Event: August 27, 2020 4:00 pm CDT
Join us for a kickoff of Humanities Without Walls’ (HWW) 2020-21 career diversity programming! In this virtual roundtable, hear from three HWW fellowship alumni about their experiences post-fellowship and the ways in which the Predoctoral Career Diversity Summer Workshop informed their career exploration and development. You’ll also learn how to apply for the 2021 workshop, which will be virtual in nature.
