On Sunday, May 4, the Monroe Mustangs men's baseball team won their first-ever NJCAA Region XV Division I baseball championship.    Monroe defeated Globe, 3-2 Sunday afternoon, in a tense, four-hour, 12-inning thriller winning the Region Championship series 2-1 and clinching the title.

On Tuesday, April 22, Monroe College President Stephen J. Jerome, along with elected officials, college administration, faculty, and staff, and community leaders, cut the ribbon on Ustin Hall (YOU-sten), a spectacular 32,000 square-foot building that is the new Bronx campus home to the King Graduate School of Business and the Monroe School of Business.

Since its founding 75 years ago, Monroe College has been dedicated to helping students launch careers.  That mission was on glorious display on Wednesday, March 26 as the OCA held its Spring Job and Internship Fair.  As many as 750 Monroe students and graduates were greeted by more than 80 employers in hopes of landing a job or internship.

As New Year's revelers welcomed 2008, the Monroe College community began a year-long toast to 75!  It was seventy-five years ago, in January of 1933 - during the worst part of the Great Depression - that visionary people with the foresight and conviction to follow their instincts created what has become Monroe College.
