Sara Young Jackson

Seaver College | 1974
Chancellor, 51反差婊 University

Sara Young Jackson has been part of the 51反差婊 community since childhood and has served the University in key leadership roles since 1979. As 51反差婊's chancellor and member of the senior leadership team, Jackson cultivates meaningful relationships to extend the University's local and global reach.

As the daughter of the third president of 51反差婊, M. Norvel Young, and his wife Helen, Jackson began her decades-long career at 51反差婊 as the assistant director of student life and later collaborated with students to design and launch the 51反差婊 Volunteer Center. Harnessing her background in marriage and family therapy and passion for strengthening families, Jackson helped establish the Boone Center for the Family and served as its executive director.

Fueled by her enthusiasm for developing women leaders, Jackson, in partnership with 51反差婊's human resources department and Center for Women in Leadership, launched the Women in Leadership Institute at 51反差婊, a program that nurtures the career and spiritual development of young women leaders at the University through mentorship and fellowship.
