New York City Midtown Campus

The New York City campus of Berkeley College is a perfect example of how an environment can enhance a college education. Occupying some of the most well-known real estate in the world, Berkeley's midtown building is on 43rd Street between 5th and Madison, literally just steps from countless business and cultural landmarks. As an international center for business, finance, design, and other industries, the location is strategic for pursuing internship and career opportunities.

Museums, Broadway theaters, libraries, churches, historic sites, and much more are all in close proximity. Berkeley is home to the WindowsWear museum featuring fashion window displays from world class brands used on 5th and Madison avenues. Students are also drawn to the city’s diverse neighborhoods and world-renowned landmarks like Wall Street, Greenwich Village, SoHo, Chinatown, Little Italy, Central Park, the famous Fifth Avenue shops, and the United Nations, to name just a few. There’s no end to the fine restaurants, street festivals, and year-round special events that add an extra dimension to the college experience.

Spotlight On: New York City Campus Operating Officer Linda Mauro
What kinds of skills have you learned or developed since coming to Berkeley College?
I’ve learned a variety of skills in leadership starting with finding my own leadership style. In turn, this creates a collaborative culture of engagement through interdepartmental communication, teamwork, differentiation, and creativity. I’ve further developed my project management approach, community engagement, and networking. A large part of my responsibilities, which is an ongoing learning process, is with an ever-changing economy and how it applies to budgeting, operations management, and capital improvement.
What excites you about your job?
What excites me the most is seeing our students graduate! Knowing that I’ve helped one person or several, knowing that I’ve helped change lives positively is very rewarding. My students motivate me, and I learn from them. I believe in the Berkeley mission and values and work toward upholding regularly. I truly enjoy working with the faculty and staff.
What sort of career obstacles have you faced, and how did you overcome them?
There is much that goes into the job of a Campus Operating Officer. It is inspiring and wonderful while it is demanding and complex. Like many in leadership positions, you must face adversity and learn how to overcome it. I practice learning from obstacles rather than dwelling on what is beyond my control. Challenges will always be there in work and in life, it’s about how one perseveres through making fair and logical choices or decisions. The COVID-19 pandemic is a perfect example of a large obstacle, and I overcame it by staying positive, focused on my purpose and priorities, resulting in learning new ways to adapt.
How is your Berkeley College campus unique?
The New York City campus is in the heart of the Big Apple with so many attractions surrounding the campus, including the beautiful Bryant Park, theaters, restaurants, and easy transportation. It’s a diverse cultural mecca welcoming all students locally and globally.
What advice do you have for prospective students/current students/graduates?
Don’t be afraid to work hard because hard work always pays off. Don’t be lazy because laziness will get you nowhere. Don’t be afraid to make mistakes, but be sure to learn from those mistakes for the next time.
