From her colleagues (dare to unlock the restraining box):

“I had the privilege of working with Tricia on the Alumni Board of Directors of Harvard University's Kennedy School of Government up until 2007. Apart from her amazing networking skills I was particularly impressed with her ability to stay focused and cut through extensive clutter to get to the heart of the many projects she championed for alumni. She is the sort of friend or contact you can build on and trust. Herr academic work in the field of foreign and security policy is impressive. I particularly appreciate her work exploring how tolerance, awareness and dialogue can be strong instruments even in times of violence.”  Svend Olling, Deputy Chief of Mission, Danish Embassy, Berlin

"At every turn in her career, Ms. DeGennaro always strives to make the world a better place -- one day at a time, one person at a time, one business at a time.  She succeeds because of her persistence, empathy and unique set of skills." -- Heidi Meinzer, USAID and Peace Corps colleague.

“Tricia is a spirited leader and has demonstrated exceptional judgment at EDC.” -- Stephen Hayes, Vice President, New York City Economic Development Corporation.

From her university students (unlocked minds want to know):

"National Security Policy is overall the best class I have taken at the School for Continuing and Professional Studies at NYU. Credit for that can be given to the professor.".

"The [scenario] assignments are excellent at encouraging critical thinking about all possible policy aspects of decision making and who they may affect."

"She knows how to ask probing questions without making one self conscious giving us confidence to learn more."

"The most important thing I learned was to ask questions.  I will keep asking them long after this class."

"She brings a unique insight to world events and policy challenges."

"“My experience with Tricia was as her student in her National Security Policy course at NYU. Attending her course greatly helped me in preparing for a graduate program in Security Studies at Georgetown's School of Foreign Service. Tricia is a dedicated and creative educator, who knows her material, loves in inspire discussion, and is willing to tackle the task of tackling challenging or controversial lines of inquiry. She is innovative in her approach, and willing to employ her network of friends and colleagues to help in bringing her students the best education possible in limited spans of time.”
