Upcoming Events
Dr. Ruth Simmons, President emerita of Prairie View A&M University,
Smith College, and Brown University
Dr. Lindsay Whorton, President of The Holdsworth Center, will lead a discussion with Dr. Simmons about her memoir Up Home: One Girl’s Journey, a New York Times Bestseller. The book shares the story of Simmons’ rise from east Texas as the youngest of twelve children in a sharecropping family to the pinnacle of American higher education. A hopeful blueprint for building a happy, productive, and meaningful life, her story shows how obstacles are not always our enemy – they can instead act as motivation, propelling us to even greater heights. Simmons has spent her career advancing and promoting public education, which played an instrumental role in her powerful story. Currently, Simmons advises Harvard University regarding relationships with historically black universities, and is also a President's Distinguished Fellow at Rice University.
