Last week, we were thrilled to welcome Manhattan Deputy Borough President Miesha Smith to Guttman! She toured campus, met with President Elizabeth de León Bhargava, and connected with our students, staff, and faculty. Her insights on community boards, civic engagement, and leadership sparked meaningful conversations across campus.
As Deputy Borough President, she champions public education, small businesses, and arts and culture — priorities that resonate deeply with our mission.

Welcome back to CUNY, Miesha! Our students loved learning from your dedication to public service.

“Guttman is home to me. And choosing Guttman to do this presentation is something that is a no-brainer to me.”
On September 29, Guttman alumnus Bashir Juwara returned to Guttman Community College to present research from his University of Cambridge MPhil in Development Studies dissertation, “The Impact of USAID Cuts and Other Foreign Aid in The Gambia.”
He also reflected on the path that brought him here, including the role his experiences at Guttman played in preparing him for the next steps in his academic journey.
Bashir’s story is a reminder that graduation doesn’t have to mark the end of someone’s connection to Guttman. Our alumni remain part of this community, and we’re always proud to welcome them home.
