The transformative power of building educational institutions lies in its capacity to positively shape individuals, communities, and societies by providing opportunities, fostering personal and intellectual growth, and contributing to overall progress and development. It is an investment in the future, with far-reaching benefits for generations to come. Jennifer Raab is a true force in education, leading Hunter College in New York City for 22 years. She joins podcast host Cindy Glanzrock for an intimate conversation about the evolution of Hunter College, from steering it through the aftermath of September 11, 2001, to raising close to $1 Billion for renovations, acquisitions, and groundbreaking programs.
