Wilson served as President of Radcliffe College from 1989 to 1999. She started several programs during her tenure. In 1991, she initiated the Radcliffe Research Partnership Program to foster undergraduate research opportunities. In 1993, she began the Radcliffe Public Policy Institute to encourage interdisciplinary research between scholars, policymakers, business and labor leaders, and members of the media. In 1993, Wilson, along with faculty members at Radcliffe College and six other Boston institutions, helped to start the Graduate Consortium in Women’s Studies to further advance scholarship in women's studies. After Harvard University and Radcliffe agreed to merge and created the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study in 1999, Wilson ended her tenure as president.[1]
She is a Trustee of the Committee on Economic Development, a Director of Myriad Genetics, Inc. and Inacom, Inc., and Honorary Trustee of the Massachusetts General Hospital, a member of the Board of Visitors for the University of Wisconsin College of Letters and Science, and a member of the Dean's Advisory Council of Newcomb College.[3][4]
