Subject: Graduate Student Diversity Discussion Group<BR>
<BR>
Hello Campus Partners,<BR>
<BR>
The Center for Intercultural Programs has started a pilot program for graduate students who are interested in diversity and social justice issues. Our monthly Graduate Student Diversity Discussion Group sessions will feature a writer whose work will shape what we hope will be a critical conversation about the ways that culture shapes/impacts students' education, professional goals and commitment to ending oppression in all of its forms.<BR>
<BR>
Please send this email and flyer to any students you think might be interested in attending our first session featuring a discussion about William Jelani Cobb, author of The Substance of Hope: Barack Obama and the Paradox of Progress. <BR>
<BR>
Students who RSVP for the event will receive a short excerpt from Cobb's book that will guide the discussion. However, we also hope that this Group will provide students a space to network and share their research interests as well as ask questions and seek support!<BR>
<BR>
If students have any questions, please do not hesitate to send them my contact information.<BR>
<BR>
Thanks,<BR>
<BR>
