MAJOR WINS: Promoting the Social and Academic Advancement of BIPOC Womxn in the Sciences

Today, institutions are faced with a complex challenge: revitalizing student engagement in a landscape marked by growing financial concerns, shifts in campus culture and traditions, and a need to reassess what motivates student involvement. Together, we'll delve into new student engagement trends, balancing access and motivation, fostering racial justice, and prioritizing student mental health, which is central to our exploration of how campus professionals can reengage students in a post-pandemic environment.

Learning outcomes:

• Learn more about the challenges and triumphs that Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) female-identifying students in the sciences face inside and outside of the classroom.
• Engage with colleagues at other colleges and university and share their own best-practices for supporting this student population.
• Leave the session with a tangible resource guide that will be generated during the session, possessing scholarly works and information from the presenters and their fellow participants.
