Women’s Leadership Symposium - Crowd of diverse women holding hands with arms raised

This June, join the Ohio University and The Ohio State University alumni associations for the 2018 Women’s Leadership Symposium, a recognition and discussion of extraordinary women and women’s issues.

Titled “A Day to Inspire,” the symposium will take place June 16 in Columbus and is the first ever event of its kind to be presented by OHIO and OSU. This event will feature lively discussion about women’s issues, including topics on career, leadership, health and more.

The keynote speaker is Yvette McGee Brown, former Ohio Supreme Court Justice and graduate of both OHIO and OSU. Brown was appointed to the Ohio Supreme Court in 2010 by former Ohio Governor Ted Strickland and served through 2012.

Faculty, staff and alumni from both Ohio institutions are invited to hear Brown speak, as well as multiple other presenters. The event will give attendees the opportunity to share each other’s company and engage in thoughtful discussion.

“The OHIOAlumni Association is thrilled to partner with The Ohio State University’s Alumni Association for this memorable Women’s Leadership Symposium,” said Dawn Werry, the OHIO Association’s senior director of external relations. “This event will celebrate the many accomplishments of faculty, staff and alumni from both universities, and willalso give women a space to talk about current issues.”
