Student involvement allows students to engage with their peers & explore areas of interest. But as men of color, we may have to hold back parts of our identity or increase our sense of masculinity depending on the spaces.

Even as we move on into our professions, the want & need to continue to be involved in organizations such as Greek Letter Organizations (GLO's), industry based organizations, or even community based organizations may continue.


How are our identities as men of color supported in these spaces, as students & as professionals?

How are we navigating spaces where our identity/ies is not the focal point of the organization?

How do we want our involvement to look like in these organizations beyond college & how are our identities being showed & supported within them?


Come take part in an interesting conversation of how our involvement reflects our identities as men of color through dialogue & an activity.
