Glazer recently spearheaded a national study on Holistic Admissions in the Health Professions and in 2013 was named one of Ohios Most Powerful and Influential Women by the National Diversity Council.
Mometrix compiled its ranking through a system in which points were awarded to each dean based on a variety of data, including awards, top 10 rankings, National Institutes of Health funding, National Council Licensure Exam passing percentage and more.
