JERSEY CITY, N.J. | New Jersey City University (NJCU) President Sue Henderson, Ph.D. has been named to the 2021 ROI Influencers Power List for Higher Education by ROI-NJ, a statewide leading business publication.

Guarini Institute for International Studies in November, 2020, and the continued development of the cutting-edge Center for Music, Dance and Theater (CMDT) —  both of whom will be named in honor of Frank J. Guarini, the former congressman, philanthropist and real estate developer, whose generous $10 million gift last spring has helped accelerate the progress of both projects.

Dr. Henderson is further applauded for NJCU’s work to further the educational opportunities for the underserved communities it serves as the educational anchor institution in Jersey City.
