She has been the president of Saint Paul College since July 2019, and is the first woman president in the College’s 114-year history.  

Under her leadership, Saint Paul College was fully reaccredited by the Higher Learning Commission; has committed to becoming an anti-racist and trauma-informed; and has redeveloped its mission, 愿景, and values to reflect its student-ready-campus culture and foundation in social justice.  Prior to Saint Paul College, Peaslee served at Anoka-Ramsey Community College for 17 years. In addition to her experience in the Minnesota state system, she was the assistant dean for the Kellstadt Graduate School of Business at DePaul University; a career planning specialist for ACT, 公司, and the interim placement director for South Dakota State University.

By 2028, Saint Paul College will graduate 1500 more students of color from academic programs that lead to jobs providing a familysustaining wage.

2028年愿景

总统 Peaslee’s 愿景 for implementing our current strategic plan, Creating a Stronger Future 2025, focuses on two key pathways to further student success. The first is to facilitate transfer to four-year colleges by expanding and strengthening partnerships with these institutions, ensuring a seamless process for students seeking bachelor’s degrees.

The second pathway is to significantly increase the number of students of color who graduate from Saint Paul College by 2028, with a goal of reaching 1500 graduates from programs that directly lead to high-demand, well-paying careers. These pathways reflect 总统 Peaslee’s unwavering commitment to both 股本 and economic empowerment, ensuring Saint Paul College plays a crucial role in creating a more just and prosperous future for its students and the broader community.
