serving students – and is their biggest advocate. Her priorities include ensuring that students have access to quality support services and career possibilities.
Recinos began her career at Berkeley in 1992 as Director of Financial Aid and took on expanded roles in technology and analytics. As Senior Vice President, Student Success and Senior Vice President, Enrollment Management, her leadership has spanned Campus Operations, Admissions, Marketing, Student Development and Campus Life, Academic Advisement, the Office of the Registrar and the Office of Military and Veterans Affairs. She became Interim President in October 2021, and was named President by the Berkeley College Board of Trustees in March 2022.
