SAB Brings 'Scandal' Inspiration, Successful Businesswoman Judy Smith to Campus
LEXINGTON, Ky. (Oct. 2, 2014) — The Student Activities Board Multicultural Affairs Committee is launching the “Women of the World” lecture series at 7 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 11, in Memorial Hall. The first lecturer is Judy Smith, America’s No. 1 crisis management expert and the inspiration for ABC's smash hit "Scandal."
The “Women of the World” lecture series celebrates a diverse group of women in various forms of power. All students and staff are welcome, male or female. Attendees will hear about the struggles and successes Judy Smith has faced and will have the opportunity to ask her questions.
“Audiences will hear Judy Smith speak on her experience as a successful businesswoman, how she attained success and barriers she’s had to overcome on the way,” Kristyn Cherry, director of multicultural affairs, said. “Smith is known as the inspiration behind ABC's hit show 'Scandal,' and she is also the president and founder of Smith and Company and has been a consultant for many high profile clients including Monica Lewinsky and Michael Vick.”
