President Jay Gonzalez
Welcome to Curry!
My name is Jay Gonzalez and I have had the honor of serving as President of Curry College since 2023. In just a few short years, we’ve made significant strides, and the energy on campus is truly inspiring. I am so proud of all we’ve accomplished together and genuinely excited about the journey ahead.
A Bold Strategic Vision
At Curry, we’re guided by a transformative three-year strategic plan designed to elevate our distinctive educational offerings, strengthen our community, and expand our impact. This plan focuses on five key initiatives: enhancing support for neurodivergent learners through our Neurodiversity Center for Excellence, launching the Curry Commitment job guarantee program, expanding our athletics programs, creating new revenue streams through a Center for Innovation, and deepening our community engagement. These initiatives reflect our commitment to innovation, excellence, and student success.
Our community has come together around these strategic initiatives, and we’ve raised our game in every way. That’s why our financial results have improved each of the last two years, and we’ve just had the two highest fundraising years in Curry’s history.
The Curry Commitment - Career Readiness and Student Success
Our new Career & Experiential Learning (CXL) center is up and running, offering expanded career readiness programming and support. We’ve partnered with hundreds of employers through our new Curry Connectors program, and we launched the Curry Commitment—the only job guarantee program of its kind in Massachusetts.
Academic Innovation
We’ve revamped our academic programs to better meet market demands and prepare our students for career success. That includes launching a new Exercise Science major, updating our Business and Communication programs, and developing exciting new master’s degrees that are on the horizon.
We also introduced the President’s Leadership Program and the President’s Speaker Series—because at Curry, we’re not just preparing students for careers, we’re helping them become lifelong leaders.
Supporting Neurodivergent Students
We’re building on the legacy of PAL as a national leader in supporting students with learning differences. Our new Neurodiversity Center for Excellence (NCE) is expanding access and impact for neurodivergent students through innovative programs like SAIL and Curry Catalyst. And we’re extending our reach beyond campus, offering training and support for neurodivergent workers in industries like health insurance, biotech, and law.
Athletics on the Rise
Curry’s athletics program is thriving. In 2025, we added new teams in men’s volleyball and men’s and women’s track & field, and our men’s hockey team made history as the #1 ranked team in the country, making it all the way to the NCAA Frozen Four!
A Vibrant Student Life
Thanks to our doubling of funding for student events and the addition of new spaces like the Esports Lounge, the Commuter Lounge, and Einstein Bros. Bagels, student engagement is way up. And in the fall of 2025, students will begin enjoying a beautifully renovated social space where they can relax and have fun.
Meet Graham!
One of the most beloved additions to campus life has been Graham—our spunky, uber-friendly golden retriever and official community support pup. Named after Alexander Graham Bell, Graham is a joyful presence on campus, often seen playing in Westhaver Park or greeting students outside the Stu and the President’s Office. One cuddle with Graham is guaranteed to brighten your day. He’s a symbol of the warmth and care that defines our Curry community.
My Journey
Before coming to Curry, I was a partner at Hinckley Allen, advising public entities on capital projects and strategic initiatives. I served as Secretary of Administration and Finance for Massachusetts, managing a $32 billion budget during the Great Recession. I also led healthcare organizations as President and CEO of CeltiCare Health Plan and New Hampshire Healthy Families, and I was the Democratic nominee for Governor of Massachusetts in 2018.
I earned my B.A. from Dartmouth College and my J.D. from Georgetown University Law Center. I’ve taught as an adjunct lecturer at Northeastern University School of Law and served on numerous nonprofit boards. I live on the Curry campus with my wife, Cyndi Roy Gonzalez, and our buddies Graham and Winks the cat!
