Forever revering her Montclair education, Arlene Crescenzi Allen ’64 left a transformational gift to the University that will assist generations of students in gaining their teaching education.

As Executive Vice President, Regional Businesses at Quest Diagnostics, Catherine T. Doherty ’84 is responsible for 90% of the company’s $10 billion annual revenue and 85% of its employees. As a member of the Feliciano School of Business Advisory Board, she is helping to ensure that Montclair’s business students get the highest value possible from their higher education investment.

In their newest book, Montclair Professors Emeriti Nicholas M. Michelli ’64 and Tina J. Jacobowitz lay out a rationale for education as the path to social justice.

When he arrived at Montclair, Ken Jeanos ’90 was sure of two things: his love for mathematics and the importance of hard work. These priorities continue to ring true for Jeanos, now that he is chief information officer of General Dynamics Electric Boat, the leader in the design, construction, delivery and maintenance of nuclear-powered submarines for the U.S. Navy.

Alumni Frank Colombo ’12, Drew Heimlich ’12 and Frank Nelson ’84 are “Paying it Forward” with a scholarship and mentoring initiative that spans generations and springboards students to success.
