HBD, Susan B.!

Happy 202nd Birthday, Susan B. Anthony! Today, we celebrate her legacy of leadership during the fight for women’s suffrage. Last week, Mercy faculty, staff, students, Board members, and alumnae attended the 2022 Susan B. Anthony Birthday Celebration hosted by the National Susan B. Anthony Museum & House. Attendees heard from keynote speaker MiMi Aung, an engineer and former project manager at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory. Her speech about determination, hard work, and finding a career doing what you love was inspirational. Susan B. Anthony’s unwavering pursuit of justice and equality inspires us all to make our voices heard, reminding us that, “Failure is impossible!”
