About This Event
2023 Regis Lecture Featuring Cynthia Cooper
Cynthia Cooper – named one of Time Magazine’s Persons of the Year for her role in unraveling the fraud at WorldCom - is an internationally recognized motivational speaker, author of Extraordinary Circumstances and consultant as CEO of The CooperGroup.
This event is inspired by the knowledge that education is the tool that ends multigenerational poverty, first-generation college graduates Dan and Cecelia Regis have spent decades helping students access higher education. Dan's career, including his work in venture capital and as a Managing Partner at Price Waterhouse (now PwC), provided him the tools and resources he is now sharing with future generations. Dan's father, Jud Regis, modeled the values of faith, family and freedom which he passed on to his children. Dan and Cecelia honor Jud by investing in the Jesuit tradition of academic excellence and teaching, which relies on a process of wrestling with competing points of view.
