The Thomas and Hilda Rush Distinguished Lectureship - Marcia Ditmyer

2026-09-24T22:00:00Z

Performing Arts Center Rhea E. Miller Recital Hall, Groening Commons Mezzanine East
Thursday, September 24, 2026, 6 – 7:30pm

Topic: From Dormancy to Delivery: Trust, Growth and the Alignment of Systems

Speaker: Marcia Ditmyer - Professor of Public Health, SVSU

Why do some people, organizations and communities thrive while others remain stuck?

In this year’s Rush Lecture, Marcia Ditmyer, professor of public health, explores what it takes to move unrealized potential into meaningful impact. Drawing on insights from neuroscience, leadership, public health and the science of human performance, this engaging presentation examines how trust, growth and aligned systems shape outcomes across education, health care and communities.

Blending compelling stories, practical examples and interdisciplinary perspectives, Ditmyer challenges audiences to rethink traditional models of leadership, collaboration and change. Attendees will leave with a renewed understanding of how environments shape behavior, why growth requires intentional practice, and what it takes to build systems capable of lasting impact.

== ABOUT THE SPEAKER ==

Marcia Mastracci Ditmyer, Ph.D., M.B.A., M.S., is a professor of public health at Saginaw Valley State University and former dean of the Crystal M. Lange College of Health and Human Services. An epidemiologist, wellness leader and advocate for systems change, Ditmyer’s work focuses on prevention, trust, partnerships and the alignment of systems to improve health and well-being. Throughout her career, she has advanced innovative collaborations at the local, state and national levels that connect education, health-care, workforce development and community organizations to expand access and opportunity. Her work in the Great Lakes Bay Region has focused on strengthening partnerships that support health, education and community vitality. Ditmyer currently serves as president of the Michigan Public Health Association and is a past chair of the Michigan Health Improvement Alliance.

== ABOUT THE LECTURE ==

The Thomas and Hilda Rush Distinguished Lectureship was established by Dr. and Mrs. Rush to recognize and reward SVSU staff and faculty members who, by their creation or development of significant scholarly or artistic work, have distinguished themselves and recognition to their University. The endowment provides the resources for an annual award to a faculty or staff member who, as the Rush Lecturer, will present his or her work in an academic convocation conducted for that purpose.
