We are deeply saddened to announce the tragic passing of our student, Dior Berkeley, and our former student, Kimani Foster, due to a car accident.
Dior was a sophomore majoring in Sociology/Anthropology. Kimani was a sophomore majoring in Criminal Justice. Kimani was a recent transfer to John Jay College from the College of Staten Island. Both lived in our residence hall, Dolphin Cove, last year.
