  • History of the White Plains Location
    CELEBRATING OUR 75th WITH CONTINUED SUCCESS As Berkeley College celebrates its 75th year, its five campuses each look to a record of achievement that can best be summed up as a living history that balances the parallel interests of students with the demands of the marketplace. Predictably, each has, with individual flair and the familial strength that is Berkeley, reached its own pinnacle of success. With the country focused once more on good news as World War II ended, the exodus from metropolitan areas to the suburbs was reflected in business as well as by families seeking the American dream. To Berkeley, it was a time that signaled expansion — and the birth of the Westchester campus. New York City to White Plains, where classes took place in four rented rooms in the Reporter Dispatch Building. From the start, the expansion to Westchester proved a brilliantly calculated plan. It wasn’t long before the number of enrollments demanded additional space, resulting in two moves and the eventual purchase of a former church in White Plains to accommodate the growth of the campus. One early accomplishment that became a school-wide Berkeley Advantage™ was the comprehensive reference guide created by Ethel Townsend. The Berkeley Manual of Style, containing regularly updated rules of grammar and Westchester Campus punctuation, has served three generations of graduates, as well as their employers.
