What Does The Women's Place Mean to You?

In honor of The Women's Place 20th Anniversary in 2020, Jamie Mathews-Mead, Wendy Smooth and Cynthia Callahan share what The Women's Place means to them.

"I was asked, 'What’s the best thing that’s happened to you in 18 years at OSU?' and without hesitation I replied, 'President and Provost's Leadership Institute and my subsequent lasting relationship with The Women’s Place.' TWP has helped me find out who I really am and what my role is in the academy, and I still seek guidance and advice from the people I have met there."

Michael Ibba, Professor and Chair, Department of Microbiology

"The Art of Hosting was transformational in starting me down the path I’m on; truly a different way of thinking and being. It helped me understand you could think and lead differently, from a co-hosting, co-leading model. Importantly, it gave me tools to lead and engage differently."

Mary Jo Burkhard, Associate Dean, Veterinary Medicine

"A lot of my growth and development can be contributed to The Women's Place. The mentorship and leadership training I have received from TWP have help me grow and develop as at leader here at OSU. Each class, conference and meeting I attended provided priceless benefits to me as an individual, to the work I do at OSU, and the community I serve."

Shelly Martin, Business Operations Consultant, Wexner Medical Center
