Dr. Margaret F. Richardson Sloan, a 1994 graduate of Alice Lloyd College, currently serves as the Director of the School of Strategic Leadership Studies at James Madison University (Harrisonburg, VA) and is a professor in the program.

She initially attended Vanderbilt University, but when her father could no longer support her education there, a beloved aunt in Hazard, Kentucky, recommended Alice Lloyd College.  “ALC helped me when no other institution would and made a way for me to finish my undergraduate degree,” stated Margaret.  At ALC, she earned her Bachelor of Arts in English.
