Panel | 3:00-4:40pm | MLK Room Refreshments & Networking | 4:30-6:00PM | 110A Part of The Ohio State University's 2020 Vision is to make the university a model of inclusive excellence. What does this look like in the STEM disciplines across our institution? We aim to have a dialogue about the barriers that inhibit persistence and success in STEM, particularly among under-represented minority, first-generation, low-income, and female students. Invited panelists with share their experiences effectively engaging and promoting the success of diverse student populations through inclusive educational practices, extra-curricular activities, and/or policies. The event will feature a keynote by Dr. Quinn Capers, IV, Associate Dean of Admissions at The Ohio State University's School of Medicine followed by a panel featuring representatives from various STEM fields at Ohio State whose work has helped to make STEM disciplines more accessible to under-represented minorities.
