BOWIE, Md. – Bowie State Athletics Academic Enhancement Advisor Dr. Marie Brown has been selected to be on the Emerging Leaders Seminar Participant selection committee announced earlier this month. Dr. Brown previously served as a participant in the Emerging Leaders Seminar in 2016.

"I am honored to serve on the committee to select the next group of emerging leaders and future athletic administrators," said Dr. Brown. "The wealth of knowledge I gained when I was selected to attend is valuable and set the ground work for success."
A Bowie State alum, Dr. Brown is in her fifth year as the Academic Enhancement Advisor at Bowie State. In her role, she works closely and is an advocate for student success through the academic lifecycle of the student-athletes by achieving success with innovative courses, programs, services and student-centered initiatives.  

The seminar is a three-day virtual program that educates, develops, and connects the selected participants and equips attending young professionals with the skills necessary to accelerate their career progression in college sports. This professional development event provides leadership, educational and transitional programming for current graduate assistants and interns from NCAA member schools, conference offices, and affiliate organizations. Along with other committee members, Dr. Brown will help ensure that the participant base is a strong group of individuals that are enthused by the opportunity to develop professionally and personally. Additionally, the committee will assist the participant's preparation to implement what they learn at the Seminar on their respective campus or at their conference office, as well as eager to return and lead discussions with student-athletes, coaches, and fellow administrators.

This year's program will take place virtually February 8-10, 2023.
