Did you miss our peer-to-peer discussion about the intersections of Race + Class last spring? Well now is your chance to join the conversation as we explore the relationship between race and socioeconomic status with the grounding question, "How do race and class shape your experiences on campus and beyond?"
The Office of Multicultural Student Affairs hosts the Emerging Minds Project (EMP) to facilitate intentional dialogue and reflection on issues of equity, inclusion and justice. Participants develop skills for becoming equitable and inclusive leaders and promoting the creation of a just, multicultural University of Chicago campus community.
EMP is open to all students, we hope to see you there! RSVP with our linktr.ee in the bio!
