This Summit was completely virtual - "Addressing the Leaky Pipeline in Academia in the Context of COVID-19". We featured two keynote speakers from UC Davis, Dr. Susan Keen and Dr. Devin Horton.

This Summit featured a keynote speech from Dr. Susan Keen who touched on concrete ways to meet students where they are and help them function on campus and be drivers in their own learning. This was followed by Dr. Devin Horton's keynote lecture, where she shared her personal journey as a Black, female student navigating academia. Dr. Horton also shared many wonderful resources which can be viewed in her talk on our 'Videos' page or our Youtube channel. We closed the event with small breakout groups to discuss actionable ideas to dismantle institutional racism within academia.  The virtual format allowed for increased accessibility and record breaking attendance, with over 150 people joining us for this year' Summit.
