This series is being brought to you in celebration of Dr. Denise Swett and her love, commitment and service to higher education.  As a seasoned professional and dear friend, Denise touched the lives of thousands of students and administrators.  In this episode, San Lu and Gail Rulloda of Napa Valley College shared their approach to leadership in their work with Disability Support Programs & Services (DSPS).
