Beginning in 2009, SEF began producing a series of filmed interviews with education advocates and leaders at various stages in their careers to capture their personal stories, foster mentorship, and promote the intergenerational exchange of information and ideas on social change and education. Norman Francis, President of Xavier University of Louisiana and the longest serving college president in the United States was interviewed for this effort and provided meaningful advice and wisdom on what real leadership looks like and what is needed from tomorrow's next generation of leaders (including our President) to make our society more equitable and just.
