Submit a Critical Conversation: It is essential that we have honest and productive conversations about race, diversity, equity, and inclusion, and the impact not only on individuals, but our institution. Critical Conversations grapple specifically with these topics, as well as the impacts of COVID-19, the 2020 elections, the U.S./Mexico border, and awareness of intersectionality. Our topics will evolve with today's realities, and we urge you to help us select future conversations. Submit an event or idea for a future critical conversation.
