The Graduate School is hosting this interactive workshop that will inform participants about the historical context for exclusionary systemic structures, procedures, and practices. Participants will explore their values and have the opportunity to practice inclusive mentoring strategies that challenge and dismantle barriers to equal participation.

The workshop will take place on Feb. 21 from 9 a.m. - 4 p.m. A boxed lunch will be provided. A break will occur between 12-1 p.m., enabling you to take a break and eat your lunch. Students are expected to be able to attend the entire day, given that the material is cumulative.

The pilot program will be taught by a group of collaborators, including:

• Alycia Mosley Austin, Associate Dean of Diversity and Inclusion, Brown University
• Adán Colón-Carmona, Professor of Biology, University of Massachusetts Boston
• Bruce Biren, Institute Scientist and Director, Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard
• Katalin Szelenyi, Associate Professor of Leadership in Education, University of Massachusetts Boston
• Diedra Wrighting, Executive Director ADVANCE Office of Faculty Development, Northeastern University

Deadline to apply: Feb. 3

Eligibility: Current doctoral students who have some mentoring experience.
