Registration Deadline: Nov 29, 2022 09:00 AM
Our multiple, intersectional identities are intrinsically tied to how we find and show up at work - so let's chat about it!
This event is an interactive dialogue co-hosted by Career Exploration & Education and Student Engagement.
Grab a cup of tea or coffee, and join us to...
- Explore, question, and challenge the idea of "professionalism" in the workplace, while reimagining anti-racist alternatives
- Learn how to advocate for yourself and others, both on campus and in the workplace
- Construct your self-knowledge by engaging in dialogue with others
- Discuss how to build structures of safety and communities of support, both on campus and in the workplace
Who is this session for?
- While this session centers and prioritizes the experiences of Black students and recent alumni, we welcome and encourage all students and recent alumni to attend. Building anti-racist communities of care and support, in work and beyond, is a collective responsibility.
- We begin our sessions with a short presentation, followed by dialogue and space to connect between and across the intersections of our identities. In the last fifteen minutes, we will move into a process of co-exploring and reimagining the world of work as it relates to our identities.
- Please note that this session is virtual, and will occur over Zoom.
