Shirley M. Tilghman has been with Princeton University since 1986. She started out as a faculty member in the Life Sciences. On May 5, 2001, Shirley Tilghman was elected Princeton University's 19th President.
Ms. Tilghman has done a lot of wonderful things for the University. Here is a short video on her approach to diversity and inclusion as it relates to the University. She is speaking at the Awards ceremony sponsored by the ABPA (Association of Black Princeton Alumni).
The ceremony was held at the newly refurbished and dedicated Carl A. Fields Center, located on Prospect Street on the University Campus. The building was originally the Elm Club (Eating Club). It is also across from the old "Third World Center."
Shirley Tilghman talks about the significance of the Carl A. Fields Center. She makes reference to the October 2009 conference (Coming Back and Moving Forward) and the need to discuss the students of color and life on campus and the need to engage the alumni of color as well.
