Photo Caption: New York State Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie, during a visit to Berkeley College in White Plains, NY, described his career in public service and told students, to overcome shyness and obstacles, “Believe in yourself. It is easier to speak on something you are passionate about. People are always going to fight for what they believe in. You have to find your passion and translate your passion. There will be people around to help you … Wear your passion everywhere.” His visit on December 12, 2019 included meeting with students (photos top and below right) as well as a tour with (below, left, left to right) Robert Miller, Campus Operating Officer – White Plains; Assembly Speaker Heastie; Wendy Hewlett, Director, Career Services; and Marsha Pollard, PhD, Provost. |
