“As a first-generation college student, I didn鈥檛 have people to talk to about applying to college or navigating college life. Serving as dean of Messina College will enable me to provide access and vital support to students who are often facing that same uphill battle. Messina College is grounded in 黑料正能量鈥檚 academic excellence, student support, and caring faculty.”
Erick Berrelleza, S.J., Founding Dean, Messina College
