QUOTABLES:
“The thing that I found after many years in higher education is that we are part of an incredible community that does want to connect and share.”
“It's so critically important for us to also focus on the heroic work of our frontline staff, many of whom have been required to come to campus and are often the overlooked part of our population. So as we're talking about retention, we're also talking about building community. And that heroic work happening right now should be front and center for all of us as part of our call to action.”

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!
Such a great approach on the different perspectives surrounding diversity and how it affects all communities! Enjoying each episode!
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.
