(BOWIE, Md.) – The Daily Record has named Dr. Jacqueline Hill, chair of the Department of Nursing at Bowie State University to its 2022 listing of Maryland’s Top 100 Women.

Dr. Hill has more than 25 years of experience in higher education, is a published scholar and a certified nurse educator. Her research on mentoring includes a focus on African-Americans nurse leaders. She has mentored numerous faculty and students. Dr. Hill was appointed to the Maryland Board of Nursing by Governor Hogan in 2021.

Maryland’s Top 100 Women was founded in 1996 to recognize outstanding achievements by women demonstrated through professional accomplishments, community leadership and mentoring. More than 1,700 women have been presented with the honor over the years.

Nominees were selected based on their educational and career history, professional and community involvement, corporate and nonprofit board memberships, and mentoring experience, as well as recommendation from persons  familiar with their accomplishments professionally, in the community and through mentoring.

Eleven women will be inducted into the Circle of Excellence, receiving the award for a third and final time.

"This year's Maryland's Top 100 Women work hard, play hard and create better lives for their teams, their networks and their families. They are inclusive change agents who are not afraid to face adversity and stand up for what they believe," said Suzanne Fischer-Huettner, senior group publisher of The Daily Record. "Their community impact and commitment to mentoring are outstanding. We at The Daily Record are proud to honor them."

Maryland's Top 100 Women will be honored at a reception and awards celebration May 9. The event is open to winners, sponsors and a limited number of guests.

Winners will be profiled in a special magazine that will be inserted into the May 10 issue of The Daily Record and will be available online at TheDailyRecord.com.
