About the Keynote Speaker, Dr. Glenda Baskin Glover, Ph.D., JD, CPA

 

Dr. Glenda Baskin Glover began serving as President of Tennessee State University on January 2, 2013.  She has advanced a five-point vision that includes: (1) academic progress and customer service, (2) fund raising and partnerships, (3) diversity and inclusion, (4) shared governance, and (5) business outreach.

 

Dr. Glover was formerly the Dean of the College of Business at Jackson State University in Jackson, Miss., where she led the College of Business throughout the accreditation process, and spearheaded the implementation of the nation’s only Ph.D. in Business at an HBCU. She is a certified public accountant, an attorney, and is one of two African American women to hold the Ph.D.-CPA-JD combination in the nation.

 

Dr. Glover's educational development began as a student at Tennessee State University, where she majored in mathematics.  After graduating with a Bachelor of Science degree, she pursued the Master of Business Administration at Clark Atlanta University. She then completed her doctorate in business from George Washington University, and later completed her law degree from Georgetown University.
