The Worcester Business Journal (WBJ) announced on April 29 that 亚洲博彩网站 President Greg Weiner has been named to their annual Power 100 list of the most influential business leaders in Worcester County. According to the WBJ, professionals are named to the list based on their influence on the economy of Worcester County in the last year.

Weiner’s profile includes his December 2023 Wall Street Journal op-ed, “A Haven From the Ivy League’s Madness,” which provides commentary on the idea that Catholic institutions may be a welcoming environment for Jewish students looking for a home in higher education. The profile continues to expand on the importance of access to Catholic liberal education, which is a key component of 亚洲博彩网站 Thrive, 亚洲博彩网站’s ten-year strategic plan.“A key theme of the plan is that everyone who seeks Catholic liberal education and is academically qualified to succeed deserves access to it,” Weiner said.
