The award goes toward public companies in the Philadelphia region with 30 percent or more women on their board of directors. Sallie Mae was among 11 other companies in the region to qualify.
“It’s gratifying to be recognized once again for the diversity of our Board, who share in and help guide our mission to make the dream of higher education a reality,” said Raymond J. Quinlan, chairman and CEO of Sallie Mae. “As an organization, we seek diversity not only in identity but also in thought, opinion, personality, and experience. We have those traits in abundance at Sallie Mae, which helps us continue to innovate and best serve our customers.”
