2014 Diversity Dialogue Conference: Collaboration, Innovation and Leadership

January 24, 2014
9:00 a.m. - 6:00 p.m. EST
Location: Rafik B. Hariri Building Map

Georgetown Aspiring Minority Business Leaders and Entrepreneurs (GAMBLE) and the McDonough School of Business Undergraduate Program Office invite students from all over the Washington, DC region to join us for the inaugural Diversity Dialogue Conference. This groundbreaking conference will feature distinguished keynotes who will inspire the next generation of corporate leaders to change the landscape and conversation about diversity and inclusion.
The Berkley Center and Center for New Designs in Learning and Scholarship will host the panel discussion:

The Doyle Engaging Difference Program and Diversifying Educational Experiences
There is much agreement around the importance of diversity in education, but that may mean something completely different for each one of us. How do issues of diversity affect students' and faculty members' experiences in and approaches toward education? Their current or future career interests? Life at Georgetown? What assumptions about diversity do we hold? How do those assumptions play out and how are those reinforced and/or challenged by our experiences here on the Hilltop? Please join us for a panel discussion with students and faculty about the role of diversity as it influences our educational experiences.

Panelists will include:
Doyle Faculty Fellows, alumni Aamir Hussain (COL ‘13) and Lauren Reese (COL '12), and moderator Sara Singha, Doctoral Candidate in Theology and Student Research Fellow, Berkley Center for Religion, Peace, and World Affairs.

The Doyle Engaging Difference Program, a campus-wide collaboration between the Berkley Center for Religion, Peace, and World Affairs and the Center for New Designs in Learning and Scholarship (CNDLS), is designed to deepen the university's own commitment to tolerance and diversity and enhance global awareness of the challenges and opportunities of an era of increasing interconnectedness. The Doyle Program is made possible by a generous gift from alumnus and Board of Directors member William J. Doyle (C'72).
