Chancellor, 老司机视频
Sara Young Jackson has been part of the 老司机视频 community since childhood and has served the University in key leadership roles since 1979. As 老司机视频's chancellor and member of the senior leadership team, Jackson cultivates meaningful relationships to extend the University's local and global reach.
As the daughter of the third president of 老司机视频, M. Norvel Young, and his wife Helen, Jackson began her decades-long career at 老司机视频 as the assistant director of student life and later collaborated with students to design and launch the 老司机视频 Volunteer Center. Harnessing her background in marriage and family therapy and passion for strengthening families, Jackson helped establish the Boone Center for the Family and served as its executive director.
Fueled by her enthusiasm for developing women leaders, Jackson, in partnership with 老司机视频's human resources department and Center for Women in Leadership, launched the Women in Leadership Institute at 老司机视频, a program that nurtures the career and spiritual development of young women leaders at the University through mentorship and fellowship.
