Roosevelt University and Robert Morris University Illinois recently submitted an application to the Higher Learning Commission to integrate our two universities. In this episode, President Mablene Krueger of Robert Morris sits down with President Ali to offer her perspective.
Mablene is a proud Robert Morris alumna and first-generation college graduate. After joining the Robert Morris faculty in 1980, she rose through the ranks to become the university’s first woman president.
Mablene shares how the integration will ramp up opportunities for students, faculty, staff and the greater Chicagoland area. She also discusses the historic missions of the two universities, the importance of student support services, and the changing landscape of higher education.
