South Carolina ETV accepting nominations for women of vision
June 17, 2019Network will highlight 12 women leaders in second year of “Women Vision SC” initiative
South Carolina Educational Television (SCETV) today announced that the network is currently accepting nominations for year two of its “Women Vision SC” initiative. All nominations are to be submitted by July 17. A panel of judges will then vote on the finalists, which will be highlighted next spring across SCETV’s various platforms.
Established by former SCETV President and CEO Linda O’Bryon, who also serves as the project’s executive producer, “Women Vision SC” is an initiative that focuses on issues affecting women throughout the state and nation. It also provides a platform to highlight trailblazing women that have made an impact, as well as the generation of young people pursuing public service for their communities and South Carolina.
The inaugural “Women Vision SC” project recognized 11 women, including former South Carolina Chief Justice Jean Toal and former South Carolina Superintendent of Education Inez Tenenbaum. Year two of “Women Vision SC” is especially poignant as 2020 marks the 100th anniversary of the passage of the 19th amendment, which granted women the right to vote.
