Different buildings had conversations that were impactful on their own equity journey. Individuals had dialogue that made them vulnerable and helped to push the needle, in a critical, needed way. patterson_n https://padlet.com/patterson_n/vu9c424cx22i8i2t/wish/2644431221 2023-07-13 13:13:08 UTC https://padlet.com/patterson_n/vu9c424cx22i8i2t/wish/2644431221 Celebration: There was impact and collaboration with students and departments in various buildings.
