Sister Peg Albert, OP, PhD

Sister Peg Albert served as an associate professor of social work, counselor and vice president at Barry University before arriving at Siena Heights as its 10th President in 2006. Under her leadership, Siena Heights has seen unprecedented growth, including the establishment of nursing, football and band programs.

Her student- and mission-centered approach has included physical improvements to the residence halls, athletic facilities and student union. SHU’s On Higher Ground Campaign raised more than $19 million — surpassing its original $13 million goal. Siena Heights was also named a “Best College to Work For” by The Chronicle of Higher Education.
