Panther talks are opportunities for our Global Majority leaders to come and speak to our scholars in a storytelling format with a Q&A at the end.  Story telling is an indigenous practice that has not been as highly regarded as it should be and was to many of our ancestors.  This practice allows for scholars to see people who look like them in various career fields.  We want to bring forward the excellence that is Global Majority people so our scholars recognize others are where they aspire to be and these are opportunities for them to begin their own stories.  To sign up for to be speaker at a Panther Talk please fill out the form below.  We will review your application and confirm your time slot.  Panther Talks are 45 minutes, every Wednesday from 1p-1:45p.
