WiSys names UW-Green Bay’s Susan Gallagher-Lepak ‘Innovation Champion’

The WiSys award recognizes UW System leaders, faculty, staff, students or community partners who have played an integral role in building a culture of innovation at a UW System regional institution.

ADVOCATE FOR STUDENT INNOVATION

Even before becoming the Dean of the College of Health, Education and Social Welfare, Gallagher-Lepak found ways to be a leader in advocating for students and expanding their educational experience. While serving as an assistant professor, she became connected with WiSys and quickly became a strong promoter of WiSys’ services among her colleagues. 

“I’ve always wanted to push for more innovation on campus, regardless of my role,” she said. “As dean, it’s been really important to me to think about innovation and have students gain innovation and entrepreneurial skills across campus.”
