Women’s Leadership Living and Learning Community (LLC)

This multiyear program provides women-identified students with critical skills and approaches that support their success as leaders in and beyond the campus community.

A Legacy of Leadership

Bryant has a long legacy of empowering women. “Bryant was one of the first schools that actually enrolled women in an impactful way,” Adriana Minacapilli, archivist at Bryant’s Krupp Library. Today, women at Bryant lead in the classroom, on the field, and in extracurricular settings that develop their passions and purpose.
