Celebrating Women’s History Month

Presidents on Presidents: Celebrating Women Who Tell Our Stories

In celebration of Women’s History Month, APLU invited President Joan Gabel, University of Minnesota, and Chancellor Cindy Larive, University of California Santa Cruz for a conversation centered on this year’s theme of “Celebrating Women Who Tell Our Stories.” We invite you to listen as two influential leaders of APLU member institutions discuss their journeys to university leadership, the challenges and successes of leading a large public research institution, the importance of mentorship, and share wise words of advice to current and future leaders of public universities.

Celebrating Women Leaders in STEM: Sharing Insights, Experiences and Pathways for the Future

On March 23, 2021, APLU hosted a webinar in celebration of Women’s History Month featuring a panel of women leaders advancing inclusion in STEM. During the event, we heard from each speaker on their personal journey as a woman who has either navigated STEM careers in the academy, or has led the way in creating opportunities for women in STEM at their institutions, and what public universities can do to provide more leadership opportunities for women in the STEM field.
