The Newcomb College Institute would like to extend an invitation to this year’s Adele Ramos Salzer lecture on women’s education titled, “What’s Feminism Got to Do With It? Women’s Leadership for Social Change.” This year’s featured speaker is Mary Trigg.

Dr. Trigg is a scholar and practitioner of women’s leadership in multiple contexts. She currently holds the role of Associate Professor in the Department of Women’s and Gender Studies at Rutgers University and the Director of Leadership Programs and Research at the Institute for Women’s Leadership. Dr. Trigg is the founding director of the Leadership Scholars Certificate Program, a leadership education honors program for undergraduate women, and has co-founded four additional leadership programs for women at Rutgers. In addition, she directs the research at the Institute for Women’s Leadership.

We’d like to encourage you to rally your student leaders and to join us in this discussion about our future generation of leaders, who, as Dr. Trigg puts it, “are navigating their own dreams at the same time they are embodying and formulating new models of leadership for the twenty-first century.”

The event will be held on the Uptown campus in the Anna Many Lounge in the Caroline Richardson Building on April 7 from 5:30-6:30 pm.
