Through the Public Leadership Education Network at Douglass (PLEN), young leaders who care about the future of women and girls across the globe prepare to make their mark on the world. For Sumer Chaudhry DRC’25, that journey started this past fall in our nation’s capital.
As a public health major with double minors in health administration and psychology, Sumer is interested in the way federal policy influences the health and wellness of everyday Americans. Through Douglass, Sumer traveled to Washington DC to attend the PLEN Health Policy Seminar.
Douglass sits down with mother and daughter duo, Cassandra and Lucy, to learn more about how the Douglass experience took Cassandra's college experience to the next level!
Douglass is a launchpad for student success. Through an interdisciplinary curriculum, students prepare to be leaders in every space where decisions are made—including the workplace. At Networking Night, Douglass students met with reps from major companies such as Bristol Myers Squibb, PSEG, Verizon, L’Oréal, AT&T, and many more. They learned about each industry, received insights into the working world, and connected with future employers.
