TANIA TETLOW UPTOWN PRESIDENT Loyola University New Orleans

Describe what you love about what you do. I get to lead an institution that transforms lives. Loyola is the reason my own family went from coal mining to university president in two generations. Why in New Orleans? This is the center of the universe. A visitor once asked me, "why are they having this parade?" I told him, "I don't understand the question. Why wouldn't we have a parade?." Describe what you see as our future. We are poised to transform our creativity into the kind of innovation that drives invention and entrepreneurship. What would people be surprised to know about you? I sing opera, and as a wonderful distraction, I have quietly started taking voice lessons again from Loyola's famous vocal music faculty.
