Felician College's First Secular President Has Big Plans For One Of N.J.'S Smallest Schools

The first time Anne Prisco stepped onto Felician College’s campus, the veteran college administrator was undercover. Her disguise: A helpful aunt looking for a college for her California-based niece. Her true mission: Scope out the small New Jersey college that invited her to apply to be its new president. Using her maiden name, Prisco took a campus tour, chatted with the student tour guide, rode the shuttle bus and walked through a dorm. After a few hours, she concluded the 2,200-student Catholic college in suburban Bergen County seemed like a good fit.
