“Tribute to Women is the community’s opportunity to recognize the outstanding women who live and work among us,” said Princeton University Director of Public Affairs Karen Jezierny, the event’s chairwoman. “What is particularly terrific is that we recognize the work women do in lots of different contexts: those from the paid work environment, volunteers, and volunteer leaders. Our honorees can come from any industry or endeavor, and this makes our program unique.”
The Greater Princeton community is invited to support the event and laud the awardees.
