Mr. Víctor Rodríguez

vmr-pictureMr. Víctor Rodríguez is a Lecturer and Interim Coordinator of General Counseling at Bronx Community College (BCC) of the City University of New York. He has over 25 years of counseling, advising and teaching experience at BCC as well as the City College of New York (CCNY).  Over the years, he has taught psychology and freshman orientation courses. He has a Master’s degree in psychology from CCNY and a Master’s degree in Social Work from Lehman College (CUNY). In addition, he has a license to practice Social Work in New York State. He enjoys counseling and teaching where he incorporates the use of technology to motivate students both in and outside of the classroom.

A product of CUNY as well as the SEEK program (Search for Education and Knowledge), Mr. Rodriguez understands the challenges many inner-city students face today. It is not unlike his own experience growing up in the Lower East Side of Manhattan within a community that was plagued by drug addiction and violence. One of eight children born to Puerto Rican immigrants, Mr. Rodriguez was raised to value education, religion and hard work. Years later, he has the honor of sharing his knowledge and experience with students facing similar challenges. True to his Latino roots, Mr. Rodriguez is an active member of the Association for Latino Faculty and Staff at Bronx Community College, a member of El Centro: the Center for Puerto Rican Studies at Hunter College and a member of El Taller Puertorriqueno in Philadelphia.  He is also an active member of the National Association of Social Workers (NASW) and the American Psychological Association (APA).
