Happy #womensequalityday! We celebrate today in honor of the 19th Amendment, which gave women the right to vote. Today we also express our gratitude to the women before us who’ve fought hard for our rights and freedoms, as well as those who continue to do so today. It's a fitting day for the first day of classes at Mount Mary University, an urban Catholic university for women, sponsored by the School Sisters of Notre Dame. Mount Mary provides an environment for the development of the whole person and encourages leadership, integrity, and a deep sense of social justice arising from a sensitivity to moral values and Christian principles. #WomenEmpowerment #TogetherWeLead #WomenSupportingWomen #IAmMountMary #equality

The WLI provides high-impact programs that help you embrace your strengths, develop your skills and pursue your dreams.
About us
The Women's Leadership Institute at Mount Mary University was established in 1998 with a bold vision to help women develop their full potential to be transformational leaders. The Institute provides an ideal support system for aspiring leaders of all kinds. Join us for our high-impact programs in a collaborative, creative environment that helps you embrace your strengths, develop your skills and pursue your dreams. The Women's Leadership Institute has three yearly events: Voices of Leadership, the Summer Leadership Academy and the Woodrow Wilson Visiting Fellow program. The Voices of Leadership event fosters conversations with women leaders who have broken ground in entrepreneurship, innovation, social change and leadership. These women share their experiences, stories and best practices to help you see and pursue your own leadership potential. This speaker series fosters conversations with leaders from all walks of life to inspire community partners and students. The Summer Leadership Academy brings together high school girls from across the U.S. to campus for a residential college-prep, career exploration, and leadership program. During the Academy panels, lectures and interactive workshops are presented by experts from a variety of backgrounds, including law, business, education, and non-profits. The Woodrow Wilson Visiting Fellow program exposes students to outstanding individuals in professional fields to discuss and contemplate the sometimes irregular paths Fellows took before achieving eminence in their chosen vocations. Through a week-long residential program of classes, seminars, workshops, lectures informal discussions, and a community keynote event, the Fellows create better understanding and new connections between the academic and nonacademic worlds.
