A Welcome from the Executive Vice President, Chief Operating Officer

Welcome to Trocaire College!

 As someone who grew up in Buffalo, it is both an honor and a joy to return home and serve our institution that plays such a vital role in shaping our region’s future. At Trocaire, we are proud to be part of a community that empowers our students to reach their full potential—academically, personally and professionally.

As President Deeb often reminds us, Trocaire is more than just a college; it is a mission-driven institution grounded in the values of compassion, service, and excellence. Inspired by our founders, the Sisters of Mercy, we believe in the transformative power of education. As they so beautifully said, “Education makes possible a life of dignity and self-worth.”

 Every student’s pathway is unique, and we are here to support yours. Whether you're just starting or continuing your educational journey, you’ll find a strong network of resources, faculty, staff, and peers who are all invested in your success. Please take full advantage of the support systems available to you and never lose sight of the excitement and pride you felt when you were first accepted into your program.

 No matter what obstacles arise, remember: every challenge can be overcome—and you are never alone in facing them. Keep your eyes on your goals, and trust that you have everything it takes to succeed.

 We look forward to all that you will achieve here at Trocaire and beyond.
