Former Rockland Community College Head Will Reprise Role at WCC

Dr. John F. M. Flynn, who served a year as interim President of Rockland Community College , is taking on that role for Westchester Community College.

Dr. John F. M. Flynn has been selected as Westchester Community College’s Interim President, said WCC spokesman Patrick Hennessey.

"This will be the second time that Dr. Flynn has served as an Interim President of a SUNY institution," he said. "In 1992-1993, he was Interim President of Rockland Community College." 

Flynn began serving as president of WCC in January and will continue until a permanent successor to Dr. Joseph Hankin, the college’s longtime president who just retired, is hired.

Dr. Flynn was WCC's Vice President and Dean of Academic Affairs from 1983 to 2005. He then returned to the ranks of fulltime faculty at the college.
