BIPOC Transfer Student Alumni Panel & Resource Connection
On October 20th we hosted the first BIPOC Transfer Student Alumni Panel and Resource Connection event as a part of National Transfer Student Week. The online event began with a BIPOC transfer student alumni panel. Following the facilitated discussion, the panel opened up for a general Q&A where attendees were able to ask questions directly to panelists. Breakout rooms were then opened and students were able to choose to join a room to speak with advisors, resource center staff, etc. As part of the event, we also released the resource map.
