[NOTE: This is NOT an Honors only event]We are currently seeking proposals for presentations, panel discussions, workshops, and tabling activities and stationsthat engage attendees in conversations and reflections on DEI-J. Formal presentations, panels, and workshops will be 45 minutes in length, while tabling activities and stations are a great option for those who wish to engage in conversations, share resources, or facilitate interactive activities in a more informal, casual way with participants. Topics should encourage dialogue and exploration of DEI-J topics, with a focus on how they intersect with and shape higher education. We welcome submissions from any UConn student, student organization, department, faculty, or staff member. Whether you prefer to lead a structured 45-minute session or host a table with engaging activities and resources, we'd love to hear from you. More details will be given after submission.
