School Ad?

Is it just me, or does this page read like an ad for the school? There's really no history here, nor is there any mention of the recent downturn the school has taken (the campus has really become dilapidated and overgrown and classroom after classroom is empty) or the recent consolidation and closure of much of the campus and its satellites. There's also no mention of its criminal justice background (it was once a prominent criminal justice school before becoming more mainstream, which some credit its downfall to). It wouldn't be too hard to expand this article to include all of that. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.165.126.111 ( talk) 11:34, 13 September 2009 (UTC) reply

I agree. One very useful bit of information, student:faculty ratio, is not disclosed; this means it's not possible to assess where in the academic firmament this place fits. There are some very serious questions to be raised about the college's marketing programs.-- RRassendyll ( talk) 12:14, 25 September 2011 (UTC) reply

Semi-protected edit request

In early 2019, Mercy College and College of New Rochelle announced that College of New Rochelle (CNR) would be absorbed into Mercy College before Fall 2019, including College of New Rochelle's students, faculty, programs, some facilities, as well as transcripts, history and legacy of CNR alumnae/i. Mercy College would become the repository of CNR documents. [1]

In March 2019, the agreement between the College of New Rochelle and Mercy College was finalized. [2]

On August 12, 2019 it was announced that William Latimer, the 14th and final College of New Rochelle president, will join Mercy College as vice president of its New Rochelle and Bronx locations. "Mercy announced the move Monday, two days after the last day of classes in CNR’s 115-year history. Mercy is leasing CNR’s main campus in New Rochelle for up to two years, at $1.8 million a year, and it says nearly 1,700 students from CNR are becoming Mercy students this fall."

Formerly Catholic

There is not currently any explanation in the article of how the university ceased to be a Catholic school, which seems important. natemup ( talk) 11:40, 18 September 2021 (UTC) reply
