With the small group size, each participant had the opportunity to voice their ideas. Everyone was able to make eye contact and the conversation flowed more naturally with the two speakers and the participants jumping off of others’ ideas. This setting drove the conversation in unexpected but helpful ways and helped those in attendance make deeper connections.
We talked about NCR, adaptability and career-long learning but also about the structure of undergraduate study, the future of funding in the US and the world, and higher education overall.
We received great feedback from the participants and also the speakers! A big thanks to our eighteen participants for coming out!
