Iona University President Named to Westfair’s 2022 Persons of the Year

Iona University President Seamus Carey, Ph.D., was named to Westfair’s “2022 Persons of the Year,” a prestigious list of the top leaders in Westchester and Fairfield counties. Noting the innovative leadership and inspirational intellect of the group, the publishing company selected this exclusive list of the Top 10 professionals across a diverse range of industries.

“In compiling our list for 2022’s Persons of the Year, we are reminded that the concept of ‘business as usual’ is nowhere to be seen in this gathering of the region’s best and brightest,” they said.   

Of Carey, the publishers noted: “Carey shepherded the transformation of Iona College into Iona University. The achievement of university status this year followed Iona’s expansion to the campus of former Concordia College and Concordia’s students who wished to continue their educations at Iona. The Concordia campus became a health sciences-focused school at Iona, which is continuing its expansion after launching a new nursing program. As a result of Carey’s work, Iona’s enrollment and educational activities have seen a remarkable expansion.”

Westfair publishes the Westchester County Business Journal, the Fairfield County Business Journal and WAG Magazine.
