The Ruth E. Salzmann Center for Women’s Leadership welcomes and serves all students and community members who are interested in learning from achievements of women leaders. We empower women and their allies through education, mentorship, research and collaborative initiatives that bridge campus and community.

We highlight the experiences of women leaders through an annual leadership conference, a speaker series, a podcast and more, to provide strong examples for all leaders in the community.

By fostering dialogue, building skills for students and professionals, and creating connections, we develop leaders and support them in driving positive change in their organizations and community.
