- Jason Richard (Iowa State University)
Abstract
This session will share the presenters' experiences of being placed in the position of living as a minority. The presenters will also explore the stories of the audience members who have been placed in similar situations. The goals for this session are (1) to identify feelings and emotions of being a non-minority student placed in a minority position, (2) to explore how we can learn from each other's experiences, and (3) to look at how we can use these experiences to create a more welcoming environment for minority students.
