Welcome to Campus Conversations: The Shawnee Community College Podcast. We will hear from campus leaders, community leaders, alumni, students, athletes, and much more on this podcast! Let us know what’s on your mind, and we may cover that topic too!
On this episode of Campus Conversations, Shawnee Community College President Dr. Tim Taylor sits down with Lynne Chambers, attorney and Executive Director of Legacy Training, Inc.
Their conversation takes a thoughtful look at equity and equality in southern Illinois, what those terms truly mean, where progress has been made, and where more work is needed. Lynne shares insights from her legal background and leadership experience, while Dr. Taylor reflects on the role higher education plays in advocacy, access, and community impact.
Together, they explore leadership rooted in service, the importance of courageous conversations, and how individuals and institutions alike can help create more inclusive, equitable communities.
