The "Navigating Academia with Purpose" Series

Navigating academia carries a lot of stress, and that stress can multiply if you identify as a minoritized person. In collaboration with Refuge Workgroup, Psychin’ Out, and Black In Mental Health, this limited series will focus on unpacking the stress of navigating academia with purpose as a minoritized person, and seek to:

1. Normalize the stress brought on by pursuing goals at all levels of one’s academic journey
2. Describe stress specific to minoritized people during their academic journey
3. Discuss ways to manage emotions specific to different stages of one’s academic journey
4. Share helpful resources and discuss ways to build a community of support.

This series is moderated by Mani-Jade Garcia, in collaboration with Angelina Gomez, Sashana Rowe-Harriott, Aradhana Srinagesh, and Emily Turner.
