In this episode Martha and Indira have a conversation with Lisa Coleman, thefirst woman and first Black person to be president of Adler University—a private graduate studies university dedicated to graduating practitioners who will lead social change and create a more just society. Founded in Chicago in 1952 to continue the work of Alfred Adler, a physician and psychotherapist who emphasized the individual’s need to engage with community and create positive social impact. In addition to the Chicago campus, Adler University also has a second campus in Vancouver, making it unique in educating graduate students in both the United States and Canada. Dr. Coleman earned a bachelor’s degree in sociology and anthropology at Denison University in Ohio and her master’s degree from Ohio State University. She received a Ph.D. in social and cultural analysis and American studies at New York University. Prior to assuming the presidency, she held administrative positions at Tufts University and Harvard and was the first senior vice president for global inclusion and strategy innovation at NYU. What a treat it is today to be able to have a conversation with Lisa Coleman, a trail blazer and academic leader.Contact She's Got Nerve Email [email protected] Visit our website https://nerve2021.com/ Follow us on Instagram @nervebook2021 and LinkedIn @she'sgotnerve A special thanks to our team:Marketing Manager & Producer | Orla McErleanShow Manager | Eilis CourtneyThanks for listening to She's Got Nerve!
