Three of our very own grad students will be presenting on their work and allowing you to ask questions. This was a very popular meeting last year as it gives everyone a chance to learn about interesting research that your fellow Black people are working on. We will have presentations from various fields of research so everyone should be interested.
As always, dinner will be provided, starting at 5:30pm. Hope to see you there!

1) One of our fellow grad students, Courtney Bonam, will present on the issue of Environmental Justice/Racism and how implicit racial biases could factor into the production of environmental racism.
2) We will hear from several BGSA members that have been involved with various diversity initiatives, and learn how we, as a student organization, can become more involved with the efforts to recruit and retain a diverse graduate student and faculty population.
3) You love Black people and wouldn't miss a chance to see our pretty faces.
So I hope to see you out. 5:30pm in Hacienda Commons. As always, dinner will be provided.
Thanks to the Vice Provost of Graduate Education for support of BGSA Monthly Academic Seminars!
