Dr. Jane Mullen has spent the past few years looking at how positive leadership can affect workplace safety for young workers in New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. The study, for which she received $90,000 in Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council funding, found that there is no neutral position for organizational leaders. Mullen is now turning her attention to the darker side of leadership — how a leader's abusive practices can make you feel miserable or, at worst, lead to serious physical injuries.

Why Mount Allison? I had gone on a road trip with friends to the East Coast and I fell in love with it. I applied to all of the smaller places around, but Mount Allison won me over because on my acceptance letter there was a little handwritten note that mentioned Germany and was specifically for me. I thought if they are going to put that much effort into someone who might be coming to the University, imagine how much they will put into a student who is actually there.

I chose Mount Allison for its small community and reputation for providing a great education. Now that I’m here, I love it for so much more — the friendly environment, the small class sizes that allow me to experience one-on-one relationships with my professors, and sitting outside the Swan Pond in the Spring.
