Limestone College Director of Social Work Technological Services, Mary Willis, has been invited to be a delegate at the University Leadership Summit this October.
The primary objective of the University Leadership Summit is to explore the key aspects and issues related to best practices in higher education and their application as business drivers for innovation and growth.
