I’m so thankful to Black women. I shared the post that I am looking for at least 100 Black women to fill out my survey. I only had 31. In the past 24 hours, Black women have shown up and showed out! I’m now up to 70. If you haven’t filled out this survey here is the link: fis82j57ioj.typeform.com/to/…

“My work is deliberate—to see Black students as assets, to lift up their experiences, to lift up their humanity. To help stakeholders in higher education design policies [and] create climates on campus for Black students to succeed.”
Replying to @BakerSchoolAU
@AU_SchoolofEd professor Brian McGowan's research is driven by a key question: How do minoritized individuals experience the college classroom? An expert in race and equity in higher education, he centers the perspectives of Black college students in his work. #AUChangeCantWait
