QUOTABLES:
“The idea that you can change someone's life in an hour and fifteen minutes twice a week was a heady notion for me and certainly much more rewarding than anything I had experienced in the practice of law.”
“You know what the future of work looks like, and it is not hourly low-wage trades. It is critical thinking, higher-order thinking skills, the ability to solve problems. People have yet to be replaced by machines, nor will they ever. Students with a baccalaureate degree are in the best position to take those jobs.”

What an amazing podcast! I’ve received so much value from these conversations and experiences. This podcast is shedding light on some very important topics, especially in todays climate. I have been loving every moment! Diverse In The Margins is most definitely worth the listen!
This is an amazing podcast. I am glad you are stepping up and talking about a sensitive topic that is not talked about enough. Thank you for sharing this information. It effects students in higher education and the effects carry over into the workforce when the students graduate. Some students are tainted because there was not enough taught on diversity and the students perspective are skewed.
Such an amazing platform. So many milestones have been made and so many more to come.
