Referred to Videos:
Have you ever wanted to host a program that covered a culturally sensitive topic but you did not know where to begin? Perhaps you were afraid you would say something offensive or maybe you did not know anyone knowledgeable enough about the topic. The average Mason student has an appetite for diverse and inclusive programming that 1) cover culturally relevant topics and 2), that are closely tied to identity. Attend this session if you want to learn not just how to do diverse and inclusive programming but how to do it well!
