Meet President Linda LeMura

Video

When Linda LeMura, Ph.D., was named the 14th president of Le Moyne College in 2014, she made history as the first female layperson to lead a Jesuit college or university in the United States. Since then, joy, purpose and passion have guided Dr. LeMura’s work at the institution she often refers to as “our Jesuit gem.” She has said that watching the College’s students transform over the course of their time on campus has been the honor of her professional life.
