March 31, 2026

City & State New York’s annual Bronx Power 100 list, released on today, once again includes Lehman College President Fernando Delgado, noted for his success steering an institution transforming its campus, its programs, and the lives of its students.

The list highlights individuals making a difference in The Bronx, and he was cited for overseeing the College’s “new physical expansions, historic investments, and a commitment to economic mobility for its student body—60% of whom, like Delgado, are first-generation college students.” Also noted were transformative developments under his leadership, including the School of Business, the Center for Nursing Education Research, and Practice, and the $50 million gift from philanthropist Mackenzie Scott.  

Bronx Community College president Larry Johnson Jr. and Hostos president Daisy Cocco de Filippis join Delgado on the list.
