Father Brian Shanley Took Charge of St. John’s University on Monday, Feb. 1
HILLCREST Father Brian Shanley has left home, once again.
On Nov. 24, St. John’s University announced it had elected him to be its 18th president. His new job began on Monday, Feb. 1.
But Father Shanley, a Dominican friar, grew up in Warwick, a suburb of Providence, R.I. home of Providence College, where he spent four years as a student, earning a history degree in 1980.
Later, Father Shanley served 15 years as the college’s president, gaining notoriety by improving campus facilities, increasing the faculty, and building a more diverse student body. He is the college’s 12th and longest-serving president.
