Show Notes

At Mount Mary University, everything starts with one belief: when women thrive, communities do too.

We’re joined by Dr. Isabelle Cherney, President of Mount Mary University, a local institution with a powerful legacy and a bold vision for the future. From innovative three-year degree programs, to expanded healthcare and nursing labs built for hands-on, integrated learning, Mount Mary is rethinking how education meets students where they are.

Dr. Cherney also shares why expanding access to fields like engineering, cybersecurity, and analytics is critical to ensuring women have a voice in traditionally male-dominated industries. At the center of the conversation is the new Institute for the Advancement of Women and Children, which brings together efforts to address pressing challenges facing women and families. 

MOUNT MARY UNIVERSITY
An urban Catholic university for women, sponsored by the School Sisters of Notre Dame, provides an environment for the development of the whole person. The University encourages leadership, integrity, and a deep sense of social justice arising from a sensitivity to moral values and Christian principles.
