Diverse 25th Anniversary


Diverse 25th Anniversary: In observance of a quarter century of publishing the 25th Anniversary National Summit and Celebration will be THE professional development event for leaders in higher education as well as people and organizations that help institutions of higher education build their power and impact on behalf of students and faculty of color.

A virtual “who’s who” of American educational, political, and policy leaders will come together to reflect on where we have been for the last 25 years, but more importantly to develop action plans to successfully guide our collective future.

The purpose of this gathering is for all of us to work together to “raise the bar” on the quality of the curricula, outcomes, management, governance and leadership services that we provide in the field of education.
