St. Augustine’s University

Dr. Cheri Philip was an invited speaker for a Career Panel during Women’s Empowerment Week at St. Augustine’s University in Raleigh, NC. The Women’s Empowerment Workshop and Luncheon, Weaving HERSTORY: Weaving the Story of Women’s Lives was held on March 28, 2015 in the Martin Luther King Jr. Bldg on the campus of St. Augustine’s University. Dr. Philip was asked to speak on her experiences as an educational entrepreneur and balancing the demands of being a wife and homeschooling mother. The women student leaders in attendance were extremely appreciative of the sage advice given by all four panelists on how to balance career and family life, and what priorities and factors to consider when choosing a career path.
