The College of New Rochelle Appoints New Dean of School of New Resources

Dr. Stephen J. Sweeny, President of the College of New Rochelle (CNR), recently announced the appointment of Elza Dinwiddie-Boyd as Dean of the School of New Resources (SNR). Ms. Dinwiddie-Boyd, formerly the Campus Director of the Rosa Parks Campus of SNR, has been serving as Acting Dean of the School of New Resources since July, 2001.

“Elza Dinwiddie-Boyd has had a long and distinguished history with the School of New Resources and the College,” said Dr. Sweeny in making the appointment. “As a teacher and administrator, she has gifted us with her considerable talents and profound passion for our mission. She is a woman of wisdom, energy, commitment and a passionate educator.”

Throughout her career, Elza Dinwiddie-Boyd has worked tirelessly to open the doors of higher education to the non-traditional adult student. Ms. Dinwiddie-Boyd came to CNR’s School of New Resources New York Theological Seminary Campus in September 1981, as a faculty member in the writing program and in 1985 was appointed to the instructional staff. In June, 2000, she was appointed Director of the Rosa Parks Campus of the School of New Resources.

In 2001, Ms. Dinwiddie-Boyd was honored at the Harlem YMCA 31st Annual National Salute to Black Achievers in Industry (BAI).

Prior to coming to the College of New Rochelle, Ms. Dinwiddie-Boyd was a member of the founding team of Wayne State University’s groundbreaking Community Extension Centers, an academic program designed to serve adult learners. She served as Assistant Director of the Community Extension Centers for nine years while earning her M.Ed. at Wayne State University. She has also done post-masters work in the field of linguistics.

Ms. Dinwiddie-Boyd is an author, editor, and an educator. She is the author of seven non-fiction books and most recently published In Our Own Words: A Treasury of Quotations From The African American Community and Proud Heritage: 11,001 Names for Your African Baby. Her articles have appeared in a number of national magazines, including Essence and Gospel Today.

The School of New Resources (SNR) was established in 1972 at The College of New Rochelle’s main campus and the District Council 37 Campus (44 East 2nd Street – temporary location) and has, since then, expanded to five other branch campuses throughout New York City, providing a four-year college degree program within the City’s neighborhoods. The first Catholic college for women in New York State, The College of New Rochelle was founded in 1904 by the Ursuline Order. Today, it comprises the all-women School of Arts & Sciences, and three schools which admit women and men: the School of New Resources (for adult learners), the School of Nursing and the Graduate School. The main campus of the College is located in lower Westchester County, 16 miles north of New York City. The College maintains six other campus locations in New York City.
