Bethune-Cookman partners with the League of Black Women

Bethune-Cookman University has established a partnership with the League of Black Women Global Leadership Research Institute to research the barriers Black women face in acquiring leadership positions.

Sandra Finley, president of the League stated, “Black women cannot wait for the economic condition of the country or the world to improve before they start to plot their strategy to ascend the ladder and assume positions of power and influence. Black women are weary of waiting for earned opportunities that are promised but go unfulfilled. We want Black women to see themselves as being able to grasp these opportunities today, as in right now.”
