Leadership Development
One of the top priorities in Academic Affairs is to nurture leadership and support succession planning. Currently, have we hold annual competitions to send women faculty and administrators to the HERS (Higher Education Resource Services) Institute, and host three fellows for the Mid-American Conference Academic Leadership Development Program (MAC-ALDP).
HERS (Higher Education Resource Services) Institute
- Each Fall, Academic Affairs asks for Deans to nominate outstanding women to attend the HERS (Higher Education Resource Services; ) Institute in either Denver or Bryn Mawr. HERS Institutes () provide an intensive 12-day, residential program that prepares women faculty and administrators for institutional leadership roles. Academic Affairs will sponsor up to three women to attend each year. Á½ÐÔÉ«ÎçÒ¹ as a whole has sponsored 13 women to attend HERS over the last 5 years.
