Join us for a moderated discussion with Debra Lee, Former Chief Executive Officer of BET, led by L. Hazel Jack, Vice President for University Communications and Events.

Honored as one of the most powerful women in the media and entertainment industries, Debra Lee led BET Networks to become the largest global company dedicated to African American programming. She blazed new trails as one of America’s rare African-American female CEOs, growing BET’s brand presence from a network known mostly for music videos to a ratings record-breaker. Ms. Lee’s barrier-breaking journey to the corner office and the ranks of industry power players is as inspiring as her many achievements.
