As we kick off Women’s History Month, Susan Esper ’91, ’19P, ’22P joins host Bridget E. Anthony ’22, ’23G for a conversation about leadership, service, and the path that brought her back to Friartown as chair of the Board of Trustees. 

In this episode, Esper reflects on her experience as a student, the mentors who shaped her, and the professional journey that unfolded after graduation. She shares insight into what the board of trustees does, what it means to serve as chair, and how decisions that impact the college are made. 
As the first woman to serve as chair of the board, Esper also speaks about what that milestone means to her, the responsibility and opportunity it carries, and her hopes for the next generation of Friars. 

This conversation is about more than titles — it’s about purpose, perspective, and the lasting impact of a Providence College education.
