This week, First Workings Scholars attended our Workplace Diversity Workshop. As part of our larger discussion, we asked students, What does a desirable workplace look like for the next generation of employees? Check out some of their answers! #diversity #equity #inclusion

For my recent graduates in biostatistics. Your not alone, I feel the pressure too of "show me what you learned". It's all in our heads, "just keep going, just keep going" (Dory's voice). We'll find our way. Fighting against #ImpostorSyndrome #BlackInStats #MinoritiesInStem

It is so awesome to be exchanging knowledge with such brilliant faculty scholars in the MSRI African Diaspora Joint Mathematics Workshop @mathmoves! This is such an empowering experience!
Replying to @EKTBenn
@EKTBenn Thanks for the great day of learning and discussion! Our @mathmoves group learned about racial health disparities and the acronym DUMBO!

Locking arms with Asian Americans facing this lethal wave of anti-Asian terror. Their struggle is my struggle. Our struggle is against racism and White supremacist domestic terror.
On the day @StopAAPIHate released a report documenting nearly 3800 incidents of anti-Asian hate during the pandemic - nearly 70% against Asian women - a man killed 8 in shootings targeting Asian businesses. Six of the 8 killed were Asian women. theguardian.com/us-news/2021…

I love the parallels drawn in this podcast about current topics. Check them out. @LathaniaB outhttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/episode-3-what-has-happened-to-our-community/id1528448467?i=1000489556099
I am considering some "next step" options; phd programs are one of them. Any advice on programs that has to do with any of these keywords (social, health care, policy, data science, operations, statistics, disparities analytics) ?
