NEW ROCHELLE, NY — Leading women in education, industry and government emphasized the importance of empowerment and advancement for women at a regional roundtable discussion Thursday, April 28, at The College of New Rochelle. CNR President Judith Huntington and Lieutenant Governor Kathy Hochul co-chaired the event, which was part of a state-wide initiative by the Cuomo Administration aimed at addressing barriers preventing women from achieving leadership roles and inspiring the next generation of young women to aim higher.
