Jennifer Rexford
Provost
Princeton University
She’s the leader of the state’s ultraimportant AI Hub while overseeing the academic affairs of the school — with a close eye on computer science and engineering, where she still serves as a professor. Her connection to the business world (she previously worked at Bell Labs) makes her a next-generation higher ed leader, someone worthy of being on the short list of potential presidents at any top university in the country.
