Be a part of I Feel Seen, a transformative three-part series designed to uplift and empower Black and Brown women staff in higher education.
This series* celebrates strengths, acknowledges contributions, and creates a space for amplifying voices of Black and Brown women. All people are welcome to come together to explore strategies for growth and leadership that foster belonging, support, and advancement.
Black and Brown women in mid-to-senior level staff roles are shaping the future of higher education with passion, resilience, expertise, and vision. As Black and Brown women continue to break barriers, this series provides a platform to connect, inspire, and share wisdom and community that propels Black and Brown women forward.
Throughout the series presenters and participants will cultivate a strong professional network while honor the collective journeys, and create intentional pathways for purposeful growth and impact of Black and Brown women.
*This series was made possible in part by the College of Arts and Humanities' "Harmony of Interdisciplinary" fellowship program.
Additional collaborators/sponsors include the School of Public Health, Anti-Black Racism Initiative, and Division of Student Affairs.
We invite you to join us for the first event of the series, Roots and Resilience: Understanding Our History and Impact, where we will reflect on the legacy and lived experiences of Black and Brown women in leadership roles in higher education. This panel event will create a space for reflection, celebration, and collective strategizing, honoring both the challenges we've faced and the remarkable impact we've had in shaping the higher education landscape.
