One of my favorite things about my first time at #ASEE2022 has been meeting like minded people. Nothing quite like having a lively chat about challenging rigor over beers with @SarahJaneBork @_Corey_B @JoeyValle13 @avneethira @_btrittipo @rob_loweth. @ASEE_DC @asee_sd

I had the opportunity to attend Dr. Vincent-Ruz’s @STEMxicanEd talk on #QuantCrit: supporting STEM marginalized students & exposing institutional systemic issues hindering their opportunities & success. Her thoughts energized me & excited to learn from such an amazing scholar!!
