Rice has many assets, one being its diverse community - even our alumni group is a mix of diverse perspectives, diverse skillsets, and diverse demographics. Research has proven repeatedly that diversity leads to stronger outcomes and higher returns on investments, but diversity can also lead to more tension. In order to leverage the benefits of diversity, one must learn how to work through this tension in a productive way. Take an afternoon to invest in your personal development and join us to work as a community to identify our implicit biases and develop strategies to overcome them.

We have hired a nationally recognized facilitator will be leading this program. This will be held Sunday, September 29th from 1:00-5:30 pm at Lilie. While this is an exclusive opportunity for Rice alumni, spots are limited. Please make sure to reserve your spot ASAP. If you are unable to attend, please notify Emily Messenger (emm12@rice.edu) so that your seat can be released to another alum.
