About this event
YOUR VOICE MATTERS
Join us for this 2-day event!
Attendees are welcome to attend any or all sessions
Constitutional rights plague the political platform; however, most individuals lack the capabilities to discern the nuances associated with the law. And unfortunately, undergraduate students often underestimate their voice for various reasons ranging from inexperience to fear. Due to this compound situation, some individuals are often not empowered to raise their voices in any situation.
This lack of knowledge/or status often places individuals into self-imposed silos that marginalize their voices. This 2-day event will peel back constitutional rights in relationship to the lack of inclusivity based on numerous “isms” within society. The focus will be on empowering the undergraduate population and ALL marginalized voices.
This undergraduate conference will be an opportunity for students to disseminate knowledge, network and challenge each other on current events.
