Several colleges and universities in Oregon recently announced new leaders, and many of the people hired for those positions are also the institutions’ first Black president. We convened a conversation among three of these leaders to hear about how they’re approaching their roles and what it means to them to be a Black leader in higher education. University of Portland President Robert Kelly and Lewis & Clark President Robin Holmes-Sullivan join us. They each started their jobs July 1. We also talk with Oregon Health & Science University President Danny Jabobs, who has been at OHSU since 2018.
