Jared Alexander, the 2024 Winter Commencement President's Award winner for the Humanities, Business, and Social Sciences division, is no stranger to the RCBC community. His father, Jonathan Alexander, the late professor of English literature and Holocaust studies at RCBC, touched many lives in Laurel Hall, where HBSS resides. Those same hallways are where Jared found his passion for Criminal Justice, thanks to incredibly inspiring professors who led him on this incredible journey, and he shares those stories with us.

RCBC's 2024 Winter Commencement is finally here and we're excited to sit down for a conversation with the President Award winners once again!

He'll discuss his passion for civil engineering including NFL stadiums, provide a motivational message to his peers, and take you inside his experience being a Baron.

The final installment of the RCBC Spring 2024 Commencement coverage catches up with President's Award winner Joseph Vercillo who embarked on a remarkable journey of profound personal transformation through Rowan College at Burlington County 20 years after his last educational experience.
