From Tigerland to Ivy League — Peggy O’Neal graduates from football president to University Chancellor
Manage episode 349477376 series 2887867
“Education can change your life in a generation.”
When RMIT University announced its newest Chancellor would be Richmond Football Club President Peggy O’Neal, those words from her mother might just have been on Peggy’s mind.
From the tiny coal-mining town she grew up in, Peggy became the first member of her family to graduate university. Then the first woman hired by an establishment law firm. And then the first female president of the Richmond Tigers AFL club.
Now Peggy will take her formidable leadership skills into higher education.
