“A true pioneer for women in business in Arkansas and across our region, Dr. Mary Ann Greenwood set an example for leadership, integrity and service that leaves a lasting legacy on Northwest Arkansas and the entire state,” said Dr. Donald R.

On behalf of the Board of Trustees and the leadership across the system, I want to extend our deepest sympathies to Dr. Reed Greenwood and the Greenwood family, and to Mary Ann’s many friends and associates who are mourning her loss today. ”
