Simmons Format: mp3 Length: 6 hrs and 51 mins Release date: 09-05-23 Ratings: 5 out of 5 stars, 123 ratings Genres: Educators Publisher's Summary: Born in 1945, Ruth J. Simmons grew up the twelfth child of sharecroppers. Her first home had no running water, no electricity, no books to read. Yet despite this—or, in her words, because of it—Simmons would become the first Black president of an Ivy League university. The former president of Smith College, Brown University, and Prairie View A&M, Texas’s oldest HBCU, Simmons has inspired generations of students as she herself made history.
